* InformedAbility: We hear a few of Paper Boi's songs on the radio, but Alfred is never actually shown rapping once in the entire series. It becomes a RunningGag that whenever Alfred is about to actually perform, either something happens to interrupt it or the camera cuts away.

** Flip-flops in the later seasons as Earn’s newfound wealth and power starts to go to his head, making him the Mean, Darius the Nice, and Alfred the In-Between.
Added DiffLines:
