History Recap / BobsBurgersS2E1TheBelchies

* JerkassHasAPoint: While she goes a bit too far with it, and eventually ditches her siblings to find the treasure for herself, Louise does have every right to be pissed off with them for how they've been more detrimental to the hunt than good (Tina invited Jimmy Jr., who in turn invited his brothers and Zeke, when Louise just wanted only the Belcher kids to find the treasure, while Gene messing around with the equipment ended up getting everybody stuck in an elevator). She's also completely correct when she notes how Zeke and the Pestos are even more useless, considering how they all got caught in a net trap Bob had to free them from.

* SleepingDummy: The kids use these when they sneak out of the house. Louise uses an inflated balloon and bundled-up clothes, Gene uses a stuffed garbage bag, and Tina simply leaves a post-it note with her name on it.
* SneakingOutAtNight: The Belcher siblings, Zeke, Jimmy Jr., Andy, and Ollie sneak out of their houses while their parents are asleep so that they can find the gold in the abandoned taffy factory that is scheduled to be demolished the next day. Bob and Linda later discover that the kids have left when [[ItsQuietTooQuiet they've been too quiet]] and go in after them.

* SneakingOutAtNight: Zeke, Jimmy Jr., Andy, and Ollie sneak out of their houses while their parents are asleep so that they can find the gold in the abandoned taffy factory that is scheduled to be demolished the next day. Bob and Linda later discover that the kids have left when [[ItsQuietTooQuiet they've been too quiet]] and go in after them.

* ActorAllusion: At one point, Louise sarcastically mentions a "grappling hook" when Bob asks if anything in the pit she's trapped in can help her escape. [[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls Mabel Pines]], another Creator/KristenSchaal-voiced character, is famous for using one.

** Zeke's mother had Zeke as a teen, meaning she'd be in her early 30's rather than the mid-40's that her appearance suggests. That said, it's entirely possible that she's YoungerThanTheyLook.

* SleepingDummy: The kids use these when they sneak out of the house. Louise uses an inflated ballon and bundled-up clothes, Gene uses a stuffed garbage bag, and Tina simply leaves a post-it note with her name on it.

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: Tina spends the episode trying to woo Jimmy, only to lose interest when he shows signs of liking her. Ultimately, she goes back to liking him after seeing his ass.

* RealAfterAll: Paddy's story about Mr. Caffrey's treasure initially seems made up, but turns out to be very real.

* CallBack: Teddy's first appearance in [[Recap/BobsBurgersS1E2CrawlSpace "Crawl Space"]] has him talking about the false walls in Bob's Burgers being a holdover from the town being a big bootlegging town during Prohibition, even mentioning his uncle's speakeasy. Teddy talks more about the town's Prohibition-based history in this episode, and it kicks off the main plot when he reveals an unassuming factory owner was in fact the biggest bootlegger in town.

** Similarly, Zeke's father has another son who's thirty years older than Zeke; at the bare minimum Zeke's father is currently pushing ''sixty'' and is more realistically around ''Mr. Fischoeder's'' age (mid-sixties). Assuming his appearance here hasn't been retconned, he's aged quite well.

* SureLetsGoWithThat: Andy and Ollie remark that Jimmy Pesto came for them. Jimmy, [[ParentalNeglect who didn't even know they were gone]], just rolls with it and celebrates being a "good" father.

* WholePlotReference: To ''Film/TheGoonies'', from the PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle to it being a TreasureHuntEpisode, and Louise befriending what she believes is a humanoid monster when she gets separated from the other kids. Music/CyndiLauper even [[ParodyAssistance performs a parody of her theme song]], "The Goonies 'r' Good Enough," during the credits.

* BrickJoke: At the beginning of the episode, Teddy invites Bob to watch a game with a "Bring-Your-Own-Bean" Three-Bean salad party. Later, a construction worker mentions having a friend that hosted a "Bring-Your-Own-Bean" Three-Bean salad party.

* CellphonesAreUseless: When the group finds Louise stuck at the bottom of a pit a booby trap knocked her into, Linda decides to call the fire department but she can't call them because there's no service. Linda blames their awful phone plan, then Bob points [[DidntThinkThisThrough they are underground so no cell tower waves can get through]].

** Jimmy Jr. and Zeke's wrestling holds come in handy when Louise is trapped in a pit, as Tina gets the idea to form a HumanLadder to reach her.

* JerkassHasAPoint: While she goes a bit too far with it, and eventually ditches her siblings to find the treasure for herself, Louise does have every right to be pissed off with them for how they've been more detrimental to the hunt than good (Tina invited Jimmy Jr., who in turn invited his brothers and Zeke, when Louise just wanted only the Belcher kids to find the treasure, while Gene messing around with the equipment ended up getting everybody stuck in an elevator). She's also completely correct when she notes how Zeke and the Pestos are even more useless.

Louise leads her siblings, the Pesto kids, and Zeke in a quest to find the secret treasure of an abandoned taffy factory, but Louise's frustration at the kids' incompetence leads her to search for the treasure on her own.

Meanwhile, Linda and Bob try to have a romantic night, but when they discover the kids' absence they embark on their own quest to find them--during which Bob starts feeling the side effects of a special pill Linda snuck into his food.

* DopeSlap: Louise wacks a hypocritical Tina in the back of the head for getting the Pestos and Zeke in on their treasure hunt.

* AdultFear:
** When Linda goes to check on the kids, she finds all of them gone, and then she reads Tina's diary and finds out they snuck to the taffy factory to find the treasure. When she and Bob show up, she even says she hopes they manage to find their kids before they get hurt.
** When the demolition team starts destroying the factory, all of the kids, Bob, and Linda ''are still underneath in the sewers'', and those in charge of the demolition are none the wiser about it. Everybody was lucky to escape unscathed.

* {{Diary}}: Tina wrote the kid's plan to find the taffy factory treasure in her diary, which is how Linda found out where they went.

'''Bob:''' Yes.\\

* InnocentBigot: Gene tells China to "stick to noodles", unaware of the connotations.
