6 | |
7 | !!Tropes featured: |
8 | * BaitAndSwitch: Kang and Kodos appear to be moved by Maggie's memories at first. However, they reveal that their "tears" were actually {{vomit|IndiscretionShot}}. |
9 | * CassandraTruth: During the roast, Mr. Burns takes the podium to declare that Homer is a danger to Springfield. The audience doesn't take this seriously, thinking his claims are just part of the act. |
10 | -->'''Mr. Burns:''' Why are you laughing? His bungling has shortened your lives and mutated your children!\ |
11 | ''(the audience continues to laugh)'' |
12 | * ClipShow: The last proper one in the show's run. The writers now do ThreeShorts episodes if they run out of good ideas for a full episode. |
13 | -->'''Singer:''' ''(singing)'' Sorry for the clip show! |
14 | * ContinuityNod: [[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack The Imperial March]] is [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E7MargeGetsAJob once]] [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS6E18AStarIsBurns again]] used to introduce Mr. Burns. |
15 | * DiscreditedMeme: InUniverse, the Springfield Police has been cracking down on people impersonating movie characters. Dr. Hibbert and Moe get arrested for dressing like and quoting [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] and Film/AustinPowers, respectively. |
16 | * HehHehYouSaidX: When Mr. Burns presents the times Homer has caused trouble at the plant: |
17 | -->'''Mr. Burns:''' Just look at all of his catastrophic nincompoopery!\ |
18 | '''Carl:''' ''(laughing)'' "Poop." |
19 | * JumpingTheShark: InUniverse. The end song features a bunch of crazy ideas mixed with mundane ones, and one of the crazy ideas is Homer ''literally'' jumping over a shark. |
20 | * NavelDeepNeckline: Agnes, parodying Music/JenniferLopez's outfit at the 2000 Grammy Awards. According to Sideshow Mel it is being held together [[FanDisservice by the collective will of every man in the room]]. |
21 | * NoodleIncident: Kang was involved with Creator/ShannenDoherty at one point, and he doesn't want to talk about it. |
22 | * RecycledAnimation: The same sequence of Dr. Hibbert laughing, Nelson laughing, and Mr. Burns saying "Excellent", is reused a few times during the roast. |
23 | * ShoutOut: Chief Wiggum calls Homer "[[Film/ForrestGump Forrest Plump]]", and Moe and Hibbert are dressed like Film/AustinPowers and [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]]. |
24 | * SignatureLaugh: During the "hold for laughing" prompts, Dr. Hibbert, Nelson, and Mr. Burns do theirs. |
25 | -->'''Dr. Hibbert:''' Eh hehehe! |
26 | -->'''Nelson:''' Ha ha! |
27 | -->'''Mr. Burns:''' Excellent! |
28 | * StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Moe complains that Kang and Kodos are stealing his skit, including the helmet that reads Homer's mind (showing a crudely made helmet). |
29 | * VisualPun: One of the stills from "They'll Never Stop the Simpsons " has Homer [[JumpTheShark jumping over a shark in waterskis]]. [[invoked]] |
30 | * WeDidntStartTheBillyJoelParodies: The end song "They'll Never Stop The Simpsons". So far, they seem to be right. |
