Although Crystal succeeds in beaming the defeated Centurions out of danger, they're unable to fight back, and with Max seriously injured, they're forced to abandon Sand Castle to Uniborg. To find out who the new villain is and how can "he" be defeated, Ace and Jake confront the captured Doc Terror, demanding his help to stop Uniborg. Doc Terror reveals "who" Uniborg really is, but refuses to help the heroes. As Uniborg takes over Fire Castle (in exchange for sparing the injured Jake's life) Doc Terror grows desperate to see Uniborg coming closer to achieve world domination, and demands to see Ace to help him take out the rogue AI — but Terror will help the Centurion in his own terms: have himself and Hacker released, and thus be left on their own to recapture Dominion and deal with Uniborg, while Ace is left on Ice Castle to defend it and distract Uniborg.
Tropes Xtreme!:
- Ambiguous Situation: Does Terror actually destroy Uniborg? We never find out for sure, but we never see Uniborg again (at least not as Uniborg) either.
- Big Damn Kiss: Ace gives one to Crystal (much to her chagrin) by the end of the episode, after they wager a kiss for Ace returning in one piece after repelling Dominion's Mecha-Mooks from Ice Castle.
- Enemy Mine: Terror and the Centurions are forced to work together to stop Uniborg...
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: ...which is the last thing anyone wants, but circumstances leave them no choice.
- A Form You Are Comfortable With: Uniborg uses a hologram to appear as a human when "he" pulls a Do Not Adjust Your Set to announce its intentions to take over the world. Other than Doc Terror and Hacker, who know Uniborg's true AI nature, everyone on Earth, including the Centurions, is convinced by the illusion and (initially) believes Uniborg to be a human.
- Pet the Dog: Hacker grabs the Kindness Ball, reverting to childlike docility while separated from Terror.
- Reformed Criminal: Defied by Doc Terror; he insists this won't happen.Terror: I will never repent, never reform!
- On the other hand, it's clear that Hacker would be nicely reformed were he to be kept from Terror's influence. Unfortunately, Status Quo Is God, so Hacker is free and back to being Terror's henchman by the end.
- Status Quo Is God: Good news: Uniborg is defeated! Bad news: To accomplish this, the Centurions have to let Terror go, and he immediately starts threatening the world again.
- Teleportation Rescue: How Crystal saves the Centurions at the beginning of the episode.
