->'''Mac:''' That's not gonna happen, dude! We're adults now.
The gang attend their high school reunion and quickly end up regressing back to their teenage selves. Mac and Charlie find that they're still objects of ridicule for their old bullies, while Dee is thrilled to finally be accepted by the popular crowd and Dennis discovers that he might not have been as popular as he thought. (Part 1 of 2)
----
!This episode provides examples of the following tropes:
* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: Dee turns on the gang pretty quickly when she's accepted by the cool kids, despite her insistence that she's actually plotting revenge on their behalf.
* AffectionatePickpocket: Cricket takes the opportunity to hug most of the attendees while dressed up in his priest garb, stealing their valuable in the process.
* BadassBoast: Dennis gives a ''lot'' of these, seemingly unaware that everyone is laughing at him behind his back.
-->'''Dennis:''' I'm gonna stay right here, and I'm gonna wait for my minions to swarm me. And swarm they will, Tim! Alone you'll be. Such sad little games we play.
* ButtMonkey: The Waitress gets this even worse than the gang, to the extent that even Frank and Maureen end up ditching her.
* CallBack: Dee calls Frank [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS06E12DeeGivesBirth "jerk turkey"]].
* ClassReunion: The central conceit of the episode.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Dee's interpretation of the song "Baby Got Back".
-->'''Dennis:''' Sir Mix-a-Lot was not talking about women whose backs have recovered from a horrific spinal disorder! He was talking about gorgeous black women and their big, beautiful black butts.
* ContinuityCavalcade: Almost every character previously mentioned to have gone to high school with the gang puts in an appearance, including Rickety Cricket, the Waitress, [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS06E01MacFightsGayMarriage Maureen Ponderosa]], [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS05E05TheWaitressIsGettingMarried Brad Fisher]], [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS03E03DennisAndDeesMomIsDead Stash]] and [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS01E03UnderageDrinking Tim Murphy]].
* ContinuityNod:
** Dee claims that Charlie was the class clown in high school while Mac was the main drug dealer, which is pretty much how Dennis described them in [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS01E03UnderageDrinking "Underage Drinking: A National Concern"]].
** From the same episode, Dennis is still angry at Tim Murphy for sleeping with his prom date and Frank steals a nametag belonging to Nicki Potnick, whose car the gang
** Brad Fisher is now covered in scars after [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS05E05TheWaitressIsGettingMarried Charlie gifted him a box of hornets]].
** Cricket tells the popular crowd how Dee [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS02E07TheGangExploitsAMiracle lied about being in love with him and ruined his life.]]
* CrazyPrepared: Charlie packs extra underwear at the beginning of the episode in case someone gives him an atomic wedgie.
* EmbarrassingNickname: In addition to Dee's [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS03E05TheAluminumMonsterVsFattyMagoo "Aluminum Monster"]] moniker, we learn that Mac and Charlie also had these in high school: Mac was "Ronnie the Rat" because he was a narc who ratted on the other drug dealers, and Charlie was "Dirtgrub" because of his poor personal hygiene and weird eating habits.
* EtTuBrute: Mac repeatedly tells Charlie to stop joining in with the others when they laugh at him.
* ExtremeOmnivore: Adriano Calvanese apparently got Charlie to eat ''spiders'' on at least one occasion.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: The gang immediately ditch Frank when the security guard refuses him entry, and Dennis spends the rest of the episode trying to get rid of him after he sneaks in anyway.
* HeCleansUpNicely: Cricket shows up in his priest uniform claiming to have got his life back
* HypocriticalHumor: Lampshaded:
-->'''Mac:''' I'm not gonna take some shit from some bartender!
-->'''Charlie:''' ''You're'' a bartender.
-->'''Mac:''' ''He'' doesn't know that!
* {{Jerkass}}: Adriano Calvanese still acts like a high school
* TheLadette: Dee chugs beer from a funnel before the gang go into the event.
* TheNondescript: Dee describes the Waitress as "the most forgettable girl in the school". And for once it's not just a case of the gang being selfish jerks; nobody else remembers her either, and the event organizers forgot to make her a name tag.
* OffTheWagon: The Waitress is a drunken mess throughout the entire episode.
* OldFriendNewGender: Played for laughs when Frank steals Nicki Potnick's nametag.
-->'''Adriano:''' Looks like you had a rough couple of years there, Nicki.
-->'''Frank:''' Uh, yeah. I'm a guy now.
* PetTheDog: Mac and Frank seem genuinely concerned when Charlie runs off to the bathroom to huff chemicals after being mocked by the cool kids.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Lampshaded by Dee, who states that Adriano and his cronies really love homophobic jokes for some reason.
* TheRat: Mac was this in high school, and he reverts back to his old ways by snitching on Adriano for printing out extra drink tickets.
-->'''Mac:''' Ha, you got in trouble. You got in trouble!
-->'''Adriano:''' Wow. Ronnie the Rat strikes again, huh?
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Adriano comments on how Dee's looks have improved now that she doesn't have to wear the back brace and invites her to join the cool kids as a result.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Dennis's claims of being the most popular kid in the school are heavily implied to be true only
* StatusQuoIsGod: Because nobody in the gang can be successful for long, Dee is kicked out of the cool clique at the end of the episode after Cricket tells everyone they
* UnfortunateName: Mac's full name is finally revealed: ''Ronald [=McDonald=]''. He initially tries to get out of wearing his nametag for this reason, but Dennis forces him to put it on.
-->'''Dennis:''' Well, okay, Ronald [=McDonald=]...
-->'''Mac:''' Don't call me that!
-->'''Dennis:''' Well, it's your name. So, ''Ronald''...
* TheUnreveal: The Waitress's real name ''isn't'' revealed, as the event organizers didn't make a nametag for her.
* {{Wedgie}}: The popular crowd plus Dee give them to Mac, Charlie and
* YouAreFat: Several characters comment on Mac's weight gain.
