Daydream Surprise: The episode "Curse of the Mummy" has a scene in the middle of the episode where Timothy falls down the stairs as he's trying to escape with Muriel. From there, the episode gets more bizarre, ending with a sequence where the train is pulling away with Muriel on it and without Timothy. It is only then that we find that everything since Timothy fell down the stairs had been All Just a Dream.

Basement-Dweller: Timothy is an (initially) 41-year-old who lives with his parents. In a version of this trope, he does want to move out, he is just too cowed by his mother to do so successfully.

Catchphrase: "Language, Timothy!", usually said by Sydney in response to something which has been misunderstood to be offensive.
