Line #15 Recap/BowsersKoopalingsS5E7TheLovePotion


1	After being rejected by Camilla again, Roy asks Iggy for help and provides him with a [[TitleDrop Love Potion]] that will make whoever drinks it fall in love with the person they saw first. However, things go south when Camilla accidentally ends up falling in love with Lemmy instead of Roy.
2
3	!!!Tropes:
4	* AccidentalMisnaming: During the dinner at the [=McQueen=]'s house, Sybill calls her husband Byron "Brian".
5	* AccentSlipUp: Camilla's parents speak with [[IAmVeryBritish a british accent]]. However, when Byron catches Lemmy trying to escape from the wedding, his accent starts slipping into american English.
6	* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: Shawn doesn't seem to be very bright and is often seen drinking.
7	* ArtisticLicenseLaw: Camilla's wedding to Lemmy, and later on Roy after the effects of the Love Potion wear off, is this given that they are both around fifteen-to-sixteen years old. In real life, the marriageable age in most countries is eighteen.
8	* BeardOfSorrow: Roy grows one after Camilla decides she wants to marry Lemmy.
9	* BeehiveHairdo: Camilla's mother styles her hair like this.
10	* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Camilla's parents have spoiled her badly. Camilla shows this by whining to her parents about every single little thing throughout the wedding.
11	* BrickJoke: When he attempts to give her the love potion, Camilla tells Lemmy that she doesn't date guys under six foot ([[TheMetricSystemIsHereToStay roughly under 1.80 meters]]). After the effects of the titular potion wear off Camilla insults Lemmy and tells him that no one wants to date a person under six foot.
12	* CallBack:
13	** Eddie tells Lauren that he feels like he has heard Morton's voice before, alluding to the fact that [[Recap/BowsersKoopalingsS5E6TheCellPhone Morton prank-called Eddie in the previous episode]].
14	** A. Byzmal saying that he got locked inside the storage room and not wanting to give any more details could be seen as a NoodleIncident, but it most likely has to do with the fact that he insulted his customers and business partners after being tricked into thinking he had won one billion dollars in the previous episode.
15	* ChekhovsGun: Iggy explicitly tells Roy that the love potion won't work if the person who drinks it is a homosexual due to IncompatibleOrientation, which becomes relevant later on when Lemmy does not fall in love with Camilla after she makes him drink from the potion.
16	* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: If King Bob-Omb hadn't blocked Roy's path in Goomburger, Lemmy's suffering, and by extension the whole episode, would have been avoided.
17	* DecoyProtagonist: The episode starts as yet again another one of Roy's attempts to win Camilla over. However, it's soon revealed that the star of the episode is actually Lemmy (Though to be fair, the episode's thumbnail on [=YouTube=] does make a lot of emphasis on Lemmy and Camilla).
18	* DysfunctionalFamily: With the exception of Shawn and Sybill, the [=McQueens=] are all a bunch of unpleasant assholes.
19	* ExactWords:
20	** Camilla told Ally to buy Lauren, Wendy, and herself dresses with washed out colors so [[ItsAllAboutMe they wouldn't overshadow her on her wedding day]]. Ally then says that she washed the dresses before the three of them tried them on.
21	** This exchange of words between Shawn and his father.
22	-->'''Byron''': Say "I'm sorry" to your sister!\
23	'''Shawn''': I'm sorry to your sister!
24	* FemalesAreMoreInnocent: Unlike her husband Byron, who only approves of Camilla wanting to marry Lemmy because it will give him a huge reputation boost, Sybill just wants Camilla to be happy (and seems completely oblivious of her daughter's [[{{Jerkass}} repulsive personality]] too).
25	* {{Foil}}: Camilla's parents are foils to one another. Both are incredibely snooty and responsible for their daughter being a SpoiledBrat who only cares about herself, but while Camilla's father doesn't give a lick about who his daughter gets married to as long as he can benefit from it, her mother seems to actually love her, as she is genuinely happy for her wanting to marry someone.
26	* ForcedOutOfTheCloset: Because the love potion doesn't work if the person who drinks it sees someone of a gender they are not attracted to, the Koopalings end up finding out about Lemmy's homosexuality.
27	* {{Gaydar}}: King Boo is easily able to tell that Lemmy is gay because he has witnessed many members of the Koopa royal family come out of the closet before. That and that he found some magazines under Lemmy's bed.
28	* GoldDigger: Ludwig suggests to Lemmy that he marries Camilla for her money and then dates someone else behind her back.
29	* GoneHorriblyRight: Iggy's Love potion does indeed work like a charm... but when it's consumed by a living being with the ability to reason they turn into clingy stalkers who desperately crave the attention of the one they are in love with.
30	* GoneHorriblyWrong: Roy's plan to get Camilla to fall in love with him miserably fails when he gives her a chocolate milkshake instead of the love potion by mistake, and unfortunately for him Camilla hates chocolate which causes her to tell him off. Roy then asks Lemmy to give her the potion and then walk in front of him after she drinks it, but King Bob-Omb gets in his way and doesn't let him pass, causing Camilla to fall in love with Lemmy and make his life a living nightmare.
