History Recap / CommunityS3E15OriginsOfVampireMythology

* Running Gag: "Dean, why are you ''here''?" "Okay, ''ouch''!"

* MrFanservice: Alright, be honest now; hands up how many of you ladies (and [[EvenTheGuysWantHim gentlemen]]) enjoyed the scene where Jeff changes his shirt?
** That sequence was so blatant that it verges into LampshadeHanging.

* NoodleImplements: Troy's text message inverts this; we see Troy send (and delete) it, we see the other characters' reactions to it, but we never find out precisely what it was he said.

* NoMatterHowMuchIBeg: When Britta tells Annie not to give her phone back.

* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Pierce and Chang both suggest things to do at the carnival at the same time. Pierce suggest cotton candy. Chang suggest {{Russian roulette}}.

* InformedFlaw: Blade is apparently a humongous douche-bag if you're in a relationship with him, but in what little we see of him at the carnival he comes off as quite affable, laid-back and pleasant. This is lampshaded by Shirley, who points out that his laid-back attitude and ability to let things slide without getting riled about them is probably what attracts people to him in the first place. [[spoiler: Also played with when we learn that he's brain damaged and has no ability to feel shame or remorse, which likely causes both his engagingly laid-back surface demeanor and the {{Jerkass}} behaviour that lies beneath it.]]

** Parodied with Annie, who clearly experiences this to a lesser degree than Britta (even if, given her [[ShipTease obvious interest in Jeff]], she's not entirely free from it) -- she just cannot figure out that the meaner the texts from 'Blade' get, the more turned on by them Britta is.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: The reason why Britta wants Blade is explored throughout the episode. Ultimately, it's revealed that [[spoiler:Blade has brain damage that means he can never feel shame - so he ''literally'' doesn't care about anyone other than himself]].

* StandUpComedy: In TheTag Abed does this in the study room dressed like Jerry Seinfeld in front of a fake brick wall to Jeff, Troy and Dean Pelton His jokes are specific only about his and Troy's living habits and their apartment so only Troy laughs.

* StandUpComedy: In TheTag Abed does this in the study room dressed like Jerry Seinfeld in front of a fake brick wall. However he just does jokes involving his and Troy's living habits so only Troy laughs while Jeff and the Dean don't get them.

* StandUpComedy: In TheTag Abed does this in the study room dressed in 80s clothes in front of a fake brick wall. However he just does jokes involving his and Troy's living habits so only Troy laughs.

* ShipSinking: Jeff/Britta would seem to have received another nail in the coffin, with Jeff upon being confronted explicitly denying that he's attracted to Britta and jealous of Blade because of her continued attraction to him. He is, in fact, jealous of Blade's ability to somehow make people not give a crap about the fact that he's a self-centred douchebag.

* GirlsLovedStuffedAnimals: Jeff wins a bunch of stuffed animals and gives them to Shirley. {{Subverted}}, however, in that Shirley just wants to move on from the duck shooting booth, but Jeff won't give up until he knows Blade's secret.
