Look Behind You | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_112f8ee1 | comment |
Look Behind You: Used in "War of the Worms". When Gabby and the Twins try to go back in time without being spotted, Gabby distracts the other kids by saying that Nikola Tesla is here with a time machine. When the kids turned around to look, ...he's actually there! The same gag is used again later on. | |

The Bully | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_1b60dcba | comment |
When we get to know of Bruce, we are shown a flashback of him actively picking on Ethan by taping notes on his back. To name a few; "Kick me", "Trip me", and last but not least, "Ask me about my dead goldfish". He thinks it's funny to rub salt into Ethan's emotional wounds about his dead goldfish, which goes to show how cruel, unempathetic, and sadistic he is. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: While everyone is trapped in the western age, Gabby points out that their only hope of getting back home is if the twins "learned a valuable lesson in the time it takes to watch a children’s show, not counting commercials if this goes to network.� Gabby uses this gimmick on the regular. | |

Alpha Bitch | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_22a27b19 | comment |
Karrine's first appearance has her confront the twins in their lemonade stand business. Uninterested in "buying" their lemonade, she held an emergency meeting last night at the kids club to make up a new law that would allow her, as president (a position she often brags about), to have all the lemonade she wants "for free, now and always, Amen." However, only one kid showed up, but Karrine threatened said kid to vote "yes" on the law, then calling the vote "unanimous" after the law was passed. Then when the twins had their backs turned, she takes away their lemonade stand with a wagon. So to sum it all up, Karren starts off as an everyday Jerkass who is willing to bend the rules if it means getting what she wants, even if it's just small things, and to control other members of her club through fear, and to be unnecessarily cruel to people at times. And on a side note, she gets angry whenever people mispronounce her name. | |

Turn the Other Cheek | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_25a19aa5 | comment |
Turn the Other Cheek: In "The War of the Worms", Gahndi explains to the Tuttles that he and his people have suffered under the oppression of the British for many years. But despite all the horror that he went through, he nevertheless chooses to respond, not through vengeance, but through peaceful protesting. When Emily asks him how he responds to cruelty with pacifism, he says it's because he follows the principles of Hinduism, the teachings of Jesus Christ, and of course, The Golden Rule. He also says he is still able to find peace in doing good toward others, even when they're not doing good toward him in return. As for the story's conflict, this trope was necessary to break the Cycle of Revenge. On a Tuttle Talks video concerning the same episode, Karrine asks creator Daniel Harmon about this trope and points out its unpleasant moral implications; that we should just allow our enemies to continue to hurt us as we choose not to fight back. Daniel responds that there are indeed times where self-defense is a better option, like how we should preserve our rights to life, liberty, and property. | |

Non-Indicative Name: In the second half of the "When Laws Give You Lemons", we have a town located in the wild west named "Quiet Valley". Cue woman screaming from a distance. Justified, because the town was once peaceful before it had to put up with two bandits whose goals are to steal people's cows. | |

Daddy's Little Villain | |

Turns out Karrine's parents made very sure she took after them in this regard. In their first appearance together, they're seen scolding Karrine for even having a competitor for Kids Club president, instead of being in total control of the neighborhood kids. They then tell her that if she doesn't wrest control back from the Tuttle twins, she'll lose her place as daughter of the year—to the family dog. | |

Straw Hypocrite: One example from "When Laws Give You Lemons". Besides the fact that those "tax collectors" are really just the bandits in disguise, they claim that collecting cows from Carla will help create new jobs and help the poor and the needy, but they barely hide the fact that they're just plain greedy. Either way, nobody else was happy about the government taking other people's property and giving it to someone else. | |

Flat World | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_54956f54 | comment |
Flat World: In "War of the Worms", Copernicus' science project is a model of the solar system, but with Flat Earth being in the center of it. Later at the end, Emily helps Copernicus rebuild his model by replacing the flat earth with a lemon, which represents the sun. However, being The Ditz that he is, Copernicus now thinks that the center of the solar system is a giant lemon. He then eats it. The Tuttles visit an actual Flat Earth, also known as "Flearth", in "Cake, Pies, and Flat Earth Guys". Funnily enough, everything on Flearth is also flat; from cardboard-cutout trees and buildings to Paper People. | |

From Bad to Worse | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_7870735b | comment |
From Bad to Worse: As "War of the Worms" explores the theme of the Cycle of Revenge, this trope is in full swing. From what started off as a big Kick the Dog moment from Karrine Note She vandalizes the Tuttle's team flag, with the flagpole almost crushing the two, resulting in Ethan and Carl getting soaked in mud and almost inadvertently destroying Emily's science project, all at ONCE., to Emily getting even with her through an overnight prank, things get ''waaaaay'' out of hand! Pretty soon, the entire science camp is turned into a prank warzone, and everyone's science projects get ruined. By the end, if you thought it couldn't get any worse, it got to the point where some students attempt to drown Copernicus in a lake! | |

| Tuttle Twins / int_80251be3 | comment |
How We Got Here: The first episode begins with all the main characters traveling through time and space while struggling to hold on. Grandma Gabby worries that they aren’t going to make it, then the episode rewinds to 12 hours... whoops! 11 hours prior. When we return to that scene, it turns out Gabby was only bluffing and just wanted to provide the opening scene with some fake suspense, then she winks at the camera. | |

