'''Basic Trope''': A character does something dangerous, but rather than explicitly show it, we GilliganCut to an ambulance racing down the street.
* '''Straight''': [[UnluckyEverydude Bob]] asks [[WomenAreWiser Alice]], [[TemptingFate "What could possibly go wrong?"]] Next scene or panel is an ambulance with lights and sirens on.
* '''Exaggerated''':
** The next panel shows paramedics working frantically inside of the ambulance to keep Bob in stable condition.
** Rather than an ambulance, the next scene or panel shows a hearse.
* '''Downplayed''': We see Bob injure himself and cry out "call an ambulance!" Cut to the ambulance parked outside the house as an EMT checks Bob over.
* '''Justified''': Bob is doing/has done something so dangerous that a visit by the [=EMT=]s is necessary.
* '''Inverted''':
** The ambulance rushes by, then Bob suggests doing something stupid.
** An ambulance driver does something stupid, cut to Bob running to rescue them.
* '''Subverted''': The ambulance drives straight past, and the camera pans to Bob, who's just finishing up the job having done nothing wrong at all.
* '''Double Subverted''': Until his handiwork [[EpicFail suddenly and inexplicably bursts into flames]], and we cut to a fire engine.
* '''Parodied''':
** First Bob's attempt at making [[EpicFail cereal]] goes [[GoneHorriblyWrong Horribly Wrong]]. Cut to the ambulance racing down the road, and getting into a crash. Cut to a motorcade of ambulances rushing to deal with all the crash victims.
** After ambulance, cut back to Bob. "Where the hell's that ambulance?" Cut to tow truck.
* '''Zig Zagged''': ???
* '''Averted''': We see Bob get injured and the ambulance doesn't come for him.
* '''Enforced''': RuleOfFunny

* '''Invoked''': ???
* '''Exploited''': Evil Alex injures Bob so the ambulances will rush and [[ForTheEvulz drive over his landmines.]]
* '''Defied''': The paramedics have been taking Bob to the hospital so many times, they just don't bother coming anymore.
* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': ???
* '''Implied''': [[TheDitz Bob]] is mentioned taking up woodcarving at the beginning of the episode. [[BrickJoke Halfway through the episode]] [[FunnyBackgroundEvent an ambulance races down towards his street during another event]].
* '''Played For Drama''': The abrupt-cut works as a GoryDiscretionShot, because Bob's accident was so horrifying and disastrous, [[TakeOurWordForIt that most people would not have the stomach to tolerate it]]; and his injuries are so serious and there's slim chance that he may survive.
