* ExplosiveOverclocking: Turns out that mixing laugh and scream energy together causes a massive surge of energy that would eventually cause the canister to explode. Meanwhile, the energy leakage from the intense pressure overloads everything around it. The model of Monstropolis that it's plugged into ''catches fire,'' and Tylor attempting to rush the volatile canister to the exit ends up blowing fuses in all the alternative energy booths.

* BigLittleMan: A kaiju-sized monster appears to be attacking a city, even [[ThisBillboardNeedsSomeSalt eating a pizza shop sign]]. It turns out to be a small monster playing around on Duncan's model, which Duncan is not happy about.

** Cutter intends to take as much swag from the convention as possible, putting it all in a giant bag (including a mini monster that was mashing around Duncan's model). She leaves the con with the bag stuffed to the brim, and pulls out the mini monsters (who promptly flirts with her).

* OnlyAModel: Duncan brought a scale model of Monstropolis as part of M.I.'s presentation. It was made by him and his mother (mostly her; she let him hold the glue) and he's extremely proud of it, calling it "Mom-stropolis". He warns everybody not to touch it, so naturally, it gets thrashed by the end of the episode.

* SignsOfDisrepair: Because of the small area for their booth, the M.I. banner that is supposed to read "It's Laughter We're After" instead reads "It's Later."

Monsters, Inc. heads to C.R.E.E.P., the largest corporate monster energy convention around. But as the company gets settled in, they find that they aren't getting the most welcome reception. Meanwhile, Tylor's confidence has been shattered in the wake of the blunder he made at MU's homecoming, and the day doesn't seem to be going right for him.
!This episode contains the following tropes:
* BittersweetEnding: Definitely more sweet than bitter, as Tylor damaged a scare simulator and a public toilet (to say nothing of causing the other alternative energy source booths to overload and got Duncan's model burnt to a crisp), but he was able to prevent a larger disaster and even impressed Johnny enough to get his business card. Fritz made a nice fortune, and Cutter got some nice swag (and a possible date). Above all, Monsters, Inc. did come out on top at the end of the day, as more people seem onboard with laugh power.

** Cutter intends to take as much swag from the convention as possible, putting it all in a giant bag (including a mini monster that was mashing around Duncan's model). She leaves the con with the bag stuffed to the brim, and pulls out the mini monsters (who promptly flirts with her).
* TheBusCameBack: Chet Alexander, Johnny's right-hand-monster, returns acting as his personal assistant.
* LegacyCharacter: Johnny Worthington III is the heir to Fear Co., Monsters, Inc's largest rival, with his father having founded the company.
* NoodleIncident: Needleman and Smitty had dealt with one canister that got scream and laugh energy mixed up, but the two left wondering if they were responsible.
* NoRespectGuy: {{Exaggerated}}. Monsters, Inc. is largely unwelcome at C.R.E.E.P. due to nearly every monster there thinking laugh energy is a whacky idea, and not only stuff them in the smallest booth possible (which leaves them no room for their banner), but said booth is ''right next to the restroom''. To make matters worse, nearly all the monsters on the floor think that M.I. has betrayed the monster principals by refusing to scare kids, and most of them spend their time mocking the decision (with the surprising exception of Johnny). Luckily, people seem to come around to the idea after the presentation.
* PersonaNonGrata: Because of the company's switch to laugh power, Monsters, Inc. is no longer allowed in the scaring section of the con. {{Downplayed}}, since they ''do'' get a booth, but it's a very small one stuffed with all the other crazy power alternatives.
* ReadingsBlewUpTheScale: Tylor eventually hits his RageBreakingPoint and marches into the Fear Co. scare simulator, letting out a loud roar that clears past the limit and breaks the glass on it in the process.
* SeriousBusiness: Fritz takes to his new "role" as the bathroom attendant so seriously, he refuses to let Tylor leave without a tip.
* StageFright: Sulley is horrifically nervous about public speaking, and is extremely tense reading from cue cards. He loosens up when he decides to just have a normal conversation.
* SureLetsGoWithThat: Fritz tries passing on some M.I. merch to customers outside the bathroom, but one of them assumes he's the restroom attendant and tips him for a mint. He spends all day making a small fortune off the convention.
* ToiletHumor:
** One of the booths seen is to generate power using farts.
** M.I.'s booth is stuffed just outside the public restroom.
** When Tylor tries to get the scream/laugh canister mix into a place to empty it, he runs into the bathroom and damages one of the stalls. The monster using the sink and the janitor assume his uh, "business" was the culprit, and are promptly scared out of their wits when he exits the stall.