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Big Bob, owner of the Big Bob's Barbecue franchise, purchased protectionist legislation by bribing the soon-to-be mayor, thus preventing food trucks and other small business restaurants from operating anywhere within two miles of one of his restaurants, thereby forcing them all out of town where they can't get any business, or where working conditions are hazardous. He also wears white after Labor Day. | |

| Tuttle Twins / int_86daf505 | comment |
Parental Bonus: This show's got plenty of 'em. During a flashback, Grandma Gabby vandalizes a statue of Josef Stalin by teepeeing it, angering many Soviets in the process. When everyone enters the saloon to celebrate the elimination of unjust laws, Grandma Gabby asks for some “root beer� while making quotation marks with her fingers. Later, when Ethan tries some of that “root beer� himself, he correctly points out that it's not root beer... it’s just ginger ale. | |

Reference Overdosed | |
| Tuttle Twins / int_8e1aef2d | comment |
Season 2's premier, "Needs, Rights and Flamingo Fights," is chock full of pop culture references, and the season looks to have plenty more. The episode opens with two factions of butterflies snapping their fingers before initiating a fight. Lyle's description of his trek to find food comes straight out of Indiana Jones. John Locke allows Derek to play a literal game of Operation on one of his patients. At one point, Grandma Gabby spits out her dentures and clacks them together to imitate horse hooves on pavement. Grandma Gabby and Derek go on a shopping spree at Hot Gothic. While there, Gabby directly name drops Tim Burton. While stranded on Flamingo Island, the twins and Keith manage to catch Nemo, Dory, Marlin and Wilson. Keith calls one of the killer flamingos a "clever girl." Emily tells Copernicus that they never thanked the woodland animals for their help. He responds with, "And you'll never have to," before being carried off by a "cape" of butterflies. | |

| Tuttle Twins / int_a18fda9c | comment |
Dumb Muscle: Bruce, the bully, qualifies for this trope. Yes, he's got muscle, but when Ethan kindly offers him a canvas for his project, he rejects his help solely because he believes his role in the show is to be a metaphor of certain nations who reject the value of free trade, and are deprived of its own benefits. He ends up getting an F as a result, much to his displeasure. | |

Time for Plan B: The bandits were first seen attempting to steal a cow. When that doesn’t work, they disguise themselves as law-abiding tax collectors to legally confiscate Carla’s cows. But then when the law gets turned against them, they decide to revert to their original plan: take the cows away by force, except this time, using violence. | |

Worth It: During the first episode, the main characters suddenly run out of knowledge juice and end up trapped in the western age. This was most likely due to all the bathroom stops Gabby made because she drank too many slushes. Nevertheless, Gabby says it was worth it. | |

Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: The two bandits have spent the majority of the second half of "When Laws Give You Lemons" stealing cows (both legally and illegally). Then when they're finally defeated, they both lament that they really need cows and are so jealous that Carla has so many of them. Emily sets them both straight by saying that it's no excuse to violate Carla's right to property. | |

Shoe Slap: Averted.

Played straight in S2E1. Gabby uses a sandal to slap FDR's hand with a firm, "No!" when he attempts to grab her wheelchair. | |

The episode opens with two factions of butterflies snapping their fingers before initiating a fight. Lyle's description of his trek to find food comes straight out of Indiana Jones. John Locke allows Derek to play a literal game of Operation on one of his patients. At one point, Grandma Gabby spits out her dentures and clacks them together to imitate horse hooves on pavement. Grandma Gabby and Derek go on a shopping spree at Hot Gothic. While there, Gabby directly name drops Tim Burton.

Emily tells Copernicus that they never thanked the woodland animals for their help. He responds with, "And you'll never have to," before being carried off by a "cape" of butterflies. The second episode of season 2 has an obvious parody of the Teenage Mutant Ninj- In the same scene as the above, a rat is seen in the sewer about to indulge in a delicious meal. Sadly, his attempts to eat are thwarted repeatedly, much like a certain saber toothed squirrel. | |

Toilet Humor: In the first episode, we learn that Gabby went back in time to the French Revolution and borrowed a bidet from her dear friend, Frédéric Bastiat. What really makes this example work is that she confuses the bidet for a salad bowl, which she uses it for. The lemonade that the twins kindly give to Karrine at the end of the first episode. In one episode, Grandma Gabby brings Queen Elizabeth I from the 16th century to show her self-flushing toilets. She's absolutely giddy over the "chamber pots" that empty themselves. | |
