Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Stoic and cold he may appear to be, but Otis has a soft spot for Olympia that makes it clear their partner chemistry is very strong. | |

Instantly Proven Wrong | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: Olympia is so confident that she and Otis have strong partner chemistry that she goes so far as to claim they (metaphorically) share a brain. She then asks Otis what she's thinking about at the moment, and he answers with "This book", only for her to correct him by saying that she was actually thinking about pandas. | |

Secret Room | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_1605e350 | comment |
Secret Room: One of the rooms that is found in some Headquarters is aptly named the Secret Room. It's not revealed what's inside, and when asked what is on the door that indicates what's inside, the response is "Oh no, you already know too much." | |

Masochist's Meal | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_1bfe5406 | comment |
Masochist's Meal: Orvalsson, a Viking agent hailing from Norway, used to eat Hydroclopses for breakfast. Yes, he ate what is essentially, in this universe, Cthulhu. The only thing that made him stop was him growing tired of eating Hydroclopses and switching over to eating cornflakes. There's a good reason why he has a tooth gap. | |

Stealth Pun: Olive tells the reader that "we're all counting on you" when giving her goodbyes. Otto removes all substance of "stealth" from the trope and points out that he thinks she said that because Odd Squad dabbles in a lot of mathematics. A pie chart that cites the reasons for replacement uniforms has "pie stains" as the most common reason, at 75%. | |

| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_20e1cb81 | comment |
Weird World, Weird Food: The Odd Squad Cafeteria menu has both normal food options and "Odd Options" (meant as a parody of healthy options on school lunch menus) that are upgraded but bizarre versions of the normal food options. Such delights presented every weekday include Patio Thai, Scrambled Toast with Gregs (whether they're human Gregs remains up for debate), and Assorted Piano Keys, among others. | |

Heroic Vow | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_21af9165 | comment |
Heroic Vow: The Odd Squad Oath is recited after the Odd Squad Anthem and must be read with one hand on your head and another on your stomach (with agents who have multiple hands being encouraged to shake all of their hands). Whomever wrote it, however, seems to be greatly regretting doing so, and delivers some Self-Deprecation by calling it "long and sour". | |

Black Comedy | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: In the "Welcome to Odd Squad" section, it states that Odd Squad isn't top-secret...and then mentions a Mind-Erase-inator gadget that doesn't need to be used because Odd Squad agents have no Secret Identities to protect. Floating sandwiches could potentially be considered an odd creature in Odd Squad due to a rumor among agents that there are tiny creatures living in them that make them float, which puts Oprah eating one in "First Day" into an entirely new light. The instructions for doing Brain Sit-Ups tell agents that if they for some reason can't find their brain, to borrow another agent's brain instead, which implies that lobotomy is a thing in the world of the franchise. | |

Hellish Horse: Unicorns are known enemies of Odd Squad who enjoy causing oddness, which serves as Fridge Logic as to why agents have been known to either eat them and their parts, or if the episode "Oona and the Oonabots" is any indication, dispose of them in some manner outside of eating. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Day shift agents don't need to worry about cleaning up their desk in Headquarters to make room for the night shift agents that share their desks — Maintenance agents take all of the stuff, destroy it, and then replace them with fresh copies of said stuff for the next day. Given what night shift agents generally do, however, this might not be so impractical. The Clap-inator gadget has the shape of an egg and can produce clapping sounds...that is, if an agent is willing and able to follow all of the instructions needed to make it work. Precinct 13579 is also in possession of a Chaos-inator, which, of course, was taken out by Ohlm. The only way the gadget could be practical is if it were in the hands of a villain, and one has to wonder why it even exists at all. A lot of the gadgets under the Guide to Commonly-Used gadgets qualify — the Move-That-Pen-To-The-Left-inator, Name-a-Ferret-Daniel-inator, and the See-You-Later-Alligator-inator look neat, but their purposes are so useless that it's a wonder they're used so often. | |

