1 | ->"You know, you can go ahead and skip this episode. [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial I'm sure nothing significant will happen.]] [[BlatantLies It's probably just]] {{Filler}}." |

3 | |
4 | !!Tropes |
5 | * ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: The tomb keeper initiation ceremony involves carving open the initiate's back, burning an intricate symbol into their flesh, and making them watch ''Film/BeverlyHillsChihuahua''. |
6 | ** "I've been tortured by my own father, I'm going to spend the rest of my life underground, and I just watched the worst Creator/JamieLeeCurtis movie since Film/ChristmasWithTheKranks!" |
7 | * BatmanGambit: Marik notes that his entire evil plan could potentially be undone just by any of the other characters [[WeaksauceWeakness looking in his general direction]]. |
8 | * BigStupidDoodooHead: Joey has apparently spent the first two hours of his duel making fun of Odion for being bald, even though Odion's really not at all fazed by it. |
9 | * DeathByChildbirth: Veronica dies giving birth to Marik, leaving her three children at her husband's mercy. |
10 | * GentleGiant: Odion just cannot pull off looking consistently intimidating, much to Marik's dismay. |
11 | * HappilyAdopted: Zigzagged. Odion absolutely adores his adoptive mother, but [[AbusiveParents Hank Ishtar]] gets no such fond memories. |
12 | * HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: All three Ishtar children experienced some level of this. |
13 | * MomentKiller: Marik ruins yet another serious Odion moment. |
14 | -->'''Odion:''' Mother... I finally got to be a tombkeeper. Just... like you always wanted. I can only hope [[TearJerker you're proud of me]]. |
15 | -->'''Marik:''' She's not even your real mom, douchebag! |
16 | * PokeThePoodle: Melvin calls Marik out for relying too heavily on this trope and rightfully declares himself EvilerThanThou. |
17 | * ShoutOut: "Yes, it's true! I am Kira! I mean, Marik." |
18 | ** "And there's the obligatory Manga/DeathNote reference. I never thought we'd sink that low." |
19 | ** Also, the joke in the title of this episode makes more sense when you realize that this is episode [[Literature/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy 42.]] |
20 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: There's a brief joke about Hank being unable to decide if he should name his son Ma'''r'''ik or Ma'''l'''ik (which has been a point of contention among ''Franchise/YuGiOh'' fans ever since the 4!Kids dub named him). |
21 | * TakeCareOfTheKids: Veronica charges Odion with taking care of his younger siblings on her deathbed. |
22 | * TemptingFate: Veronica doesn't even get to finish telling Odion that he'll be a tomb keeper unless she has another son before we get a GilliganCut to Marik's birth. |
23 | ** She falls prey to this again when she specifically warns Odion against letting Marik "grow up to be a giant douche like his father". [[JumpedOffTheSlipperySlope Whoops]]. |
24 | * ToBeContinuedRightNow: The "To Be Continued" message right after Marik's SplitPersonalityTakeover is quickly followed by a "Just kidding". |
25 | * TriggerPhrase: Marik accidentally sets off a flashback to Odion's infancy by calling him a "big baby". |
26 | * TheUnfavorite: Odion gets this by being the only non-biological child in the Ishtar family. His mother may have seen him as her son, but his father views him as a servant. |
27 | * VocalDissonance: Odion had his deep, booming voice even as a baby. Marik also has the same voice as a newborn, [[RuleOfFunny and can talk for some reason]]. |
