Go To

Muscle Man bets Mordecai that if he kisses Margaret within the week he will wear a diaper, and if he doesn't Mordecai will have to.

Tropes

  • Almost Kiss: Between Mordecai and Margaret.
  • Bait-and-Switch: When Mordecai puckers up to kiss, Margaret bypasses his mouth and goes to his ear to whisper, "Have a nice week, diaper boy."
  • Call-Back: Mordecai comes prepared to the date with a ton of breath mints to avoid the events of Bad Kiss.
  • Crazy-Prepared:
  • Cruel Twist Ending: Played for Laughs and Downplayed. Although Mordecai lost the bet and is forced to wear a diaper for a week, he is elated that Margaret had fun on her date which means he still has a chance with her.
  • Disapproving Look: Rigby, Muscle Man, and Starla give Mordecai one after his awkward hug with Margaret in the beginning.
  • Innocently Insensitive: When Mordecai wants to see a romantic movie (in hopes to get Margaret to kiss him), she replies, “Boring!”
  • Never My Fault: Muscle Man snarks at Mordecai for revealing the bet to Margaret about kissing her, even though HE was the one who brought it up in the first place.
  • Pyrrhic Victory: On Muscle Man's end. Though he ultimately won the bet, he doesn't enjoy the outcome since Mordecai is too busy relishing in the fact that Margaret enjoyed her date with him to be annoyed or embarrassed at wearing a diaper all week.
  • Rhetorical Question Blunder: When Margaret angrily asks Mordecai if he bet that he could kiss her, Rigby points out that it was more if he WOULD kiss her, not COULD.
  • Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: When Mordecai is about to buy a tuxedo and for his date, and he then realizes how expensive it is, he immediately changes his mind and runs out of the store.
