Headscratchers / The Awesomes

• Why did Impresario's powers not work on escaping from the simulation room until he learned they didn't come through his gem? The program only took into account if it WAS because of the gem...but that was already wrong from the get go. Why would him thinking they came from the gem and then realizing they weren't change anything?
  • Maybe it was a mental thing, he thought his powers were not going to work so they didn't, regardless of the reality.
• If Mr. Awesome's blood is the cure for the evil serum, why does him getting the serum turn him evil?
  • Evil cells are relatively higher, so perhaps Mr. Awesome didn't have strong enough cells or the evil cell count in Mr. Awesome's blood was higher than his own.
• So in the final showdown with Mr. Awesome, why didn't Prock just use his time-stopping powers to inject his dad? They could have skipped the whole fight with Perfect Man and caused less damage and harm overall.
  • Throughout the series, Prock was rather shy about revealing his powers to his teammates, and considering how powerful his dad is, it's likely he figured the team would find it too coincidental for him to be beaten so easily, thus forcing Prock to reveal his powers, which he may not have been ready for. Also, Mr. Awesome seems to be the only one in the series to know about Prock's powers, and therefore may have a technique to counter them, so Prock probably decided to use his powers as a last resort, as it may have been too risky.
