Gender Bender | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_2d88e42c | comment |
Gender Bender: This is the main theme for the lawyer character that is progressively transitioned into a woman through the movie. Although usually genderbending happens through magic (or Applied Phlebotinum), here it happens entirely through unexpected physical surgeries that are also spread through time. This process is set in motion at the end of the first episode, when the character undergoes an accidental breast augmentation. Later in the movie we see him having breasts and wearing a bra as a result, although the character is still living and presenting as male. Mistaken for a transgender, he undergoes a second surgery, this time transitioning into a woman. As time passes, we find her performing belly dance as odalisque in a harem, dressed with skimpy clothing. When she talks with the protagonists, she describe her new life, that she pretty much accepted, as female servant and favorite concubine in the harem. First Law of Gender Bending: The lawyer transition is male-to-female. In accordance with this law, the transition becomes more and more undoable. In fact, the first unexpected surgery (breast augmentation) is technically reversible (removing the implants). The second surgery is almost irreversible as the lawyer has his male genitalia removed. As well, ending up as odalisque in a harem, the character is also not in a position to change back even if she wanted, especially with the role of favorite in the harem. Also, becoming a woman is seen as an inherent demotion, punishment, or loss of status. This movie is a typical example, although also interesting due to the modular transition. At first the lawyer becomes a man with breasts, this doesn't equals woman but a male individual with such prominent secondary sexual characteristics is a huge demotion, also represented by him wearing a lacy black bra (Third Law of Gender-Bending). The way this is revealed (Comedic Underwear Exposure) is super humiliating as well, publicly exposing his Unmanly Secret that combines Hidden Buxom and Man in a Bikini. Once transitioned into woman, she has became odalisque in an harem to confirm the acquired subordinate status. Third Law of Gender-Bending: After the first surgery, the character is still male, feels male and present as male. Although this is true, we also see this law is action as he is forced to adopt a gender appropriate garment in the form of a bra to support his female breasts. The bra itself it's black and lacy. | |

Man, I Feel Like a Woman | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_3a9bbb12 | comment |
Man, I Feel Like a Woman: This movie lacks a classical Man, I Feel Like a Woman moment for the simple reason that wants to keep the result of the breast augmentation surgery hidden until a reveal (see Hidden Buxom) and also because technically it is initially more a man that now has breasts than man-turned-woman situation, although the gender is later bent so this kind of overrides. Anyway there is a variation of this trope, as soon as the male character is accidentally stripped to his underwear revealing his pair of large breasts, he is grabbed and squeezed. This trope is basically enforced on him and works better as the implication is that the character had a breast augmentation by accident and he is weirded out by it but at the same time the events of the movie keeps pushing him towards becoming a woman, therefore the trope is bent into "man you feel like a woman". This is the variation of the events: | |

Boob-Based Gag | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_4045a37f | comment |
Boob-Based Gag: This is recurring through the movie. The first occurrence is when the male lawyer is mixed up with a female patient, while receiving anesthesia and surgeon comments is going to give "her" a pair of nice boobs. The poor guy moans before falling asleep, while the joke here is that a man is going to accidentally receive breast implants. Later in the movie, this character is stripped to underwear, revealing the result of surgery. The comedy here comes from the fact this guy has now female breasts and is wearing a bra. | |

You Are Fat | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_59b9f4df | comment |
You Are Fat: An overweight woman is one of the passengers in the plane episode. There are a few jokes targeting her. Also, her being overweight is the cause of her demise since when the lane is upside down, she causes the seat to detach, break through the roof and fall down. | |

Sharp-Dressed Man | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_87ab7f69 | comment |
Sharp-Dressed Man: The lawyer character is always shown in well-tailored two-piece suit, shirt and tie. This contrasts with the way is treated (victim of insults and injuries). His suit ends up trashed (Comedic Underwear Exposure in both the first and third episode). Highlighting even more what happens to him through the movie, once trasformed into a woman, she is shown wearing a skimpy bellydancer outfit that is very very distant from the well-tailored suit. | |

Tap on the Head | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_b1a7cd14 | comment |
Tap on the Head: At the beginning of the movie the lawyer is helping a victim of a motorcycle accident. When the ambulance arrives, he is hit on the head by the vehicle and immediately incapacitated. A couple of minutes later, after a nasty kick in the groin (see Groin Attack), he is on the vehicle and, while he is protesting, he is hit on the head, voluntarily this time, with an oxigen tank that puts him out again and for much longer. | |

Strapped to an Operating Table | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_bc452029 | comment |
Strapped to an Operating Table: A few variations. A man is strapped to a stretcher by two lunatic male nurses. Since he is complaining too much, he is knocked out with an oxygen bottle and a Minnie Mouse mask is placed on his head. The same man (he is The Chew Toy) finds himself on an operating table where he takes the place of a female patient. Before even understanding what is going on, an anesthesia mask is placed on his face. A doctor comes in and the man learnings they are going to perform a breast augmentation on him. He starts moaning but is not able to alert about the patient mix-up and passes out. For a second time the same man finds himself on an operating table. He has been stripped to underwear revealing he has now a pair of breasts and he is wearing a lacy bra. A surgeon with comically large scissors approaches, implying he is going to have a sex reassignment. At this point he just passes out. | |

| Le Comiche 2 / int_e59315cf | comment |
Height Angst: The main victim (the lawyer) is messed with on a constant basis. Among other things, he is rather short and mocked for his stature on multiple occasions. In the worst case he is "mistaken" for a hold luggage by Paolo Villaggio and almost thrown in airplane trunk. | |

Groin Attack | |
| Le Comiche 2 / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Groin Attack: At the beginning of the movie the lawyer is laying unconscious in the street after being hit by an ambulance, while taking care of him, one of the nurses accidentally kicks him in the groin. Later in the movie it is Renato Pozzetto that suffers a groin attack, being hit by the cane of a blind passenger on a plane while he is dressed as a female flight assistant. Also, during the last section (Santas episode) a character is victim of groin attacks, his groin being smashed into a piano (between fingerboard and cover) and hit by a water-jet later. | |

Comedic Underwear Exposure: The main recurring victim is accidentally stripped to his underwear, revealing he is wearing a bra supporting breasts he received during an undesired augmentation surgery. The joke is entirely based on the fact that this guy is forced to wear a female garment due to the newly acquired assets. | |
