Alvin watches a scary show about zombies after Dave tells him not to, and believes there may be a zombie apocalypse abound.
Tropes in this episode
- Big "NO!":Miss Croner: I have to apologize myself. I shouldn't have filled his head with all those stories. Next time we'll watch a vampire movie.Dave: No!Miss Croner: All right, all right, werewolves.Everyone: NO!
- Contrived Coincidence: Miss Croner says that the three signs for zombification are foot dragging or outstretched arms, throbbing or mouth drool, and sneezing in threes. This is exactly what happens to Eleanor, Dave, and Jeanette, respectively.
- For Eleanor, she injures her leg playing soccer, and has to go around dragging it.
- For Dave, he has an anasthesia, and it causes his mouth to drool.
- For Jeanette, she just sneezes for an unexplained reason. Apparantly it "must be allergy season."
- When Miss Croner of all people shows a sign for zombification, she also sneezes in threes and says the same thing Jeanette said: "Must be allergy season."
- This is not a sign for zombification, but Brittany somehow also gets ink around her eyes when she rubs them after Miss Smith tells her that she could hurt her eyes by having them too close to her computer screen.
- Irony: One of the zombification signs is sneezing three times, which is what Miss Croner does later in the episode, but she doesn't notice that it's a sign for zombification.
- Rule of Three: Two quote Miss Croner: "Zombies always sneeze in threes."
- Show Within a Show: The Zombie Show.
