History Recap / CommunityS1E22TheArtofDiscourse

* HotMom: Mark's mom. Jeff bangs her. Twice.

* {{NOT!}}: Britta. [[EvenTheDogIsAshamed Even The Goat Is Ashamed]].

* AnimalReactionShot: When a joke by Britta falls flat", the goat[[hottip:* :a rival school {{Mascot}} that Troy and Abed stole for Abed's list]] gets a reaction shot.

* TeensAreMonsters: The highschool students attending campus for a program to earn college credits wont stop MERCILESSLY hounding the cast for going to a community college, when they'll be one day going to universities. Strangely UpToEleven - many fans felt they were too cruel to be funny.

* UnusualEuphemism: What the hell is "schmitty" supposed to mean!?

* WeWantOurJerkBack: After [[spoiler: Pierce gets kicked out of the group for pantsing Shirley, they quickly realizes that they need him back, because his vital role as the biggest {{Jerkass}} there allows the rest of them to get along better with each other.]]

** Also, they pronounce it wrong.

* ExtremeOmnivoreGoat: One of the HilariousOuttakes shows the goat trying to eat Troy's notes.

* DeaderThanDisco: The first scene features a guy roller-skating through the hallway in an orange tracksuit and an afro. Jeff references this trope.

-->'''Abed:''' "Boobatron's great. And once someone spills bongwater on his circuitry and he comes to life, he's gonna make us the coolest guys on campus and help us get babes."

--> '''Troy:''' "I'll be your MorganFreeman."

--> '''Abed:''' "We've lost our [[{{Cheers}} Cliff Clavin]], our [[{{Seinfeld}} George Costanza]], our [[{{Entourage}} Turtle... or Johnny Drama... or E]]. Man, that show is sloppy."

--> Jeff Winger: Banged Mark's mom. Twice.

While hanging out in the cafeteria Jeff and Britta become targets of ridicule for a trio of elitist high school students attending the Greendale for early college credit. They try to get revenge but find the results are less than satisfying. Meanwhile the study group is torn apart when Pierce goes too far and humiliates Shirley and fails to apologize, resulting in an ultimatum. On the lighter side, Abed has a Quintessential College Experience List and Troy is helping him complete it.

* TeensAreMonsters: The highschool students attending campus for a program to earn college credits wont stop MERCILESSLY hounding the cast for going to a community college, when they'll be one day going to universities.

* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: In keeping with the ''AnimalHouse'' influence of Abed's subplot.
