Line #40 Recap/DanVsS1E11DanVsTheBeach


1	After his car is destroyed by a pack of beach bozos, Dan seeks revenge on the beach. He runs into Chris while there, and drags him along to help him steal a shark and unleash it on the beach. [[DespiteThePlan Things don’t go as planned]], and they end up stuck on a deserted island.
2	!!This episode provides examples of the following Tropes:
3	* ArcNumber: 43 (minutes later...)
4	* BeachEpisode
5	* BlushSticker: Chris gets one of these when Elise asks if he remembered to put sunscreen on her back. Of course, he ''wanted'' to...
6	* BondOneLiner:
7	-->'''Dan:''' Looks like I just took out the trash!
8	* BrickJoke: The eye patch at the beginning of the episode. While Dan's driving the barge towards the beach, he puts it on.
9	* ContinuityNod: To "Dan Vs. The Salvation Armed Forces", the swimsuit Elise bought for Chris at the end is the one seen in this episode.
10	* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: After getting shot in the rear by a [[MushroomSamba tranquilliser]] arrow:
11	-->'''Dan:''' This water is so wet!
12	* DidntWantAnAdventure: "I just wanted to build a sand castle…"
13	* DesertIsland
14	* DramaticIrony: See ForcedPerspective.
15	* EurekaMoment:
16	-->'''Dan:''' There's sand everywhere! It's so obnoxious!
17	* EyeScream: First, Dan getting hit by the corner of the eye-patch packaging. Then when Chris gets attacked by the lifesaver:
18	-->'''Chris:''' Ahh! Sunscreen! In my eyes!
19	* FelonyMisdemeanor: Dan has this reaction to sand.
20	* ForcedPerspective: When Chris is looking through binoculars at Elise, it looks like the lifesaver is rubbing lotion on her back. Then the camera shifts to show he's actually building a sandcastle behind her.
21	* HereWeGoAgain: "HIPPIES!"
22	* HypocriticalHumor:
23	-->'''Chris''': Have you ever relaxed?\
24	'''Dan''': Once. It made me very stressed.
25	* IntimateLotionApplication: The bikini-clad Elise tries to pull away Chris from following Dan's schemes by flirtatiously asking him to put lotion on her back. He almost does, but Dan drags him away. Later, Chris peeks at Elise through binoculars, and he's distressed and jealous to see that the hunky lifeguard seems to be rubbing lotion on her back instead (he's actually just building a sand castle behind her, but Chris' ForcedPerspective doesn't show it). While he's stuck on an island, he even gets hallucinations of the lifeguard seducing Elise while rubbing lotion on her back. When he comes back, he's relieved to find that she has been asleep the whole time he was away and that she has a bad sunburn on her back, meaning nobody touched her, although she ends up pissed at him for her sunburn.
26	* ITasteDelicious: Chris uses himself as bait to catch something to eat.
27	-->'''Dan:''' Stand still and look more delicious!
28	* KillerRabbit: The penguins look cute at first, but they're mutant penguins with fangs!
29	* MaleGaze: The camera seems to enjoy closing in on Elise’s butt while she’s lying on her stomach.
30	* ManInABikini: Chris’ swimsuit is just a pink bikini bottom.
31	* NewAgeRetroHippie: The missionaries that rescue Dan and Chris.
32	%%* QuicksandSucks
33	* RedEyesTakeWarning: The mutant penguins - right before they attack!
34	* RuleOfThree: When Chris tries to build a shelter for them, it immediately collapses.
35	-->'''Chris:''' Awww, I thought the third time was supposed to be the charm...
36	* SelfDeprecation: The raft that Dan constructs quickly starts sinking.
37	-->'''Dan:''' This is why I don't buy anything built by Americans. We have [[NoOSHACompliance zero standards for safety.]]
38	%%* SharkPool
39	%%* ShoutOut: Little bit of the ''Jaws'' theme, there.
40	* SicklyGreenGlow: Averted! The radioactive waste just looks like... waste. [[TruthInTelevision As it kinda should.]]
41	%%* SurferDude
42	* ThreateningShark: The shark that Dan and Chris steal from the aquarium. They try to let it loose on the beach, but it just turns around and breaks their boat.
43	* WouldHurtAChild: Dan tells the shark to eat the kids.
