Detentionaire is a Canadian Mystery Fiction-Conspiracy Thriller cartoon from Nelvana that was created by TV writers Daniel Bryan Franklin and Charles Johnston. It began airing weekly on Teletoon in January 2012, although it had a preview week in the September of 2011.Lee Ping, an Ordinary High-School Student beginning 10th grade at A. Nigma High School, gets a year's worth of detention for pulling the mother of all school pranks, and on the very first day, no less.The catch? He didn't actually do any of it.To make matters worse, his mother, a teacher at his school, has grounded him for the same length of time, leaving him unable to do anything outside of school. Since no one will believe his claims of innocence and he doesn't have any proof of it, Lee must clear his name by sneaking out of detention every day and finding clues that will lead him to the true culprit.With the help of a circle of close allies, including his best friend Camillio Martinez, goofy exchange student Holger Holgaart, school bully Biffy Goldstein, and the school news reporter Tina Kwee (his crush), Lee searches for the truth behind the prank and tries to catch the real prankster by rubbing shoulders with the various student cliques of A. Nigma High. And while he's at it, Lee finds himself having to avoid all manner of obstacles, such as the tyrannical cyborg principal and former military officer General Barrage, the school's strange hazmat-wearing janitors, and a lizard-like monster called the Tazelwurm that serves as school mascot.Widely considered to be one of the best shows ever produced by Nelvana and to have ever aired on Teletoon, thanks to its complex plot and engaging writing, surpassing Franklin, Redwall, and Mythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend. In recent years however, it has faced some competition with Mysticons for the title of being Nelvana's best series.The show lasted 53 episodes over 4 seasons, and was licensed by Cartoon Network for an American release. The series was canceled on Thursday, January 29, 2015, allegedly due to poor performance in the United States. All 4 seasons are available to view online via Amazon, Tubi, and YouTube via Nelvana's Retro Rerun channel in America, the latter two being available for free.Not be confused with Detention.

Badly Battered Babysitter: To an extent, Cam babysitting his “evil little sister” Angelina. He has to yell at her to not microwave the goldfish and gets hit in the head with both a water balloon and soccer ball, and that's only what we get to see onscreen. In the end, though, it's not so bad, as they're just acting like siblings and not doing anyone real harm. Except the goldfish, that is.

Wrong Genre Savvy: Brad, whose father is a blockbuster movie star, seems to think his life is an action movie (of which he is the star, of course) and act accordingly. There are moments when he's right, but most of the time he just doesn't get that Lee is the protagonist and the series generally has less explosions than action flicks.

Egg Sitting: The episode “Misadventures in Babysitting", which had some rather unusual student pairs being assigned a robot baby to take care of, some of which included Chaz and Tina, Cam and Holger, and Brandy and Irwin, who actually ended up getting along surprisingly well. Poor Biffy got saddled with twins. Of course, at the end of the episode, we find out that their real purpose is planting bugs in the students' homes as a part of Cassandra's plot, so it seems Holger wasn't really wrong to call them “evil robot babies”.

Alpha Bitch
 Detentionaire / int_22a27b19
comment
Alpha Bitch: Brandy, Lee's new (and self-proclaimed) girlfriend comes off as either this, Clingy Jealous Girl, or Lovable Alpha Bitch at first. Episode 5 shows that she wants to be a part of the Alpha Bitch clique, and at the end of that episode, warms up enough that she stops calling Lee "Leaping" and refers to him properly as Lee Ping. Episode 18 showed more of a loyal side to her, including accompanying Lee on a stakeout, asking and telling some personal things about him and herself to try and improve their relationship, and showing Lee that she can be very crafty too. Chaz is a male example of this to Tina and all of the media group. Vain, self-absorbed and verbally abusive unless on camera, he definitely isn't the Jerk Jock. Kimmie herself is this as well, even towards Brandy and Biffy. But when Kimmie and Biffy are alone, they start rekindling their old friendships.

Senior Sleep-Cycle: The old teacher "supervising" detention will not wake up for anything. The world could end around him and he'd still be snoozing. We find out in Season 3 that it was actually cause by him trying to open the pyramid under the school. It can only be opened under specific conditions that he didn't know, and when someone tries to open it at the wrong time, it causes them to go into a sleep-like coma.

 Detentionaire / int_31da1e24
comment
Shipper on Deck: A not-so-benevolent example. The machine that brainwashes the students through their cellphones links two of those students together, creating lots of bizarre couples. As an example, Brad/Tina and Holger/Kimmie (the latter was foiled, because Cam had Holger's cellphone, and thus was getting the order instead, thus getting paired with Kimmie.) When the machine responsible for these often crack pairings is destroyed, most of those couples instantly break up. However, Brad/Tina was hinted at before the device was in place, so perhaps some of the pairings were not so unbelievable after all, along with a couple of other relationships... Many characters ship Lee and Tina.

