This disqualifies Alastair from the championship, which costs him a chance to go to college. Ricardo also gets chewed out on it by Alastair's sister, despite not being his fault. This makes Ricardo more jaded and cynical by the time he moves to Charter City.
- Despite the best efforts by the Flex Fighters to keep the Mantoids safe from the Extreme Hazard Unit, by the end of the story, they are under the control of Stretch Monster, who used the Flex Fighters to get a hold of them as Rook.