In other franchise media, the number of agents in Precinct 13579 specifically doesn't exceed 100, but the book states that most of the 45,000 agents are invisible. | |

Dangerous Workplace: There is a section on safety hazards in Odd Squad Headquarters (read: just the bullpen) that show what dangers are lurking about for agents to avoid. One alarming one is the sandbox turning into a box full of quicksand for two minutes every day, while another alarming one is the pointing-out of two of the poles holding up the second floor being held up with arts-and-crafts glue. | |

You Are Too Late: Due to being too busy with Centigurps, Otto misses the chance to write his own sections for "A Guide to Your Uniform", but the Odd Squad Printing Press allows him to write in the margins.

Artistic License – History | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: The first video game is noted to have been Space War! in 1971. This is mostly accurate (the game was developed in 1962), but the timeline doesn't explain that it's the first video game to be played outside of an institute. The actual first video game is thought to have been Tennis for Two, created in 1958. Although since the book dabbles in Alternate History, it's possible that Space War! is the actual first video game. | |

Let's Duet | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_59d9cfbd | comment |
Let's Duet: In addition to conversation starters, partners can perform a "getting to know you" song together. The way this works is by having each agent write down everything about themselves, getting two banjos, taking banjo lessons, tuning them, and then singing the contents of the lists to each other (also, square dancing, if partners are so inclined). | |

You Can't Miss It: The process of making a bookmark for the book involves making your own paper with the help of a lumberjack and a paper processing plant. The trope is then lampshaded by the very next page, which provides a pre-made bookmark (dubbed the "Bookmark-inator") for the reader to cut out and use. | |

Fearsome Critters of American Folklore | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_67bf4f8a | comment |
Fearsome Critters of American Folklore: Although the jackalope is Odd Squad's mascot, there is a section in the book on how to catch a jackalope that paints them as outright villains, when in reality they're just harmless odd creatures. This is invoked, however, since the word "jackalope" is meant to be replaced with the word "villain", and the entire supposed rant serves as a tip on how to catch villains. | |

Otto's decorated desk looks vastly different than as seen in the show. It's meant to emphasize his The Pig-Pen trait, but his desk has never been that messy. It is, however, far more disorganized when compared to Olive's. Likewise, Otis's desk doesn't look as empty as it is in the show, and his "no ducks" decal isn't seen on his desk at all. | |

National Anthem: Parodied. The Odd Squad Anthem isn't so much a national anthem as it is a song for the organization — agents just use the word "anthem" in place of "song" due to Rule of Cool.

Elective Mute | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_9853e107 | comment |
Subverted in the case of floating sandwiches, which is considered an odd creature to some in Odd Squad due to a rumor that there are tiny creatures living in them that make them float. Others think they may either be a rare odd virus and thus it is an odd disease, while others believe it has a (rather mean or evil) personality and is an Elective Mute and thus it is an odd villain. No one knows exactly what a floating sandwich is, but considering it can actually float and one image implies that one floating sandwich and another non-floating sandwich (the latter of which has been given floating abilities by the former) are happily married, it falls under the trope. | |

Continuity Nod: Otto mentions that he was unable to finish and turn in his sections for the "A Guide to Your Uniform" because he was too busy trying to catch Centigurps, which may serve as a reference to "The Trouble with Centigurps". The Shrink-inator, which was prominently seen in "Reindeer Games", is listed on The Guide to Commonly-Used Gadgets has the Shrink-inator, the Pudding-inator, the Day-inator, and the Flip-Flop-inatornote which also mentions flipping the digits of 12 so it becomes 21, flipping the digits in your age, and the gadget itself not working on those who have double-digit ages — all things that happened in "Trading Places". One of the sections in the handbook is aptly titled "How to Interrogate a Unicorn". The Form O-135 that is filled out in the book covers the events of "Reindeer Games" and is filled out by Olive. The book mentions that over 45,000 agents can be employed in precincts' Headquarters at any given time, with most of them being invisible. This holds some legitimacy, given a statement Olive made in "Whatever Happened to Agent Oz?" where she estimated that about 100 invisible agents (Oz himself included) were working at Precinct 13579. | |

