1!!Tropes for "Serpent of Evil River"
2* BeautifulSingingVoice: For being a big, scary sea serpent, Carmen is revealed to have [[VocalDissonance a lovely voice]].
3* BenevolentMonsters: Although her appearance comes off as frightening, Carmen proves to be a gentle creature who only wants to sing "Habanera" to her heart's content. She even tugs along the boat to bring Courage and Muriel safely home.
4* BilingualBonus: At the climax, Carmen deliberately sings the last line of "Habanera" so loudly that it causes the Stalactites to fall around the captain in a cage-like fashion. For those who don't know, the last line translates to "Watch out", as though letting both the Captain and the audience know [[BewareTheNiceOnes she's not to be trifled with]].
5* SeaSerpents: Courage and his owners cross paths with Carmen, a huge sea serpent who's much more interested in singing for them than eating them.
6* {{Symbolism}}: When the Captain first greets Courage and his family, he looks like an upstanding business man who just wants to take them on a leisurely boat ride. Once they're far from shore, he sheds not only his kindly demeanor, but takes of his disguise to reveal a [[BitchInSheepsClothing shady and obsessive game hunter]].
