Myth.Norse Mythology is not a trope.


* NorseMythology: This was apparently the subject of the opera Mrs. Beakley was starring in. Whether based on this or simply her appearance, the Viking king keeps calling Mrs. Beakley Brunhilde. Also the island where the Vikings live is actually named Valhalla.

* PoisonedChaliceSwitcheroo: Inadvertently invoked, but also downplayed. Queen Griselda, [[GreenEyedMonster jealous of Mrs. Beakley]] [[LoveTriangle for her husband's]] [[VillainousCrush infatuation]] that [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty led to kidnapping her]], decides to [[MurderTheHypotenuse remove her from the picture]] by removing the thing that drew her husband in: her voice. After putting a potion in a glass of water and trying to figure out how to get Mrs. Beakley to drink it, the duck in question shows up--except she wanted it for Launchpad, who had gotten extremely nervous and thirsty over the upcoming race. End result, he loses his voice and, since the voice is required to make the sled team go, Mrs. Beakley has to go instead in disguise as a man. [[NiceJobFixingItVillain This ends up being critical as it's her voice that lets her win]] (see GlassShatteringSound above).

* ThoroughlyMistakenIdentity: Mrs. Beakley would like it very much to be known that she is ''not'' Brunhilde! (Although she's not above using the king's confusion to get preferential treatment, or learn of rules and laws she can use to help her and the others escape.)

Added DiffLines:

* {{Leitmotif}}: Wagner's ''Music/RideOfTheValkyries'' (with wordless lyrics) is what Mrs. Beakley is singing when the Vikings appear, of course. Its instrumental version is then used for much of the soundtrack of the episode.