Gentle Giant: Biffy. He's Lee's inside-man whenever they're in detention. He's big and muscled, and always gets himself in trouble so he could go to detention, but it actually gives him the free time to do things like knitting sweaters, being Lee's eyes in the sky, and playing with his adorable pet kitten. Granted, his threats to cease being Lee's 'eyes' and show him 'how much of a bully [he] really can be' if he couldn't get DoD back together in Episode 6 are an early indicator that he really can be a strong threat. In later seasons, he acts as the muscle of the group when he tags along with Lee.

When Lee accidentally and indirectly causes the DoD's frontman Cyrus to break off, it's up to him to get the band back together in time to perform.

Mind-Control Music: The Prank Song. It's part of a top secret project to brainwash people into acting against their character. Some people, like Lee, just happen to be immune to its effects. Magic Music: The latter episodes of Season 4 takes it up to eleven by making the song the first song in existence and was used by Finnwich to bring back a Only Mostly Dead Lynch.

Punny Name
 Detentionaire / int_6d7026fa
comment
Punny Name: The high school is called "A. Nigma High". Sounds like "enigma", as in puzzle. Get it? Also, Camillio refers to Lee, who is quite intelligent, as "Homes," which in context is the same as "home boy," but is pronounced almost the same as "Holmes." And of course, "Lee Ping" is a punny name as well.

Older Than He Looks: Lynch is hinted to be this early on. When Lee looks in his dropped wallet, his birth certificate says he was born in 1934 and was the president of the Green Apple Splat company. Lee just assumes it belongs to his father. However, it was confirmed in "Fence-o-palooza" to be Lynch himself, with his youthful looks being a result of magic and plastic surgery.

"Shut Up" Kiss
 Detentionaire / int_6eeba1f2
comment
"Shut Up" Kiss: Lee gives one to Brandy in Episode 3 to avoid getting caught by Barrage. She's then left with Post-Kiss Catatonia because it turned out to be her first kiss. It comes back to bite him in a later episode, when a picture of said kiss is displayed at Brandy's party. Lee then does it to her again in Episode 8 in order to keep her from revealing his identity to Barrage.

She Is Not My Girlfriend
 Detentionaire / int_78410584
comment
She Is Not My Girlfriend: Lee to Brandy. To be fair, the way they "get together" is pretty bizarre, not to mention completely involuntary on Lee's part. By Episode 9, he actively tells people that he has a girlfriend. By Episode 18, the fact that Brandy knows some personal things about him (his eye color, and the fact that in certain lighting it glows hazel, which is a surprise even to Lee, for example) AND has demonstrated some craftiness and genuine want of building their relationship, makes Lee more confused about all this. In the end, though, they revert to being just friends and get romantically involved with other people. Biffy and Kimmie have this reaction, once they resume their childhood friendship in mostly secret.

There's the red good Tazelwurm and the blue evil Tazelwurms. The Pyramid constantly changing color from red to blue.

Art Shift: The style shifts from Toon Boom animation to still images to depict the chaos of the gym at the first day. The last two seconds of the intro also briefly shift into sketchy traditional animation. In crowd scenes, there are often nameless background characters that do not move or speak who seem to be drawn in a different style. When we see a close up on hands, they tend to be drawn in more detail as well.

13 Is Unlucky: This number has popped up a few times. For example, Wing 13 of the Green Apple Splat factory is a creepy, dark, seemingly haunter corridor, and it's where the survivors of the old factory's meltdown were kept, since they all went insane because of the fumes. Of course, the protagonists have to go through it to escape the second meltdown. Also, students are periodically called down to Room 113 B, which actually leads to the underground Brainwashing rooms.

Later on, she is interrogated by Barrage and stands up to him. Even later, she's almost brawling with Barrage for control of the security cameras so both can find Chaz Monorainian. The fact that Barrage is a Drill Sergeant Nasty eyepatched badass makes this even more impressive.

Status Quo Is God: In the finale of Season 2, after proving himself innocent of the the prank, gaining an ally with Barrage and defeating RadCircles, Lee's back in detention, Barrage is brainwashed to forget the whole thing, and RadCircles is replaced with the Council. About the only thing he's gained is that Tina believes him now.

comment
Adults Are Useless: On one hand, Barrage toes a fine line between overtly stern and tyrannical and Lee's mom (embarrassingly enough, a math teacher at his school) doesn't believe that her own clean-cut son didn't pull the prank. On the other hand, Vice Principal Victoria is sympathetic to the students and is swift to deal with bullies like Biffy, and Lee's dad tries to make his son's grounding period at least bearable. It's too bad that Barrage sacrifices himself for Lee and Victoria turns out to be evil.

