* Ma Bagge abused and neglected Eustace through most of his childhood. Bad enough, but far from her only candidate. In "Bad Hair Day" he kidnapped and experimented on people including Muriel for her firm, in the "Mc Phearson Phantom" she planned with the titular phantom to ''cripple'' Eustace, ''her own son'' and frame Muriel for it, intended to abandon the Bagges to a sand-whale in "The Sand Whale Strikes" and attempted genocide against an underwater population of little creatures for her firm's sake in "Scuba Scuba Doo".

* There is also Benton Tarantella from "Everyone Wants to Direct". The sadist zombie who is actually a former serial killer who, with help from his partner Errol (who was pretty bad himself too), posed as an amateur filmmaker wanting to direct in his victims homes. After they let the two in, they would kill them. Now he plans to bring Errol back to life so they could continue their killing spree, [[DesignatedVictim starting with Muriel and Eustace]], obviously.
* The bullfrogs cross it in "Feast of The Bullfrogs" when they try to cook Eustace and Muriel and eat them. That is when they go from understandable motives (wanting a new pond) to being needlessly evil.

* Vastabael Backjurius from "Mission to the Sun" gets a big one. He takes over Muriel's mind and tries to sabotage the mission of keeping the sun from going out, [[FridgeHorror which will kill all life on earth.]] But not before messing with Muriel's personality and body [[ForTheEvulz for fun]]. He also tries to kill Eustace and does it all with a sadistic laugh.

* Eustace crosses this in "Ball for Revenge" when he gathers up many villains to kill Courage [[DisproportionateRetribution over a blanket]] and even puts Muriel in harm's way (and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking puts her laundry on the rough setting]]) to force Courage's hand. That is, if he didn't cross it in "The Magic Tree of Nowhere," when he -- despite flat-out talking with said Tree, thus proving its sentience -- chops it down solely because it was was providing for Muriel more than he could.

** If one takes the WordOfGod into account, Eustace potentially crossed this before the series even began. Muriel used to pine for someone else rather than Eustace, but through some "dark, unknown deed", somehow he wooed her over instead. Considering how dysfunctional their marriage is and that Eustace does everything in his power to exploit Muriel for his own benefit, this makes him dangerously realistic for a {{Jerkass}} that wanted things his way.
