* DiabolicalMastermind: In spite of the pointlessness of his beliefs and grand plot of eliminating summer vacation, Benedict was from stupid as his plan involves stealing a tractor beam from a military base without casualties, using Third Street Elementary as his main base of operations during the summer, rigging the school's front doors to teleport anyone inside the school in case anyone attempts to investigate, having the bald guy to pose as Prickly and cutting off all the school's phone lines to draw off the authorities, using a back-up generator when the students shut down the school's electrical system, and summoning more guards in case the students and teachers would show up to stop him. Even when the students and teachers manage to fight off Benedict's men, Benedict wastes no time in activating the tractor beam before having the mechanism jammed to ensure that his plot would succeed.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Benedict's mission to destroy recess and later summer vacation comes from a desire to improve students' test scores in the US. However, while he is not lying about this and [[InsaneTrollLogic genuinely believes]] [[KnightTemplar he's in the right]], the ''reason why'' he desires such is only because he thinks doing so will benefit & advance his career, make people view him as a hero, and possibly get him elected as President. Deep down, he couldn't care less about how anyone, especially not students, would feel or be negatively impacted about his actions. And that's without mentioning the fact that he has zero problem with creating a new Ice Age that would definitely be an ecological disaster for the entire world. Ultimately, Benedict only cares if ''he'' benefits from his "noble" actions.
