When Vince save Mikey from getting hit by a dodgeball, Mikey wants to be just like Vince, to Vince's own chagrin.
Tropes:
- An Aesop: You're better off being yourself instead of copying someone wholesale.
- Be Yourself: Vince reminds Mikey that sports isn't the only cool thing in the world and tells him to take pride in what he excels at (like poetry).
- Here We Go Again!: The episode ends with Mikey saving Randall from being hit, and Randall admiring him for it.
- I Owe You My Life: Mikey to Vince, and Randall to Mikey
- Irritation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery: Mikey begins copying Vince's every move, down to wearing Vince's clothes and styling his hair to look like Vince's flat top. Vince turns the tables on him by dressing up like Mikey, after which they both admit to each other that they were meant to be themselves.
- Nightmare Sequence: Vince has one where Mikey has taken over his life.
- Trauma Button: Vince imitates Mikey to show how annoying this can be. However, Mikey actually has low self-esteem and thinks Vince was just making fun of him.
