The twenty-eighth episode of the first season of ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom''.

When Swifty the Shrew arrives at the Unnamed Village, he wins the hearts of everyone, except for Sonic, whose status as the village's biggest hero is threatened. Sonic challenges Swifty to a race, where the winner will receive the rights to brag whenever he wants, but the loser has to leave town forever. Swifty wins the race and Sonic is banished, at which point Dr. Eggman reveals that not only is Swifty a robot, but one of many he built as part of his plan to turn the Unnamed Village into an amusement park run by him.

* EyeScream: When Sonic and Swifty race to save Chumley, sparks from a firecracker that Swifty picks up get in Sonic's eyes.
* LoserLeavesTown: Sonic challenges Swifty to a foot race around the village, with banishment as punishment for the loser. Sonic thinks his superior speed won him the race, but he soon finds out that Swifty had already beaten him to the finish line. Or rather, ''a'' Swifty crossed the line first, as Eggman reveals he'd built an army of Swifty the Shrews just to mess with Sonic.
* MythologyGag: Eggman's evil plan in this episode is to build [[VideoGame/SonicUnleashed his own]] [[VideoGame/SonicColors amusement park]].

* RoboticReveal: After Sonic is banished from the Unnamed Village, Dr. Eggman reveals that Swifty is not only a robot, but one of many as part of his plan to get Sonic banished so he won't interfere with his evil plan to turn the Unnamed Village into an amusement park run by him.
* SouvenirLand: After Eggman successfully gets Sonic banished and reveals his evil plan to build an amusement park, Amy questions if it even qualifies as evil, [[DumbassHasAPoint with Knuckles adding it might also create jobs]]. Eggman justifies it with the full list of these tropes.
-->'''Eggman:''' In my theme park empire, your entire village will be forced to wait in long lines, buy overpriced merch, and eat week-old turkey legs covered in... ''preservatives.''\\

* TakeThat: Swifty acts like a less than subtle parody of the TotallyRadical interpretations of Sonic used in the nineties. Amusingly, the Sonic of this universe finds him unbearable.
* ThatCameOutWrong: This exchange between Swifty and Tails after Sonic challenges Swifty to a race:
-->'''Swifty:''' Man, can you believe that guy? What a lameoid!\\
'''Tails:''' That lameoid is my best friend! That didn't come out right.
