History Recap / BobsBurgersS4E14UncleTeddy

* TheAlcoholic: "I paid for five shots, we're doing five shots."

* CompanionCube: Teddy pulls a large wad of something out of the Belchers' kitchen sink drain. He, Gene, and Louise treat it like a baby.

* DisproportionateRetribution: The forum chefs might've had a good reason to be angry at Bob for his unintentionally insulting comments, but harassing him when he's minding his own business and trying to force him to leave the hotel jacuzzi so they can use it is going too far. Especially when they bully Linda as well.

* MundaneMadeAwesome: Teddy ultimately wins Gene and Louise over with the various tools he uses to unclog sinks.

* StoutStrength: The out-of-shape Teddy has enough strength to lift Jonas's moped and toss it into the ocean.

* EpicFail: Bob claims to have no idea how to put "JK" or "[=LOL=]" in his forum comments, which the other chefs don't believe. Later on, Bob shouts "[=LOL=]! Laugh On Loudly!" after he dumps condiments into the hotel jacuzzi, indicating he really doesn't understand what "[=LOL=]" stands for.

** Bob tries to defend his comments by saying he doesn't know how to put "JK" or "[=LOL=]" in his comments. The chefs refuse to believe someone could be that inept and think he's lying.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Ranger Dainko is willing to let Tina go, he just needs Teddy to sign the mandatory paperwork. Even when Teddy pisses him off by [[TheDitz continually misunderstanding where to sign the paperwork]], Dainko just leaves and doesn't punish Tina for it.
** Teddy himself is the most reasonable of the Belcher babysitters, only getting into trouble because Tina runs off. Jen is so easily cowed (usually) that the kids can force her into almost anything, whereas Gayle is nuttier than a fruitcake and easily led into similarly wacky circumstances. Tina gets a pass for being young but even she can be pushed into hijinks if boys are involved. On the other hand, this isn't saying much; Teddy feeds Gene and Louise candy and soda and almost let's Louise use his blowtorch. He's similarly mostly responsible when he babysits in "Zero Larp Thirty;" there, the main problem is his back going out. Otherwise his weekend plans sounded perfectly acceptable.

* NoSocialSkills: Bob believes he's very popular with a group of burger chefs he considers friends online, only to be shocked when he learns they all hate him. This turns out to be due to Bob's complete lack of understanding internet etiquette which in turn meant all his attempts to be friendly and give helpful advice backfired because he unintentionally made it sound like he was bullying and insulting the other chefs.
* NotHelpingYourCase: The burger chefs all treat Bob like garbage because they thought he was bullying them. Even if Bob truly was being accidentally rude to them, none of ''them'' ever thought to simply tell him to stop or tried to have him banned from the forum for misconduct. They're all legitimately surprised he had the nerve to show up when they could've told him he wasn't welcome long before that weekend happened. That they go out of their way to harass him and Linda when they're minding their own business shows they're far worse.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: It's hard to feel bad for the other chefs when Bob and Linda ruin the hot tub by dumping condiments into it. Ditto for when Teddy throws Jonas's moped into the ocean.

* DreadfulMusician: Jonas carries a melodica around, and plays it (poorly) at every chance. Even smitten Tina gets tired of it after a while.

* BlandNameProduct: Indefinite Stay, the hotel where the convention takes place, is a parody of residence hotels such as Extended Stay America.

* BlandNameProduct: Indefinite Stay, the hotel where the convention takes place, is a parody of the Extended Stay America hotel chain.

** Jonas doesn't seem well liked by either of his friends. Especially in regards to his incessant melodica playing.

** Even after Bob admits that he didn't realise how his internet behaviour was coming across and points out his restaurant is nothing special, the other burger chefs continue antagonising him just to be spiteful.

* {{Jerkass}}: Jonas uses Tina's obvious crush on him to get free food for himself and his friends, and they abandon her once they get in trouble.
