6	!!''Spy and Pyro'' provides examples of the following tropes:

9	* BigBallOfViolence: It results in the death of a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Goomba.]]
10	* BinomiumRidiculus: As a nod to the WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadrunner cartoons, both the Spy and the Pyro are given genus/species names (''Espionagius Sapiens Mysentrii'' and ''Incendio [[FlameWar Flamewaricus]]'' respectively)
11	* ChaseScene: A short, [[Series/TheBennyHillShow Benny Hill-esque]] one.

23	* ShapesOfDisappearance: The RED Pyro realizes an enemy Spy is nearby due to a bite-shaped piece of the sausage they were cooking being missing, with the eaten part of the sausage being outlined with a question mark at the center.
24	* ShipperOnDeck: At the wedding, [[VideoGame/HalfLife Gordon and Alyx]] are arm in arm as Alyx ends up catching the bouquet. Eli and Barney immediately nudge the couple and grin.
25	* SilenceIsGolden: Referenced in the CreditsGag which states that [[HeroicMime Gordon Freeman]] provided the voice acting.
26	* VisualInnuendo: [[spoiler:The entire "sex scene" between the Spy and Pyro consists of traffic cones being moved through rings on ''VideoGame/GarrysMod''.]]
