Line 3:
* '''Straight''': The intelligent Smith is an [[Insufferable Genius]] who is quick to anger and has a permanent scowl on his face; Dunsworth is slow-witted but is a very nice and gentle person.
* '''Exaggerated''': Smith is an [[Evil Genius]]; Dunsworth is practically [[The Messiah]].
* '''[[Up to Eleven]]''': What is considered good disappears at the moment one has an IQ higher than 100. [[
* '''Downplayed''': Both characters aren't outright good or evil. Smith just wears [[Jade-Colored Glasses]] while Dunsworth is a bit of a [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]].
* '''Justified''':
Line 9:
** Smith and Dunsworth are in a [[Crapsack World]], where being neutral or downright evil are expected. Dunsworth simply [[Too Dumb to Fool|wasn't smart enough to understand said norm.]]
* '''Inverted''': Dunsworth is dumb but is incredibly rude; Smith is intelligent and incredibly nice to people.
* '''Subverted''': Smith seems to be a far better person than Dunsworth.
* '''Double Subverted''': ...But Smith is really a an [[Evil Genius]] and a [[Villain with Good Publicity]], whereas Dunsworth is the hero who is trying to stop him, and has gained some undeserved bad publicity in the process, making him seem meaner.
* '''Parodied''': The two men are literally only defined by their intelligences.
