* StealingTheCredit: The episode with Mario and Meggy arguing over who helped Luigi and Tari overcome their cowardice, and a scuffle breaks out between the two after the latter accuses the former of undermining her coaching.

* AbortedArc: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] when Meggy talks about her going to college, a story that has been OutOfFocus since the ''Revelations'' movie, though she had mentioned it in a few episodes in between.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Meggy pulls up the playlist for the Revelations Arc, reminding Mario, Luigi, and Tari of how the Box Club (and Niles, technically) tried to kill them all.

* DidntSeeThatComing: If Mario's reaction is any indication, he did NOT expect Meggy to flat-out refuse to coach him this time.

* DumbassHasAPoint: Mario shuts down Meggy's haunted house experiment before it can even start, telling her it won't work because all it was was a bunch of jumpscares. While Luigi, [[VideoGame/LuigisMansion no stranger to jumpscares]], turns into Baby Luigi and starts bawling, Tari agrees with Mario that Meggy's idea was too superficial to be of any use.
* {{Jumpscare}}: Discussed and utilized. Meggy attempted to use some in her haunted house to help Luigi and Tari to be less scared but was stopped by Mario. Later, Luigi accidentally gives Mario one when he pulls back the conspicuous curtain to find Mario operating the giant Mario head.

Meggy is just one step away from graduation; she just needs to coach someone at something, and she chooses Luigi and Tari to help them become braver. Unfortunately, the two are so cowardly that the slightest thing scares them silly. Disagreeing with her methods, Mario arranges for them to go through his [[VideoGame/MarioTeachesTyping Tunnel of Doom]] that soon goes haywire...
