!! "Snapnapped" provides examples of:

* AccidentalMisnaming: Keswick corrects Snaptrap the first couple of times he says his name incorrectly, but quickly gives up. Keswick does it with his own name at the end of the episode, as well as Snaptrap's, with Snaptrap correcting him.
* BlandNameProduct:
** When Keswick presents his Donut-omic Atomizer to T.U.F.F., Dudley is seen playing a [[UsefulNotes/GameBoy Game Pup]].
** The donut store that Keswick goes to for his jelly donut run is called Dumpin' Donuts.
* TheCameo: Among the villains that Snaptrap invites to D.O.O.M. HQ for a party to celebrate its new technology are the Chameleon, Bird Brain, and Zippy.
* ChekhovsGag: Near the beginning of this episode, Keswick invents the Dount-omic Atomizer, which not only creates delectable donuts out of thin air, but also captures a baker's dozen of villains in one fell swoop. Near the end of the episode, he uses it to capture Snaptrap and his henchmen to prove to T.U.F.F. that he is still on their side.
* CrackOwMyBack: Keswick does this after revealing to T.U.F.F. that he was loyal to them all along.

* TongueTwister: The password to disable Keswick's security system is "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers".

* YouGetMeCoffee: The Chief makes Kewsik get him a box of jelly-filled donuts when Keswick reveals that his Donut-omic Atomizer only makes glazed donuts. As he does this, Keswick complains about T.U.F.F. not appreciating his GadgeteerGenius talents. At the end of the episode, after Keswick uses his Donut-omic Atomizer to capture every villain in Petropolis, the Chief decides to have Dudley get the donuts from now on so Keswick can focus more on his inventions.
