Question

If Star-Lord plays Bait and Switch, but during the villain attack flips to alter-ego with Bad Boy, can he still reply with Turn the Tide if Bait and Switch clears all the threat off the main scheme? He is currently in alter-ego, but he played Bait and Switch in hero, so does this meet the condition for “your hero thwarts and removes threat”?

Answer

You would not be able to play Turn the Tide in the scenario described, because you were in Alter-Ego form when the last threat was removed from the scheme. “Your hero” did not “remove all threat from a scheme”, your Alter-Ego form did.
