Recap / Re Boot S 1 E 8 Enzo The Smart

Go To

Enzo messes with the system clock to become twice of smart, but this causes everyone in Mainframe to become idiots!

This episode has examples of

  • Aesop: There are no shortcuts to knowledge. You have to work for it.
  • Annoying Video Game Helper: What Enzo's team become In-Universe, since they've gotten too dumb to realize they're useless and only get in the way. Enzo wins by thinking to send them to "help", and thus slow down, the User's character in the last race.
  • Art Shift: "Dude! Everything's gone 8-bit!"
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: Enzo wanted to be twice as smart as everyone in Mainframe, which the system clock does by making everyone half as smart as Enzo. In fact, the only person who doesn't change much is Mike the TV.
  • Oh, Crap!: Enzo, when a game cube arrives while trying to get back to the Office to undo the damage.
  • Running Gag: Almost literally, Bob running while holding a pole (after failing the pole vault). He ironically ends up helping Enzo win by running into the User.