Alternate History | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_a86069f | comment |
Alternate History: The "Famous Moments in Odd Squad History" section features unique, odd twists on historical events, monuments, and landmarks. In 300 BC, the Great Wall of China shrunk down to become six inches tall, which upset the Chinese emperor so much that he renamed the monument to the Not-So-Great Wall of China and proceeded to cry in his palace for forty days. Afterwards, he called Odd Squad, who apprehended the culprit — a villain named Smallsy Wallsy, who agreed to hand his shrink ray over if Odd Squad wrote about him in a history book one day. In 1503, following the completion of The Mona Lisa, Leonardo da Vinci found out that Mona Lisa herself had escaped from the painting. Once Odd Squad was contacted, they found her at a local market, gathering things like puzzles and food to take with her into the painting, having been resigned to the realization that she will be stuck in a painting all of her life. According to legend, the reason why she is smiling in the painting is because an agent helped her with a crossword puzzle. In 1969, Neil Armstrong was set to become the first man on the moon...that is, if it weren't for the fact that the moon was actually a moon pie and not an actual moon. Two Odd Squad agents were sent to the moon via an Odd Squad-branded rocket and blasted the dessert with an Un-Moon-Pie-inator gadget, which turned it back into a regular moon. Neil Armstrong eventually did become the first man on the moon, while the two agents were the first people to skip and jump rope on it. The book even manages to predict the future course of history thanks to time travel. In the year 5086, Patty, a gerbil that serves as the ruler of the entire universe, will discover that she has become a victim of oddness in the form of her Palace of Peace being turned into a pile of tan-colored socks. Eventually, Odd Squad agents equipped with Teleportation and Mind Control abilities will come and rebuild the palace using their powers. | |

Dissimile: A case is defined as "an odd problem that needs to be solved". A mission, on the other hand, is defined as "like a case, but a super-serious one that you should be all super-serious about." So essentially, a mission is an upgraded version of a case, but aren't quite the same thing. | |

Floating sandwiches could potentially be considered an odd creature in Odd Squad due to a rumor among agents that there are tiny creatures living in them that make them float, which puts Oprah eating one in "First Day" into an entirely new light. | |

Droste Image: Lampshaded when a question about the Odd Squad seal asks why there are an endless number of jackalopes in it. The answer is that that "there are an endless number of jackalopes in the world. We're just trying to be correct." The Figure 1 of the Glossary of Common Odd Squad words falls under this trope as well. | |

Take That! | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: For both of the show's genuine, lighthearted features of Segways, this book delivers a harsh jab at them by having agents abandon Tube Travel in place of riding Segways around, then going back to using the tube system the next day. To say nothing of the jabs aimed at both villains and adults at various places in the story. While the villain jabs are justified, the adult jabs wouldn't be if it weren't for the fact that Adults Are Useless in this universe. And speaking of adults being useless, a question from a woman named Ms. Williamson as to why adults can't join Odd Squad is answered with "adults get scared by oddness while children take it in stride and are Fantastically Indifferent to it." | |

Negative Continuity | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_bd8aa92a | comment |
There are numerous snarls in the book's timeline which contradicts canon from other franchise media, which isn't surprising given this franchise's infamous track record with continuity. Generally speaking, however, the timeline seen in the book is taken at face value by many fans, and all of the events have become an accepted part of the unofficial series timeline. The timeline in the book also features time travel having been invented in 2015, causing multiple timelines to be created and the main timeline to become jumbled — which implies that, in spite of all the Call-Backs and Continuity Nods, continuity just doesn't exist. | |

