- The second one occurs before the Battle City finals, as Parker escapes prison to take revenge. He does this by teleporting them into an old horror movie and transforming them into classic movie monsters, expecting this to drive them to evil acts and somehow convince them that his views are right. Naturally, this doesn't happen, as the only one who acts remotely evil is Edwin (and that's only because he's the Invisible Man and the invisibility is driving him insane), and he quickly scares Parker enough that he undoes the transformation.
- The third one occurs during the Battle City finals, with Edwin and the others crossing paths with Mystery Inc. when the latter visit Japan.
