Bling-Bling Boy wants another rematch on the real life battle royale game from last season and once more kidnaps all involved to participate. However he's buffed out all the flaws of his suit and has some new tricks as well. Will Johnny manage to win this time?


Tropes

  • Advancing Wall of Doom: Similar to the battle royal game it's parodying like Fort Nite, a barrier is slowly enclosing around the play area and anyone knocked into it is taken out of the game.
  • Beam-O-War: Johnny and Eugene get into a brief one with their double blasters resulting in them knocking their life bars to one percent.
  • Cheaters Never Prosper: Somewhat, Eugene cheats through the game by using a shield over his armor making it impossible to damage his life bar. He would've won if his scientists didn't get touched by all the goodwill of the others and turned off his shield, allowing Johnny a fair fight against him.
  • Chekhov's Gun: The stick Gil finds during the game. Johnny uses it in the climax against Eugene to take away his suit's last life point.
  • Chekhov's Gunman: The turtle that Bling-Bling Boy keeps abusing through the episode, it ends up aiding Johnny in the climax of his battle with Eugene and allows him to win.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Not the death kind, but Dukey gives up his life points to keep Johnny in the game.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Eugene loses due to two factors: Sending his scientists down a trap door when they question him on using a shield during the game and abusing a turtle he keeps coming across. The scientists manage to crawl back up and deactivate the shield and the turtle returns Johnny's goodwill by pushing him away from the advancing shield and toward Eugene to score the last hit on his life points.
  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Mr. Black and Albert use their revive guns to refill Mr. White and Dark Vegen's lifebars after seeing them immoblie due to their lifebars almost depleted. Mr. White and Dark Vegan return the gesture by eliminating them from the game. Luckily karma hits the two not soon after when Eugene find and eliminates the two, with Mr. Black rightly pissed at White for his treachery.
  • Running Gag: The discussion of "Nice Guys Finishing Last".
  • Sequel Episode: To Battle Royale from the first season.
  • Sequel Hook: Johnny once more wins the game, but Susan and Mary claim "least until next time".
  • Team Killer: Mary to the Mole King whom she had partnered up with. When she gets enamored with Gill, she purposefully blasts him out of the game. When she gets eliminated, she's met with a Disapproving Look from him to which she sheepishly apologizes.
  • Tempting Fate: Just before Eugene takes them, Johnny comments at least Gil isn't coming that time. Cue Gil suddenly showing up and getting snagged along with Johnny and Dukey.
