'''"A Multitudes of Casualties"''' is the fifth episode of Season 3 of ''Series/OneTreeHill'' and originally aired November 2nd, 2005. The episode was written by Creator/RLeeFlemingJr and directed by Creator/ThomasJWright.
The Ravens officially begin basketball practice. Nathan is named team captain, and Lucas struggles to hide his HCM. Brooke finds herself having to resort to desperate measures when cheerleading try-outs are a bust. Meanwhile, Dan's bid for mayor sees his old Ravens jersey number being retired - and prompts an unexpected opponent to stand against him.
! Contains examples of the following tropes:
* BathroomBrawl: Lucas and Nathan’s fight began in the locker room, before winding up in the gymnasium and provoking another brawl amongst the cheerleaders.
* CallBack: Rachel hides maked in Lucas’ backseat, in the same manner that Brooke did after [[Recap/OneTreeHillS1E03AreYouTrue his first successful game for the Ravens]]. The situation is lampshaded by Brooke.
* ClothesMakeTheLegend: Dan arranges for his Ravens jersey to be retired to help increase voter goodwill towards his campaign.
* EscalatingBrawl: Nathan and Lucas start fighting in the locker room, which winds up spilling into the gymnasium and sparking another fight between Rachel and Brooke, and pretty soon everyone on the basketball team and cheer squad is involved in two separate brawls. [[NoodleIncident And also Peyton is fighting the mascot for some reason]].
* FisticuffProvokingComment: Lucas and Nathan keep taking shots at each other, until Lucas provokes Nathan into violence by comparing him to Dan.
* NeverMyFault: Brooke blames Lucas for the situation with Rachel, despite Brooke forcing him to date other people and choosing Rachel herself, despite Lucas protesting that he was only interested in Brooke the entire time since she returned to Tree Hill.
* NoodleIncident: At some point in the brawl, Peyton began fighting with the Ravens mascot for some reason.
* PopCulturalOsmosis: Peyton not only has to explain Rachel’s Music/TheBeatles reference, but Brooke names the wrong band afterwards.
* ShoutOut:
** After her cheerleader audition, Rachel quotes Music/JohnLennon from the "[[Music/TheBeatles Let It Be]]" album.
---> '''Rachel''': I’d like to thank you on behalf of myself and the group… and I hope we pass the audition.
** Brooke names Music/TheBeeGees as the band John Lennon was in.
* TakeAThirdOption: After the brawl, Whitey doesn’t strip Nathan of the captaincy or kick Lucas off the team, but instead names Lucas as Nathan’s co-captain - either the brothers learn to work together, or they can take the blame when the team falls apart.
* TemptingFate:
** Brooke decides that Lucas has to date someone else per their non-exclusivity agreement, and picks a girl at "random" - not realising that Rachel just walked in front of the girl she intended to pick.
** Just as Dan has finished bragging about running unopposed, Whitey announces that Karen will be running against him.
* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: The vast majority of the people trying out to be cheerleaders simply lack any of the qualities desired. Naturally, the only desirable candidate is… Rachel, the girl who spent the Masquerade Ball dancing with Lucas.
* TitledAfterTheSong: The episode title is taken from the song "A Multitude Of Casualties" by The Hold Steady.
