Love Dodecahedron | |
| Island Of Lost Girls / int_4523420b | comment |
Love Dodecahedron: Compared to the next generation the older characters have a much more complicated past. Rhonda's father Clem was married to Peter and Lizzy's mother Aggie. But Aggie cheated on Clem with his best friend Daniel. Clem got married then to Justine, Rhonda's mother. But As Aggie and Daniel's marriage falls apart, Aggie briefly cheats with Clem while Daniel instead cheats with Tock's mother Laura Lee and molests his own daughter Lizzy. | |

"Scooby-Doo" Hoax | |
| Island Of Lost Girls / int_4b9a8e96 | comment |
"Scooby-Doo" Hoax: The abduction and predatory interactions are done by someone dressed up in a giant rabbit costume which actually appeals to the victim but provides the usual incredulous response by the police and witness as this trope normally inspires. | |

Not What It Looks Like | |
| Island Of Lost Girls / int_52d1f46e | comment |
Not What It Looks Like: Rhonda makes several judgments that assumes Peter's guilt at something that he was innocent of. When she learns he was seen with a woman who might be Lizzy and a child at the motel she worried they had kidnapped Ernie. It turns out the girl was Lizzy's own daughter. Later Rhonda finds a dirty child's shoe in Aggie's house which she believes was Ernie's when in reality it belonged to Suzy. | |

Surprise Incest | |
| Island Of Lost Girls / int_5bca5a56 | comment |
Surprise Incest: In-universe Rhonda fears this when she does the math and believes Peter is actually her biological brother. Though she turns out to have this wrong as Aggie cheated on Clem with Daniel before they got divorced so Peter wasn't biologically related to Rhonda. | |

Creepy Child | |
| Island Of Lost Girls / int_f3d5d15f | comment |
Creepy Child: Gretchen "Tock" Clark is introduced this way. She shoots flaming arrows and bb guns at the main trio from up in a tree and only agrees to be in their play if she can play a character that kills. She has grown out of this in the 2006 chapters but is still generally regarded as a wild personality. | |
