* BreakingTheFourthWall: To get rid of everyone so he can reach the toilet, Patrick removes the background layer with all the characters on it. He then pulls it back down after flushing Daddy Dartfish:
-->'''Patrick''': ''[to characters on layer]'' How about you guys? Doin' alright?

* ADayInTheLimelight: Squidina plays a bigger role than Patrick here, being the main wedding planner.

to:

* ContinuityNod: Many to "Klopnodian Heritage Festival".
** In the OldTimeyCinemaCountdown, the number 1 is replaced with an image of a sausage. "Klopnodian Heritage Festival" established "phony-baloney", an identical-looking sausage, as a staple of Klopnod's ForeignQueasine.
** In the wedding video, Bunny is wearing the same outfit she came to the festival in.
** The Klopnodian flag, which is just a tablecloth, can be seen hanging on the tent that Patrick and Squidina set up for the wedding. Patrick wears this same pattern on his underwear.
** Many of the wedding guests previously appeared as background characters in "Klopnodian Heritage Festival".
* ADayInTheLimelight: Squidina plays a bigger role than Patrick here, being the main wedding planner. Cecil and Bunny also get a lot of focus.
* HappilyMarried: Cecil and Bunny are both very happy with their marriage. Both of them dread needing to return to their unmarried lifestyles, and Squidina is determined to help get them married again.


Added DiffLines:

* OldTimeyCinemaCountdown: The episode opens with a countdown to Cecil and Bunny's wedding video: 3, 2, then a sausage (a staple of Klopnodian cuisine).

Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Parodied. Patrick starts the episode by juggling a blowtorch, axe, and chainsaw, which are all things he could use to escape after he gets locked in the bathroom. When Daddy Dartfish comes in as Patrick is juggling, he suggests that Patrick... use "that bottle he's been juggling the whole time" to send a MessageInABottle and get help. Patrick realizes that he "HAS been juggling a bottle the whole time!", even though he never actually was.


Added DiffLines:

* TheOner:
** The shot of the family entering the bathroom as Patrick tries to get help runs for 97 seconds.
** There's also a 44 second shot of random people going into the bathroom.

'''The Commode Episode'''

'''Original air date''': TBA

Patrick has a PottyEmergency during his show and runs into the bathroom, right as Cecil is in the middle of fixing the doorknob. Now, everyone who enters the bathroom can't get out -- until Patrick gets help from an unexpected source.

!!The Commode Episode contains examples of:
* BreakingTheFourthWall: To get rid of everyone so he can reach the toilet, Patrick removes the background layer with all the characters on it. He then pulls it back down after flushing Daddy Dartfish:
-->'''Patrick''': ''[to characters on layer]'' How about you guys? Doin' alright?
* BurningRubber: Patrick runs into the bathroom so fast that a trail of fire follows him.
* ChekhovsGun: Strangely inverted. Daddy Dartfish suggests that Patrick send a message for help with "that bottle he's been juggling the whole time," causing Patrick to note that he ''has'' really been juggling one. However, in all of the earlier scenes, he's not actually juggling a bottle.
* ExtremelyShortTimespan: The episode takes place over a single episode of Patrick's show, which is an hour at most.
* HereWeGoAgain: The episode ends with Patrick again being locked in the bathroom by [[LaserGuidedKarma a girl he forced to take his place on the show while he was gone]].
* IncrediblyLameFun: According to Cecil, "there's no greater thrill in life than installing a new doorknob!"
* LockedInARoom: Patrick, his family, his neighbors, and even random people get trapped in the bathroom because there's no doorknob.
* {{Malaproper}}:
** Patrick asks for a "volume-teer" from the audience.
** Patrick pronounces "OpenSesame" as "open recipe!"
* MessageInABottle: Patrick uses a bottle he's been juggling to get help when he's trapped in the bathroom. He has Daddy Dartfish act as the messenger and flushes him in the bottle down the toilet. He comes back with Tinkle, who gives him the doorknob to escape.
* OpenSesame: Patrick tries to open the bathroom door by shouting "[[{{Malaproper}} OPEN RECIPE!]]"
* SurprisinglyCreepyMoment: An intense close-up of the skeleton randomly screaming "''you'll never get out!''" as lightning flashes.
* RhymingEpisode: "Commode" and "episode" rhyme.
* WaitingSkeleton: Subverted. When Patrick wonders how long it is before he starves to death in the bathroom, we see a "ten minutes later" time card and then a skeleton taking his place. Then Patrick walks in and says:
-->'''Patrick''': Glad I was able to kill ten minutes with this arts-and-crafts skeleton made from bar soap and toilet paper rolls!

'''Tying the Klop-Knot'''

'''Original air date''': TBA

When Cecil and Bunny celebrate their anniversary by watching their wedding videos, Patrick goes back in time and eats their wedding cake, invalidating their marriage. Now he and Squidina have to orchestrate an official Klopnodian wedding before sundown or else Bunny will be forced to return to Klopnod.

!!Tying the Klop-Knot contains examples of:
* ADayInTheLimelight: Squidina plays a bigger role than Patrick here, being the main wedding planner.
* HopeSpot: The second wedding is crashed by a future Patrick "from the year 3 million." He tells Patrick not to eat the wedding cake, to Squidina's relief... because that's meant for the ''future'' Patrick to do.
* LetsMeetTheMeat: Patrick hallucinates the wedding cake trying to convince him to eat it.
* LongList: The list of Klopnodian wedding traditions is so long that it unspools on the floor and covers Squidina's face.
* OldNewBorrowedAndBlue: Klopnodian wedding dress traditions are for something old, bruised, stuffed, and confused. This winds up being ''Patrick's grandfather'', who had been eating a sandwich and locked in the trunk where Bunny keeps her actual nice wedding dress.
* RaceAgainstTheClock: The wedding has to be completed before sundown, or else Cecil will return to his bachelor lifestyle and Bunny will be taken back to Klopnod.
* SureLetsGoWithThat: Squidina fears that the wedding is ruined when Patrick's future self travels back in time to fight him over the wedding cake. Turns out she actually just completed the latest tradition, earning the Klopguardians' approval.
-->'''Squidina''': Oh! ''(giggles)'' Yeah, well, y'know, that was, ''totally'' on purpose... ''(smiles nervously)''
* WeAreNotGoingThroughThatAgain: Squidina sees Patrick drooling at the wedding cake during the second wedding. She is ''not'' having it.
-->'''Squidina''': Patrick, remember how we got in this mess in the first place! [...] ''Don't eat the cake!''
* WeddingEpisode: Patrick and Squidina have to set up a second wedding for their parents after Patrick's TimeTravel shenanigans invalidate their first one.