No OSHA Compliance: The green apple splat factory has a few unguarded, unprotected controls that when pushed can cause explosion that that not only kills any still inside the factory, but also contaminates the land around it for years. Is a soft drink really that hard to make? Okay, so it's partially for a evil mind control scheme, but that doesn't mean there can't be basic safety protocols. Then there's A. Nigma High keeping a dangerous animal as a school mascot...

The Ace

The Ace: Despite his supposed geeky rep before the series start, Lee gains instant popularity after getting detention. Also, he's a pretty good action hero for an Ordinary High-School Student, as he seems to be able to do anything; from being a star football player, to a top violinist, to a brilliant actor. This also counts as a subversion, in that while Lee is fairly intelligent and resourceful, he struggles through the more physical aspects of being an Action Hero (for example, the first time he swipes a skateboard to escape, he does have some trouble with his coordination). Not to mention his reputation as a legendary troublemaker was completely false.

Xanatos Gambit: Utilized by Brandy, to get Tina out of Lee's life. It involved setting her environmentalist friend up to be noticed by Tina, and so the both of them set out on a date. Her obvious plan was to set her up so that she would spill acid onto Tina's head to dissolve her hair. When Lee stepped in and pushed Tina out of the way, however, it was the date who got his hair dissolved, saying that he didn't want to believe Brandy that Tina was such a shallow person who played him for a fool. Needless to say, it was lose-lose for Lee and Tina's relationship.

Shout-Out: Lee disguises himself as a football player wearing a visor-equipped helmet in order to scout info at the football tryouts. The scouting info part aside, that does evoke elements from one football story... Misadventures in Babysitting Cyrus' hat is based on Slash's iconic hat. Barrage's floating drones around the school look pretty damn familiar. They're even called "Eyebots". The name of the art teacher is Mrs. Warhola, as a shout out to Andy Warhol. In "Fight or Flight", Jenny calls Mrs. Alice "Riddler on the Roof", making this a double shout out. Cam sure does seem to be crazy about an app called Disgruntled Pigeons. 28 Sneezes Later is a pretty huge one to the horror film 28 Days Later. Tales from Decrypt references quite a few movies from the 70's with similar names.

Mid-Season Twist
 Detentionaire / int_ddb233c1
comment
Mid-Season Twist: For the first five-or-so episodes, the story just looks like an abnormal Teen Drama series. The seventh episode demolishes that view on the series as Lee makes some important discoveries (the underground tunnels hiding the brainwashing laboratory). And even the episode's B plot is beyond weird, though it reveals more about Barrage's past.

Shame If Something Happened
 Detentionaire / int_e5c64f3f
comment
Shame If Something Happened: Cassandra wants Lee to draw her a map of the underground tunnels. When he refuses, she e-mails him a picture of his mother, in a chair, with the Serpent (the council’s enforcer) holding a sharp blade near her neck. It turns out that Lee’s mother never knew she was in danger, as the picture was taken at a salon, and the Serpent was masquerading as a hair stylist. The same thing happens again later, with the Council threatening to kill Lee’s father at the airport, with the Serpent acting as a sniper on a nearby roof. Nothing happens to either parent, but it is made clear that something could have, just to intimidate Lee.

All Animals Are Dogs
 Detentionaire / int_e70c45f0
comment
All Animals Are Dogs: Subverted. When Biffy loses track of Lee and can't reach him by phone in “The Theme Team”, he gets so worried something bad happened that he tries to get Mr. Rumplekittykat to find him by scent like a tracking dog. Instead, the cat just curls up in the shirt and goes to sleep. Occasionally played straight with the Taz. While he's usually pretty realistic for a snake/lizard/dragon/whatever he is, he does have a habit of licking people's faces in greeting like a dog would.

Clone Angst
 Detentionaire / int_e780f603
comment
Clone Angst: A couple of episodes imply that Lee is in fact a clone, specifically of the Serpent, which Lee struggles to deal with. He's not a clone of the Serpent, he's his brother. The majority of the school's teachers learned that they were clones upon waking up in their stasis chambers, most of whom are the most recent of the long series based on historical figures; the sole exception being Mrs. Ping who is just the first. To make matters worse, they came to this conclusion when the feeding apparatus kept them sustained malfunctioned and they would not last long without it.

No Indoor Voice: PRINCIPAL BARRAGE! ALWAYS TALKS! LIKE A DRILL SERGEANT! Holger also has problems with this, though it's only really seen in the earlier episodes when he'd accidentally yell something while on a spy mission. This usually ends with him running away from whoever he was meant to be spying on while berating himself for forgetting to whisper.
