13 | %%* AreWeThereYet: Calvin does this to Chill. |

32 | * CoolAndUnusualPunishment: The first two trials - eating a bunch of stale Kit Kat bars and going three miles on a treadmill. |

37 | %%* DistressedDude: Calvin and Hobbes, though they don't seem to care. |
38 | * DoNotAdjustYourSet: Rupert does this to freak out Calvin, though it loses its luster when another alien exclaims "HiMom". |
39 | %%* DressingAsTheEnemy: Calvin and Hobbes do this in Chapter 8, though it doesn't really work. |

58 | --> Susie was playing on the sidewalk with Mr Bun.\ |
59 | She was performing a ritual known to us only as "THE TEA PARTY".\ |
60 | That's not me talking by the way, Calvin slipped it in while I wasn't looking. |
61 | ** Then there's this: |
62 | --> '''Calvin:''' But anyway, if this is a UFO, it has to have some kind of EscapePod or something! It's in the rules!\ |
63 | '''Hobbes:''' It is?\ |
64 | '''Calvin:''' Plus this chapter would be extremely boring if we just sat in a cell all day. |
65 | ** Another one: |
66 | --> '''Tracer:''' Who's Earl? |
67 | --> '''Calvin:''' The ship captain! Didn't you know that?\ |
68 | '''Spiff:''' Not really. He wasn't called Earl until the end of the second movie. |

75 | * MotorMouth: Rupert's small rant: |
76 | --> "The name Calvin is a western theologion guy who believed in things I can't remember right now. and Hobbes is the same, and further more, [[RougeAnglesOfSatin you spelled 'Hobbes' H-O-B-S, when it is really spelled H-O-B-B-E-S.]] [[SmallNameBigEgo And clearly the name is Calvin and Hobbes, but someone scratched it out, and wrote, Hobbes and Calvin,]] [[BreadEggsMilkSquick plus most of these items haven't been invented yet,]] and I've looked it up, and GROSS isn't a club within any part of this immediate area!" |
77 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: The Goose of Death. |
78 | * NonverbalMiscommunication: Hobbes waves frantically to Calvin - he replies to his mother, "Hobbes says hi." |

84 | %%* SanitySlippage: Chill. |
85 | * ShoutOut: |

87 | ** Then there's this: |
88 | --->'''Calvin:''' OK. You've reminded me of that scene in that stupid ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'' movie, and all at once, I've lost interest. Thanks a lot. |

108 | %%* AlliterativeTitle: All the chapter titles. |
109 | * BirthdayEpisode: Calvin's first birthday since he got rid of the FloatingTimeline back in ''Fanfic/TheCollective'' and thus, his first one to subvert the AgelessBirthdayEpisode trope since he turned six, occurs during the fic. |
110 | * DarkerAndEdgier: ''Good '''grief''' yes.'' For one thing, [[spoiler: Human!Rupert's character]] has been completely revamped from a wacky Creator/JimCarrey knockoff to a grim ShellShockedVeteran with a downright ''tragic'' backstory. His kidnapping of Calvin and Hobbes is a much more serious affair here, as everyone reacts to it appropriately. |
