Added DiffLines:

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: "[[Film/TheCrawlingEye This movie]] looks kinda familiar, doesn't it?" isn't just a bit of deja vu on Crow's part; it's an acknowledgement that a ''[[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness completely different crew]]'' watched this before[[note]]Joel, a Trace Beaulieu-voiced Crow, and a Josh Weinstein-voiced Tom[[/note]].

** Upon seeing the Battersea Power Station, Mike wonders "[[Music/PinkFloyd Shouldn't a pig be flying over that?]]" Servo chuckles in response, "[[Music/{{Animals}} Ha, ha, charade you are!]]" This is a CallBack to their use of the same riff in ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S09E01TheProjectedMan The Projected Man]]''.

Added DiffLines:

* DramaPreservingHandicap: Observer loses his powers for the episode because Pearl pranked him by pouring Mountain Dew on his brain. This means he can't stop the Satellite of Love from returning to Earth after Pearl accidentally starts the landing procedure.

Added DiffLines:

* AmbiguousCloneEnding: Servo attempts to deal with all his clones by using a self-destruct mechanism built into them. Several clones ended up blowing themselves up when they activate it thinking they're the original Servo, leaving it a bit vague if the remaining Servo is the original or not. Of course, that implies that Servo installed a self-destruct mechanism in himself for some reason...


Added DiffLines:

* ContrivedCoincidence: The reason Observer didn't restore the satellite's orbit was because Pearl had poured soda on his brain that morning, weakening him just enough to keep him from restoring the status quo.


Added DiffLines:

* TheWorldIsJustAwesome: The point of Mike's song "To Earth". It convinces Crow, but ends up changing Servo's mind.

* HourglassPlot: The "To Earth" sketch starts with Crow having "wedged himself under the desk" from fear of Earth being a CrapsackWorld. The others sing a song to calm him down, but as he expresses his fears in more detail, Crow describing his fears manage to pique the same fears in Servo. By the end, Crow feels better about going to Earth, while ''Servo'' is now the one wedged under the desk.

* FridgeLogic: Deliberately built into a joke.[[invoked]]At the end of the episode when Servo describes their apartment, he says it has "one half-bath"; the issue is that a half-bath contains ''only'' a sink and a toilet, meaning there's no way for Mike to bathe. Presumably this was [[PlayedForLaughs wholly intentional]].
