History Recap / BobsBurgersS9E21PTAItAintSo

** The credits scene shows a top hat-wearing bird on roller skates propelling itself with farts.

* BrickJoke: During her proposal for the fundraiser theme, Linda suggests that they dress up someone as a shark. At the end, Colleen shows up dressed up as a shark to expose Joanne's embezzling.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Joanne seems like a nice, friendly type, but she's been skimming money from the PTA's coffers, stealing stuff meant for the charity auction, ''and'' is buying science kits from ''her husband's company''.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Teddy cares less about Bob accidentally offending Mr. Kim because of Mr. Kim's feelings, and more because Teddy's association with Bob is starting to hurt his own relationship with Mr. Kim.

* VillainHasAPoint: Joanne is absolutely wrong to take free stuff and skim off the top of the PTA coffers, though in her MotiveRant she gives compelling examples of how being PTA president is a thankless and time-consuming job with no pay and lots of hard work. In particular, when she asks who would like to clean up all the sand from Linda's beach theme idea, every hand that voted her out shoots back down.

* YouExclamation: Mr. Kim confronts Bob and Teddy with an angry "''You!''" when they barge into the hardware store and scare his parrot.

** The first Burger of the Day is [[Literature/OneFlewOverTheCuckoosNest One Flew Okra the Cuckoo's Nest]].

* DayDreamSurprise: Linda meets Joanne at the restaurant, where Joanne demands Linda sign a contract in blood, then pulls off her face to reveal that of a BigRedDevil, then pulls ''that'' face off to reveal Linda's own face while flames surround the two. Then Linda [[CatapultNightmare wakes up in bed with a start]].
