3!!Tropes:
4* ADayInTheLimelight: For Darryl.
5* AnAesop:
6** Teamwork makes the dream work.
7** You can't do everything on your own, so it's important to let other people help.
8* BottleEpisode: Almost the entire episode takes place at Brighton Middle School.
9* CharlieAndTheChocolateParody: The game Darryl and his team plays, ''The Fizz Whizz's Emporium'', takes place in a soda factory, with a boss who resembles Willy Wonka and [=NPCs=] that look like Oompa-Loompas.
10* ContinuityNod: Principal O'Connor mentions how much he loves soda. He was seen drinking some strawberry soda in "A Soda to Remember".
11* DeepImmersionGaming: Most of the action is shown as 16-bit game footage.
12* GracefulLoser: Even though he lost his bet with Darryl, Principal O'Connor is glad Darryl finally learned the importance of teamwork.
13* JerkassRealization: After Darryl spends the whole episode belittling Molly and Libby and refusing to let them help, he tries to defeat the boss on his own and gets a savage beating. Darryl apologizes to Molly and Libby for being harsh and allows them to help him.
14* NiceGirl: Libby acted this way towards the [=NPCs=] and allowed them to have some equipment. [[ChekhovSGun They later helped her defeat the boss.]]
15* SharingABody: Scratch takes over the left half of Molly's body to compensate for her lack of coordination in that area. It takes a while for the two of them to get the hang of it.

18** After defeating the final boss, Darryl and company's sprites do a victory dance not unlike that of ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}''.
19* SuperSpecialMove: Scratch figures out how he can make his and Molly's characters do a SpinAttack. He calls it the Scratch Attack.
