History Music / Telephone

The music man is still missing in action while Lady Gaga gets into a car with Beyonce of all people, who reprimands Gaga. And of course, Lady Gaga just makes a comparison between a mirror and trust (earning an odd look from Bee). At this point, the music man returns and Beyonce begins singing about someone repeatedly calling her and how she cannot answer. While the [[OverlyLongGag music man]] prances off to go get his sandwich, Beyonce proceeds to poison a man's coffee. In the kitchen, Lady Gaga has followed the music man, and she proceeds to assemble several poisonous sandwiches which they use to poison everyone in the dinner before driving off and dancing in weird costumes, the words "To Be Continued...."\\

%%* DreamTeam: Lady Gaga and Beyoncé.

At the end of Paparazzi, Lady Gaga is [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext being arrested for killing and admitting to killing her boyfriend after he pushed her off a balcony.]] The beginning of the video shows Lady Gaga in jail, and because it's a Lady Gaga video, [[MindScrew no one really knows what is going on half the time]], nor do we have even the slightest idea [[LyricsVideoMismatch what on earth the video has to do with the song]]...

* ContinuityNod: Being a sequel to "Paparazzi", it makes a few references to the other video. The three references being: the mugshot at the end, Beyoncé poisoning Tyrese's drink wearing the same shades Gaga was wearing when poisoning Alexander Skarsgard and Gaga shaking her head several times like she did in the "Paparazzi" video.

* FoodPorn: The hunny bun snack cake Honey Bee and Lady Gaga share before driving. And, lbeit poisoned, the foods prepared for the customers in the diner (waffles, chicken, french fries, ect.) look delicious. And then a brief close up shot of Honey's abusive boyfriend slattering his grandslam breakfast (sunnyside-up eggs, sausage, hashbrowns) in honey before devouring it.

* GratuitousGerman: In the scene where everyone's eating the poisoned food, right after Tyrese's death, you can see "Ein, Zwei, Drei" in the subs while Gaga waits for the other customers to die from their poisoned food, counting "One, Two, Three" in German. Unfortunately it's misspelled. "Ein" means "a/an", while "Eins" means "One".

* StylisticSuck: Once the women reach the diner, the music video devovles into this; including [[FunWithSubtitles poor quality (sometimes in the wrong language) subtitles]], and a fake cooking show called "Lets Make A Sandwich!"
* TakeThatAudience: There have been rumours of her being a hermaphrodite, so of course two jailers strip her naked and walk away.
-->'''Jailer 1''': Told you she didn't have a dick.
-->'''Jailer 2''': [[MsFanService Too bad]].

%%* NiceHat: A folded out telephone, of course

%%* UpToEleven: The whole video, dear Lord.

%%* AffectionateParody: Tarantino, specifically ''Film/KillBill''

%%* PrecisionFStrike:

After the unnecessarily long intro, Lady Gaga answers the Telephone and proceeds to dance while in jail singing about not being able to answer the phone because she is too busy....doing absolutely nothing. Except for, y'know, singing and dancing in jail. While the man in charge of keeping the music playing is somewhere making a sandwich or something, Lady Gaga is let out of jail because someone put up bail money. And of course the officer is on a dating website [[SarcasmMode because of course police officers don't have anything better to do than go on dating websites]].

* GenreThrowback: Heavily inspired by the GirlsBehindBars subgenre of ExploitationFilms. The video depicts things common in such movies, like catfights and prisoners in skimpy, sexy clothes.

%%* GenreThrowback: Of GirlsBehindBars exploitation films.

%%* MakingASpectacleOfYourself: Two words. Cigarette. Sunglasses.

%%* VillainProtagonist: What other role could you bestow upon two people that massacre an entire restaurant?
