* [[Emo Teen]]: Hank in season four.
* [[Equal Opportunity Evil]]: in Ünderland, both men and women are apparently subject to conscription into Baron von Ünderbheit's army until age 38, at which point [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]].
* [[Eskimos Aren't Real]]: In "Ghosts Of The Sargasso":
{{quote|'''Hank''': Brock, if pirates are real, then all bets are off! Santa Claus could be real! The Easter Bunny could be real!
'''Brock''': Hank, no one said pirates aren't real. }}
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Rusty Venture (who's just very, ''very'' morally ambiguous, as opposed to evil) {{spoiler|refusing to clone Hitler in the season four opener}}.
* [[Everyone Went to School Together]]: Rusty was in college with Baron von Ünderbheit (similar to [[Captain Ersatz|Doctor Doom]]'s relation with [[Fantastic Four|Reed Richards]]), as well as Pete White, Brock Samson, and the Monarch. This is quickly [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by Hank. Also, Professor Impossible was one of their teachers.
Line 614 ⟶ 611:
** And Ginny, who is clearly attracted to Brock and considers him the only real man she's ever met.
* [[Reed Richards Is Useless]]: For all his money problems Doc Venture never considers selling cloned organs. However, the clone slugs seem to grow in real time, so doing so wouldn't be very fast. He ''was'' able to make a "quick and dirty" clone of a boy who died in "The Buddy System," but the quality of that clone was pretty questionable.
* [[EskimosReindeer Aren't Real]]: In "Ghosts Of The Sargasso":
{{quote|'''Hank''': Brock, if pirates are real, then all bets are off! Santa Claus could be real! The Easter Bunny could be real!
'''Brock''': Hank, no one said pirates aren't real. }}
* [[Replacement Goldfish]]: In the season four premiere, 21 tries to convince Dr. Venture to clone {{spoiler|24}}. However, as the only payment he can come up with is a vintage comic book, Doc declines. In "Handsome Ransom", Capt. Sunshine seeks to make Hank his new Wonderboy. It's clear he's desperately trying to use Hank to replace his slain sidekick because he's not ready to deal with it, spoiling and sheltering him for fear that he'll feel that loss again.
* [[Reunion Revenge]]: "Past Tense" centers on Dr. Venture, Brock, Pete White and Baron Ünderbheit being kidnapped by a supposedly ({{spoiler|and actually}}) dead college classmate for their "crimes" against him - all of which are extremely minor, petty pranks which he thinks ruined his chances with the girl of his dreams (they didn't; he was a total loser and she wasn't interested).
