Okay, stick with me here. Let's think of the emotions as filmmakers making a movie. Specifically, an animated family-friendly movie. Riley represents the target demographic for this type of movie. Joy could represent the executive producer who only sees animation as kid stuff and thinks the only way to make these kinds of movies successful (which, in the producer's mind, usually only refers to how much money it makes and how many awards it wins) is to distract the kids with bright colors and nonstop jokes. (Looking at you, {{WesternAnimation/Minions}}. And you too, [[WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie Emoji Movie]].) I mean, look at how she acts when she sabotages Riley's dream - which, need I remind you, is made to look like a film studio.\\
On the other end of the spectrum, we have Sadness, who represents a creative mind who wishes to challenge audiences with more emotion than just blind amusement. Sadness wants Riley (and therefore, the audience) to watch these movies and go through multiple emotions. At the end, Sadness has inspired Joy and the other emotions to work together to make Riley's life more meaningful. And that's what this movie does. It presents itself as a silly comedy about little people in your head, but then it makes you feel all the emotions you see onscreen - sometimes more than one at a time. Which is really what Pixar does best.

* Alternatively, Anger might have gotten a lot of work when Riley was little: part of his job is to ensure that things are ''fair'' for Riley, and very small children don't have the best grasp on what's fair. For instance, little Riley might have thought that not getting ice cream for dinner wasn't fair, so Anger takes over to express how unfair it is. As she gets older, she gets a better grasp on what's fair, leading Anger to take a back seat.

Up until the move, anyway. Remember that Joy was ready to snatch the controls back from ''anybody'', to keep Riley happy. You can get sad about all sorts of things really, although clearly Joy didn't see use in it. But ultimately Riley had a happy home life, her needs provided for, with good parents and good friends. The things she got angry about were even more trivial than the things she got sad about. Anger had so little experience, that it's no wonder that throughout the move, rather than becoming absolutely determined to stick it out until Joy came back, he just kept throwing tantrums and acting rashly.

[[WMG:Riley will be a rather sentimental romantic when she gets older.]]
Between grinning at the imaginary boyfriend and expressing a preference for "Tragic Vampire Romance Island", Sadness appears to be the most romance-inclined of the emotions. Consequently, once that puberty button is hit and Riley starts showing an interest in romantic relationships, Sadness will probably see a lot of activity.

Rather than Riley's Mom and her teacher happening to have dated / had direct contact with the exact same Brazilian helicopter pilot, it's a bit more likely (to this troper at least) that he's actually been in an advertisement for travel in Brazil that both women have seen. Riley's Mom wants to get away from the stressful situation that her family is embroiled in, Riley's teacher is looking forward to her vacation away from all the brats she's in charge of, and of course neither of them particularly objects to fantasising about a nice hunk of beefcake in the process. Plus, "Come -- ''fly'' with me, gatinha!" totally sounds like an advertising catchphrase, like a less overtly-sexual SpearCounterpart version of the infamous "I'm Cindy, fly me to [x]" airplane adverts of the 1970s.
