* InstantExpert: Discussed by Grandfather when Mr.Boss asks whether if [[spoiler:awakening Nigel's potential for the Uno family's powers is a bad idea, the former dismissing any concerns due to his beliefs that these powers take time to develop. The only thing Grandfather is worried about is if Nigel will be left alone to his own devices or if Monty tries to take him away from him]].
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: [[spoiler:Badass or no, Nigel is still only a child. Thus, when he wakes up sees he now has the very same powers that have harmed his friends so many times, and sees what those powers can do, his immediate reaction is to call for his dad and cry into his arms for comfort]].

Not So Different has been renamed, and it needs to be dewicked/moved


* NotSoDifferent: [[spoiler:When watching videos of some of Nigel's adventures from previous episodes, both Grandfather and Monty note that Nigel can be very vindictive and cruel, not unlike his evil relatives]].

* ParentalFavoritism: Grandfather's own favoritism even extends to his grandchildren. He is far more fond of his rebellious biological grandson than his obedient, adoptive grandchildren, in an eerie parallel to his relationship with his own sons.

Summary on Website/FanFictionDotNet: AU. Starts near the end of Operation Zero. What would have happened if the plan to launch the moon base at Grandfather had failed? Numbah Zero said there was no way on earth to defeat Grandfather, hopefully he was wrong.

Noted for exploring the relationship between the Unos, and particularly one where Nigel and Grandfather actually meet.

!!Tropes:
* AbusiveParents: The Unos, at least every other generation.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Unos. Grandfather's grandmother (Nigel's great-great grandmother) isolated him from the entire world for over a year, and forced him to choose which parent he wanted to see more whenever he was allowed a visit. Monty has heard loads of stories like that over the years, and notes that Grandfather must think he is a far better grandparent for allowing Nigel's parents to interact with him.
* CruelToBeKind: [[spoiler:A distraught Nigel accidentally burns his father. Grandfather forces Monty to show his son the burns so Nigel will be aware of the true scope of the power he now wields]].
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: [[spoiler:Grandfather awakens the already badass Numbuh 1's latent fire/shadow powers in Chapter Five]].
* EnsembleCast: While Nigel and Grandfather are ostensibly the main characters, everyone gets a chance to shine in the limelight.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Grandfather, EvilOverlord and all, is genuinely fond of his biological family, including Nigel. He just has a...''skewed'' way of showing it, due to his own messed up childhood.
* FightingFromTheInside: It's implied that a citi-zombified Numbuh 362 isn't completely loyal.
* ForWantOfANail: A world where Grandfather won.
* LaResistance: Those that managed to either avoid or reverse being citi-zombified, led by the rest of Sector V.
* ParentalFavoritism: Grandfather's own favoritism even extends to his grandchildren. He is far more fond of his rebellious biological grandson than his obedient, adoptive grandchildren, in an eerie parallel to his relationship with his own sons.
* PubertySuperpower: The reason Monty doesn't have his powers is because he lacked an appropriate trigger to awaken them within the age window. [[spoiler:The same thing would've probably happened to Nigel had Grandfather not gotten his hands on him]].
* RealityEnsues: [[spoiler:Badass or no, Nigel is still only a child. Thus, when he wakes up sees he now has the very same powers that have harmed his friends so many times, and sees what those powers can do, his immediate reaction is to call for his dad and cry into his arms for comfort]].
* RelationshipUpgrade: Wally and Kuki finally confess their feelings for each other and become a couple -- [[PuppyLove or at least as much of a couple as two ten year olds can be]].
* VillainRespect: Unlike Father, Grandfather is very appreciative of his biological grandson's many skills and feats. Then again, Grandfather wasn't the one getting his plans constantly foiled.
* VillainTakesAnInterest: Nigel is very unhappy that Grandfather has become interested in him. [[spoiler:An interest that becomes even stronger when Nigel's powers manifest and he starts showing an uncanny ability to control them]].
* VillainousLegacy: Father and Grandfather are just the latest in a long line of supervillains from the Uno family. Monty and his line are the first to reject the "family business", so to speak, something that Grandfather intends to correct.
