Goes through a lot of boys just to find the one... Luke: Adorkable nerd who has a love for computers. Somehow ends up in two love triangles in eight months... Greg: Charismatic and talented cook.

The Ghost
 The Kids of Pine Hill / int_1ba17583
comment
The Ghost: Mr Dawson, the music teacher, is mentioned in the first episode and onwards throughout the book but is never seen. The Janitor is mentioned multiple times, even having a rivalry with Vance but doesn't make an appearance. The Purple Prankster, however, this is clearly to add suspense to who it really is, especially when it is implied that it could've been any of the main characters.

The Main Characters Do Everything: Lampshaded twice by Vance when the group are forced to introduce the new transfer student around the school and invesitgate the Purple Prankster, however, both reason given justify them: The Purple Prankster is believed to be a freshman and the transfer student will fit in better with the freshmen.

Heterosexual Life-Partners: Luke and Greg are the closest friendship in the group and they have no shame about it, most of their subplots being fun things between one another. They're the characters who mainly lead The Tag at the end of each episodes.

The Friends Who Never Hang
 The Kids of Pine Hill / int_1ed73929
comment
The Friends Who Never Hang: Leesa and Luke talk to one another in group scenes but don't have any plotlines together. Greg and Mr Dunn don't have any plotlines together but have a nice moment at the end of "Therapeutic Building". Greg and Raven share one plotline together and a few lines of dialogue in other episodes but don't hang out much more than that. This is lampshaded in "Contrasts in Ageing" when (tired) Raven tells him they should hang out.

Second Episode Introduction: The break room isn't introduced until "Bonding" where the group (bar Vance) escape the isolation room and discover it as an old classroom that isn't being used. It is quickly turned into their own room and becomes the setting for the next Cold Open(s) in the book.

Chekhov's Gun: Mr Dunn's (love for his) mug in "Welcome". Subverted with the key to the break room in "The Equus Caballus Complex". It is brought up by Luke at the beginning, leading the audience to believe that it will save the group from Mr Dunn finding them but Melanie doesn't lock the door, making it easy for them to be caught.

Extremely Short Timespan: Most of the episodes take place during a whole day with the climax occurring at lunch time or some time after, however, this does not apply to all episodes: "Bonding" takes place during the last two classes of the day, making the events of the episode last roughly ninety minutes. "The Equus Caballus Complex" takes place all before school starts, including home room, making the events of the episode last about an hour. "Therapeutic Building" takes place all in one room which sparks a debate between the group, making the events of the episode last about an hour or two.

Out of Focus
 The Kids of Pine Hill / int_32da91b8
comment
Out of Focus: Some characters end up going out of focus due to them not being relevant to the plot or having anything else to do: This is first done (and lampshaded) with Vance and Leesa in "Creative Control" in which they say that they've done nothing all day while the other four have had their own problems. This happens to Leesa and Melanie in "Intricate Pedibus Exercise" where they don't get their own subplot. This happens to Vance and Mr Dunn in "Odd Interests in Musicology" where they don't get their own subplot.

Character Development: They all end up going through some before the end of the book: Vance learns to care for others and lift their spirits in what they do. Leesa stops looking for love and finds her passion in Drama. Luke learns to stand up for himself and be more open with his opinions to others. Greg learns to make his own decisions and follow his dreams without anyone else's input. Melanie learns to accept that some things are just the way they are and cannot be perfected. Raven learns that she can't save everyone, no matter how much she wants herself to. Mr Dunn learns how to be kinder to others and help them with their problems.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 The Kids of Pine Hill / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In "Bonding", the group end up causing a food fight in the cafeteria after a confrontation with a bully, while it was fun while it lasted, it didn't stop them from getting intro trouble. In "The Equus Caballus Complex", Greg brings a horse to school for Bring Your Pet to School Day, of course Mr Dunn's initial reaction is to call animal control because there is no excuse for a farm animal to be on school grounds. In "Extreme Dieting", Raven starves herself in order to become fitter for the badminton tryouts to the point where she passes out after not eating enough. This episode highlights the issues that women have when it comes to society's standards of body image. In "Psychological Education", Raven constantly leaves badminton practice so that she can help the group with their problems but when her PE teacher finds out, he almost kicks her off the team.

Melanie doesn't give one to Professor Corrigan but rather tells him to his face that he sucks and proceeds to lead the class into throwing paper balls at him, as in "Experimental Parenting". Greg gives one to Leesa when she's mad at him for liking the same boy as her, when in truth it was only attraction, as seen in "The Youthful Race of Romance". Mr Dunn gives one to the group about how they're all bad people in "Therapeutic Building".

comment
Dysfunction Junction: Even with all the love the group have for one another, they all have their own personal traumas that all stem back to their parents: Vance and Leesa's father left them when they were children, leading the former to grow narcissistic and form a shield around his heart while the latter forced herself to find love in order to prove to herself that it was real. Luke's parents neglected him from a young age, leading him to be socially awkward and lost in a world of technology, believing it was his only way of communicating with others. Greg's parents don't support his dreams at all and want him to carry on the family business. Melanie's parents expect her to be perfect all the time, leading her to spend all her time working, having no friends and expecting herself to be the best. Raven's parents divorced when she was at a young age and left her with her grandmother, leaving her emotionally closed-off from the world. Mr Dunn pushed away his own family in an attempt as a successful career but led him to be lonely as they shut him out completely.

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Each episode is titled weirdly with long words, some being alliterative or scientific or Latin. "The Equus Caballus Complex" - Equus Caballus is the scientific name for horses, foreshadowing what pet Greg is going to bring in while the group try to guess what it is. "Intricate Pedibus Exercise" - Pedibus is the Latin word for feet, referring to the two forms of exercise in the episode that require the movement of feet: basketball and dancing.

Technically eighth, but after Emilio is expelled, in the Cold Open of "Pricey Camaraderie" the group discuss if they should bring in another member; Vance, Luke and Raven say no while Leesa, Melanie and Greg say yes. This goes on to set up the main plot for "Unregistered Rules" where the group are introduced to Martin Bao, the potential Sixth Ranger. It is left ambiguous on whether or not he will join the group next year.

Running Gag
 The Kids of Pine Hill / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Vance calling someone "salchicha" despite not knowing what it means. Vance and Leesa being told they don't look like twins and them replying with "We get that a lot". Someone saying "Anyhoo" at the beginning of their sentence, sometimes to avoid a conversation topic. Melanie's gasping someone's name when they say something insensitive. Vance calling Melanie "Mel" and her replying with "Stop calling me that". Leesa and Melanie cooing at cute or sad things. Luke saying "Vanessa. Vanessa Andrews." when someone asks who she is. Someone thinking That was not supposed to happen when something hasn't gone as planned. Raven getting called "Rae" much to her dislike. Greg's love for moustaches. Vance's love for apple juice. Vance's love for the Bahamas. Vance having naturally amazing hair.

This becomes a Brick Joke later in "The Youthful Race of Romance" in which Vance remarks that he can't tell which Sarah has given him a Valentine's card.
