Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat: Batty McBat in "Winging It", where he tries to put a boulder in Penny's path at one point. He also does this on his sister's behalf when she races Rod; this not only doesn't help her win but sends her bike completely out of control, which Rod rescues her from. | |

Top Wing / int_69681e01 | comment |
Big Brother Instinct: Brody decides not to attempt a canon ball off Extreme Peak, a tradition in his home town, in extremely windy conditions but the instant he realizes his little sister Brenda has been blown off, he dives after her. In the episode where we meet Rod's family, eldest of his younger siblings Romeo spends the whole episode jumping at the slightest noise and being freaked out by the differences of the island when compared to the family farm but when the family jalopy is going out of control with his younger brothers and sisters aboard, he overcomes his fear to assist in their rescue. | |

Hard Work Hardly Works | |
Top Wing / int_cc427069 | comment |
The series-wide moral is that Hard Work Hardly Works is a load of garbage; while talent may outlast hard work in the short term, hard work will almost always pay off over time and depending solely on talent will likely backfire. | |
