* CallBack: At one point, Mike says [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S01E04WomenOfThePrehistoricPlanet "Hi-Cuba!"]] during a fight scene.

!!The ''Mystery Science Theater 3000'' presentation of ''Speech: Platform, Posture, and Appearance'' has examples of:

Film watched: ''Film/RedZoneCuba'', with short ''Speech: Platform, Posture, and Appearance''

Just as he did in Season 3's ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S03E13EarthVsTheSpider Earth vs. the Spider]]'', Professor E.C. Buehler returns to teach the audience an essential factor of public speaking in ''Speech: Platform, Posture, and Appearance''. This time, he goes into depth about the proper posture and physical positions needed when delivering a speech.

** Frank at the beginning when he mentions being in debt to the Mafia... and a hit-man is at the door.
** Dr. Forrester when he's attacked by a hit-man who was after Frank.

Film watched: ''Film/RedZoneCuba'', with short ''Speech: Platform Posture and Appearance''

One of the few films that actually ''broke'' the SOL crew, though the Mads don't notice due to Forrester having been beaten to a pulp by mobsters prior to the experiment -- and Forrester too busy beating Frank to even notice their "Bouncy Upbeat Song". SanitySlippage was the only thing saving them from the DespairEventHorizon. Even the Mads descend into madness at the end.

* It's time for the Satellite of Love Lotto! As in "lotto" numbered balls to read off of. One of the numbers read off is "509", and with over two dozen balls drawn indicating winning is [[{{Understatement}} improbable]].

* As Mike and the 'Bots prepare for a thrilling high-stakes game of Bingo, TV's Frank is visited by the mob for a matter of "fifty large" and has Dr. Forrester answer the door. One painful beating later, Dr. F is bodycasted and bedridden.

* Mike and the 'Bots continue their wealthy ribald while Frank consoles Clayton over his injuries... and then helps with his horrible posture.

* The movie is starting to take its toll on Mike, who thinks he's Creator/CarolChanning. Dr. F is sent cards and flowers from many famous people who eagerly wait for his expiration.

* Poor Mike slips further and can't even figure out which celebrity he's impersonating. Faced with his impending end, Forrester struggles to find the strength to live and eventually does... and then the mob comes back for a second round.

* Mike and the 'Bots recover from the trauma of the movie they watched with a "bouncy upbeat song" of questionable lyrics. Dr. F makes a full recovery, too, though Frank may find himself in a bodycast next as his boss "thanks" him.

!! The ''[=MST3K=]'' presentation contains:

** At the start of the ''Speech'' short, Crow huffily declares that "''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S03E20TheUnearthly Posture Pals]]'' was the definitive last word on posture".

* {{Determinator}}: Zigzagged. Dr. Forrester's will to live in the third segment fluctuates, but even after being beaten by mobsters a second time, he ultimately pulls through in the end.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: This was the second Coleman Francis film featured. In the first, ''Film/TheSkydivers'', he goes entirely unmentioned, but by starring here he makes himself a running joke (''"Obviously, you don't know who you've captured here -- I'm Coleman Francis."'', ''"The Yanquis will pay highly for you, Señor Francis."'') and when ''[[Film/TheBeastOfYuccaFlats Yucca Flats]]'' subsequently aired, Mike and the bots panic (what's funny is that Mike had used ''The Beast of Yucca Flats'' as a ''warm up'' for [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S05E13TheBrainThatWouldntDie his first experiment]] ''Film/TheBrainThatWouldntDie''.)

* HereWeGoAgain: Just when it seems like Dr. Forrester is going to finally die, he gets his second wind, forces himself out of his bed, and makes his way out of Deep 13, armed with the will to live... and runs right into the mobster again.

* TheMafia: Antagonizes the Mads in the host segments, resulting in the subplot of Dr. Forrester's hospitalization.

* MockMillionaire: How Mike and the bots are dressed in the first and second host segments, complete with stereotypical rich accents.

* MundaneMadeAwesome: The entire theme of "Bouncy Upbeat Song"

* NearVillainVictory: The Mads had ''finally'' succeeded in driving Mike and the Bots into a SanitySlippage with a bad movie... only for them to be [[TrappedByGamblingDebts too]] [[BandageMummy preoccupied]] to care, and the ''Satellite of Love'' crew recover by the next episode.
* NegativeContinuity: The episode ends with the entire SOL crew being driven insane by the movie, and with Forrester attempting to kill Frank after being beaten to a pulp no less than twice due to the latter throwing him under the proverbial bus. Everything's back to normal in [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S06E20DangerDeathRay the next episode]].

** The bots when they see Mike's SanitySlippage.

* SuckinessIsPainful: This movie's [[Horrible/{{Film}} so unwatchable and tortuously terrible]] that it caused Mike to think he's Carol Channing along with a few other celebrities that he couldn't tell he's impersonating, After the movie was over, The crew sank into a minor depression with Mike admitting that being Carol Channing didn't help at all, So they sang the Bouncy Upbeat song to recover from the trauma.

* SecurityBlanket: Attempted: While back in the theater after [[NapoleonDelusion his stint as Carol Channing]], Mike winds himself deciding to put his wig back on to see if it will help make the movie hurt less. He winds up taking it back off when it doesn’t work.
