* MeanCharacterNiceActor[=/=]NiceCharacterMeanActor: It turns out that the TV shows we watched as kids were broadcasted messages from the Toones' home planet made as a sign of peace between Earth and Toone. It's shown that heroic and good characters (like Popeye, Yogi Bear, and Numbuh Five) have the same personalities while the cameras aren't rolling, and "villainous" characters (like Mandark and Swiper) are equally good and kind off-screen. Unfortunately, the opposite also applies. Characters who act friendly (like Flapjack or Foghorn Leghorn) or are a JerkWithAHeartOfGold (JFK or Eddy) reveal themselves as arrogant, malicious or even murderous, either by circumstance or because they were always like that offset.

* LogicalWeakness: [[spoiler:Cue Card: Full Script is incredibly powerful, sure, but in the end it IS still made up of cards, and if those cards are damaged, then Full Script goes down with it - at least, if Five having to swap places with Courage is anything to go by. It also does seem to have a size limit, as evidenced by Five only taking in one car of the train.]]



** [[spoiler:Similarly, [[RealityWarper for all her power while in Full Script,]] Five still has a mortal mind and can't focus on everything at once, which can cause...''issues'' considering the kind of power she has. This is best demonstrated during the Emergency Arc, where she spends most of it fighting Eddy off-screen, and the unfortunate human bystanders who are also caught in Full Script get some [[SarcasmMode lovely]] AndIMustScream on account of Full Script showing them some alternate timelines while Five is preoccupied.]]