Anthropomorphic Food | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_dcd2459e | comment |
Anthropomorphic Food: Orchid once battled gigantic evil blueberry whole-wheat pancakes using three different gadgets. The only reason why she used three different gadgets instead of just one was because she didn't know the pancakes had blueberries and were whole-wheat. Subverted in the case of floating sandwiches, which is considered an odd creature to some in Odd Squad due to a rumor that there are tiny creatures living in them that make them float. Others think they may either be a rare odd virus and thus it is an odd disease, while others believe it has a (rather mean or evil) personality and is an Elective Mute and thus it is an odd villain. No one knows exactly what a floating sandwich is, but considering it can actually float and one image implies that one floating sandwich and another non-floating sandwich (the latter of which has been given floating abilities by the former) are happily married, it falls under the trope. | |

Continuity Snarl | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: There are numerous snarls in the book's timeline which contradicts canon from other franchise media, which isn't surprising given this franchise's infamous track record with continuity. Generally speaking, however, the timeline seen in the book is taken at face value by many fans, and all of the events have become an accepted part of the unofficial series timeline. The timeline in the book also features time travel having been invented in 2015, causing multiple timelines to be created and the main timeline to become jumbled — which implies that, in spite of all the Call-Backs and Continuity Nods, continuity just doesn't exist. In the "Letter From Ms. O", Oprah states that perhaps the agent reading the book will be picked to work with her at Precinct 13579. Doubles as an instance of Idiot Ball, since not only should she know that Directors pick their own graduates, but she picked Olympia specifically when she became an agent. The jackalope was chosen as the Mascot of Odd Squad after being the first odd creature discovered by an agent. This contradicts a live interview with Oprah held on Facebook, where she states that the jackalope was picked after numerous agents were surveyed and it was determined that it was their favorite animal. The name "watch tablets" is canonized here. However, the correct term for the device is "smartwatch", and it's unknown why the show actively avoids the word and settles on "watch tablets" (which is quite ironic, given how high-tech it is). The Athletics and Conflict Resolution department is simply known as "Fitness" when it was explicitly stated that the purpose of the department was to deal in both athletics and settling conflicts. The episode "Welcome to Odd Squad" would make the same mistake, referring to the department as "Athletics" with no mention of the "conflict resolution" part. Otto's decorated desk looks vastly different than as seen in the show. It's meant to emphasize his The Pig-Pen trait, but his desk has never been that messy. It is, however, far more disorganized when compared to Olive's. Likewise, Otis's desk doesn't look as empty as it is in the show, and his "no ducks" decal isn't seen on his desk at all. An agent suit seed is needed to make a uniform, which contradicts a Training Video that states a uniform capsule must be used in order to create a new Investigation agent uniform. The way to make a uniform, however, is pretty much the same otherwise. The Day-inator is listed as gadget #632,000. 10,000 gadgets were already stated to have already existed in the entirety of Precinct 13579 (which the book bases its information on) in "Odds and Ends", with no mention of any other gadgets above that number. In the "Questions and Answers" segment, there is a question posed about contradicting facts regarding Oscar working at Odd Squad. The question is, if they saw a picture of Scientists in the Old West and a photo of Oscar as a kid wearing a lab coat, then why is it claimed that Oscar invented the Science department only a few years ago. The answer? Time Travel, which is more of a creator-driven answer note Tim McKeon has been noted to enjoy various media about time travel and not a general answer. It may also double as a Take That! towards older fans who have long been asking that exact question, as well as similar questions regarding what is canon and what is not, and why canon is often contradicted. | |

Every Device Is a Swiss-Army Knife | |
| Odd Squad Agent's Handbook / int_f8f1f42e | comment |
Every Device Is a Swiss-Army Knife: Oona explains that while gadgets are handy weapons for fighting oddness and are very powerful (among a myriad of other uses depending on the gadget), they aren't as powerful as hard work, thinking things through, or persevering if you can't solve a problem. In this World of Weirdness, all three "tools" are just as powerful as gadgets, and brains are just as much Swiss army knives as gadgets themselves are. | |

The Power of Friendship: Don't think that this book cuts back on one of the organization's modus operandis being friendship. | |