31	* HalfwayPlotSwitch: The episode starts with Roy tying to win Camilla over and failing, after which the plot changes to Lemmy being subjected to Camilla's clinginess and snobby attitude. At the end of the episode Roy offers to marry Camilla after the effects of the love potion wear off and she no longer finds Lemmy attractive.
32	* IncompatibleOrientation: The reason why Lemmy did not fall in love with Camilla after she made him drink from the potion is because he is gay, and the love potion does not work if the person who drinks it sees someone of a gender they are not attracted to.
33	* InadequateInheritor: For some reason Byron thinks it's best for whoever marries his only daughter to be the heir of his oil company rather than one of his own kids (although, it is understandable in the case of Shawn).
34	* ItsAllAboutMe:
35	** Camilla's father approves of her marriage with Lemmy, not because Camilla wants to marry him, but because having a connection with the Royal family via a member inheriting his oil company would be a huge reputation boost for him. The instant the effects of the love potion go away and Camilla refuses to marry Lemmy, Byron has her marry Roy as a way of making sure this happens. Later episodes even imply that Byron doesn't allow Camilla to divorce Roy.
36	** Camilla acts like the whole wedding revolves around her and bearates her friends, family and even fiancé for every single little thing, ranging from the color of the dresses her friends are wearing to being handed a glass of lemonade.
37	* {{Jerkass}}:
38	** Camilla is much more ruder in this episode than in her past appearences, insulting others for simple mistakes and things that are not even their own fault, showing off how much of an insufferable brat she really is. She even breaks a glass with lemonade (which also was spiked with the counter potion) and insults Larry over it just because it had five ice cubes instead of three.
39	** Camilla's father clearly doesn't give a damn about his daughter as an individual, outright saying that he doesn't care who she gets married to as long as he can benefit from it. The way he acts also shows that he just let Camilla do whatever she wanted growing up and never said "no" to her even once, causing her to become a SpoiledBrat who thinks the world revolves around her.
40	* KnightTemplarBigBrother: Let's just say that Kalin and Myles are ''very'' protective of Camilla.
41	* MassOhCrap: The Koopalings when they find out that Lemmy is gay, and Lemmy himself when his siblings learn of his homosexuality. The attendees of Camilla and Lemmy's wedding also have this reaction when Lemmy reveals his sexuality as a desperate attempt to stop it (except Bowser, who misses it because he was wearing headphones)
42	* MistakenForGay:
43	** Some of the Koopalings thought that Roy might have been a homosexual.
44	--->'''Ludwig''': You wear [[PinkMeansFeminine pink and purple]], you're always trying to be [[AttentionWhore the center of attention]], and [[MidlifeCrisisCar you drive a topless car]].
45	** When Byron catches Morton helping Lemmy escape his wedding with Camilla, he assumes that Morton is his boyfriend.
46	* NoodleIncident:
47	** That time Iggy tried to build a RobotGirl [[{{Robosexual}} for himself]].
48	** Lauren recalls the time Eddie ruined a wedding by pushing the best man into the wedding cake.
49	** Camilla's mother tells her that a fight has broken out in the main hall. Later on during the wedding Eddie is covered in bruises.
50	* ObnoxiousEntitledHousewife: PlayedForLaughs. Camilla acts like a stereotypical Karen after Lemmy says that the food at Hotheads is a bit too hot for him.
51	-->'''Camilla''': Get the manager, now!
52	* OverlyLongName: Camilla's full name is Camilla Claudia Ophelia Daniella [=McQueen=]
53	-->'''King Boo''': Which one of those is her real name?
54	* ParentalObliviousness: Lemmy announces to everyone in the wedding that he is a homosexual as a desperate attempt to stop it. Bowser manages to not hear his son screaming out loud that he's gay because he was wearing headphones.
55	* PornStash: Lemmy keeps one under his bed.
56	* PushoverParents: Just one look at Sybill and Byron will give you the answer as to why Camilla is such a brat.
57	* RichBitch: Ludwig calls Camilla this after Larry points out that his suggestion of [[GoldDigger Lemmy marrying Camilla for her money]] and dating other guys behind her back would be infidelity.
58	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Lemmy attempts to escape from his wedding with Camilla by fleeing to the Frosted Kingdom. Camilla's family finds this out and force him to marry her, however.
59	* SpannerInTheWorks: Lemmy's suffering could have been avoided had King Bob-Omb not blocked Roy's path in Goomburger.
60	* SpoiledBrat: Lemmy points out to Roy that Camilla is nothing but a brat in spite of her good looks.
61	* StraightGay: The Koopalings figure out that Lemmy is gay as a result of him not falling in love with Camilla when she made him drink the love potion and then look at her.
62	* TokenGoodTeammate: Sybill and Shawn are the only decent people in the [=McQueen=] family, with Sybill being really kind at all times and Shawn being a drunken bum that just minds his own business.
63	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: If only King Bob-Omb hadn't blocked Roy's way...
64	* ValentinesDayEpisode: Subverted. The episode was announced as a Valentine's Day Episode, but it's not actually one.
