Meganekko is no longer a trope. It's a Fanspeak term. Moving wicks to Bespectacled Cutie when appropriate.

* WeWantOurJerkBack: Tracy and Shamus clean Jim's shoes after he uses them to get what he wants. This causes a personality change, shifting from him being a bully to being really nice. REALLY nice. To the point to where he recites love poetry to Tracy. Having enough, Tracy, Seamus and Jake work together to get Jim's bully persona back by making his shoes smelly again. Tracy laments it's better to bring back someone you know than someone you don't.

!!Tracey [=McBean=] requires the following for her latest invention:
* ABoyAGirlAndABabyFamily: Tracey, Gordon, and Megan, though the latter isn't an infant.
* AnimatedAdaptation: Also counts as an AdaptationExpansion.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Megan, who's also a BrattyHalfPint at times.
* BeachEpisode
* BeyondTheImpossible: There is literally next to no scientific basis for any of the inventions shown in the series. That and some of the episodes take things to rather ludicrous proportions.
* DramaticWind: Invoked when Tracey is proposing a dare to ride down Mt. Massacre to Jim and Jake. Shamus turned it up to eleven by invoking a Dramatic Thunderstorm telling a bogus urban legend about a guy who suffered a DisneyDeath riding down the mountain (all they found of him was his nose).
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Many of the inventions count, but the Lost Thing Finder takes the crown.
* FunnyAfro: Tracey's dad once had this, before he started losing his hair.
* GadgeteerGenius
* HomemadeInventions: Tracey's signature talent.
* LimitedWardrobe
* {{Meganekko}}
* MesACrowd: "Multiplication", though the Shamus clones are bite-sized.
* MonsterOfTheWeek: Crazy Invention of the Week seems more appropriate.
* MrExposition: Well, Miss Exposition in this case.

* {{Sidekick}}: Shamus
* SitcomArchNemesis: Jim and Jake [=McConnolly=].
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: During the "School Camp" episode, Tracey invents a device to communicate with aliens. She wound up communicating with glow worms instead.
* ThickLineAnimation
* TwoShorts
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: In an attempt to swindle Tracey out of her [=H2Grow=] formula, Jim [=McConnolly=] decides to make them tell him by telling Jake's fear, which he says is Custard. Tracey and Shamus don't believe him. [[spoiler:When Tracey tricks them into taking a version of the formula spiked with Custard, it turns out that Jake's fear really is Custard. And after the events of the episode, Jake has gotten over his fear, but now ''Jim'' has a fear of Custard (it involved a Custard Twister, and we'll leave it at that).]]
