Tropical Hospital is scouting for talent in Exclamation, and Harriet puts on a Twister musical featuring the gang to be found, much to the consternation of Candide and Scudworth.


Tropes in this episode:

  • All Musicals Are Adaptations: The musical Harriet produces based on the board game Twister.
  • Big Damn Kiss: JFK and Harriet kiss as part of the play. Unfortunately for Joan (or maybe fortunately, given her situation with Abe), the kiss seems to have awakened something between JFK and Harriet.
  • The Cameo: Glenn, the Janitor from "Litter Kills: Litterally", makes an appearance after the first song, where he discovers the huge mess the clones made and slowly backs away.
  • Groin Attack: Confucius takes a trombone jab to the crotch.
  • High-Pressure Blood: Scudworth stabs himself in the leg in frustration when Candide sees through his attempt at looking like he has control over the clones. He spits blood all over the hallway, bystanders and janitors included.
  • Interface Spoiler: The captions reveal the talent scout is Steve Kerr when he's in the Grassy Knoll, even though he doesn't reveal himself as Steve Kerr until after the play.
  • Musical Episode: It's a self-proclaimed musical episode, though it barely has enough songs (three, one of which is diegetic) to qualify.
  • Non-Indicative Name: The episode is mostly dialogue, with only three songs.
  • Precision F-Strike: Scudworth does this when everyone makes a mess after a chain reaction causes a large fight.
    Scudworth: Now, everyone disband! Why do I keep saying band?! Everyone, get the fuck out! The play is over!
  • Special Edition Title: In place of the recap of the previous "very special Clone High", there is one of Tropical Hospital as part of a prologue scene leading to the titles "Clone High Presents Some Talking but Mostly Songs A Musical Episode" superimposed on a theatrical curtain before it rises, leading into the first song. The standard opening sequence plays afterward.
