Amy's doctor told her to stay home from work, but because Cloud Nine's corporate office won't allow it, she's forced to work throughout the remainder of her pregnancy. When Glenn and Dina announce a store costume contest with the prize of one paid day off, Amy and Mateo get overly competitive, and attempt to convince Cheyenne, who's wearing a hula girl costume with a coconut bra, that her costume is offensive. When that doesn't work, they convince Sandra (who is Hawaiian) to call Cheyenne out on it. However, after Sandra starts having second thoughts about her complaint and mentions other employees being OK with costumes that could be considered cultural appropriation, they start going through the store and convincing every employee that another employee's costume would be offensive to them. However, Mateo takes it too far by making a complaint against Amy's mario costume as being offensive to Italians. When trying to defend herself, Amy starts a discussion on cultural appropriation that leads to the costume contest also being used to "honor" the culture surrounding a costume. When the contest ends, Amy is declared the winner. Later, Jonah, who tallied the votes, reveals to her that Cheyenne won, but he changed the results so that Amy won.

"Costume Competition" is the fourth episode of ''{{Series/Superstore}}'''s fourth season.
Amy's doctor told her to stay home from work, but because Cloud Nine's corporate office won't allow it, she's forced to work throughout the remainder of her pregnancy. When Glenn and Dina announce a store costume contest with the prize of one paid day off, Amy and Mateo get overly competitive, and attempt to convince Cheyenne, who's wearing a hula girl costume with a coconut bra, that her costume is offensive. When that doesn't work, they convince Sandra (who is Hawaiian) to call Cheyenne out on it. However, after Sandra starts having second thoughts about her complaint and mentions other employees being OK with costumes that could be considered cultural appropriation, they start going through the store and convincing every employee that another employee's costume would be offensive to them. However, Mateo takes it too far by making a complaint against Amy's mario costume as being offensive to Italians. When trying to defend herself, Amy starts a discussion on cultural appropriation that leads to the costume contest also being used to "honor" the culture surrounding a costume. When the contest ends, Amy is declared the winner. Later, Jonah, who tallied the votes, reveals to her that Cheyenne won, but he changed the results so that Amy won.
Meanwhile, Jonah accidentally makes Garrett realize that the same song is playing over and over again on the loudspeakers, and is driven crazy trying to stop the music. At first he calls corporate, which controls the playlist, but when they don't offer any help, he attempts to cover up the speakers with thick sweaters. And when that doesn't work, he keeps the store's announcement system going for the rest of the day, because the music won't play as long as it's on.
In addition, the store gets a new wireless electric cart collector, that uses a key fob to operate. When Glenn confiscates the key fob from employees who are playing around with it, he puts it in is bag, causing the cart collector to follow him around for the rest of the day. After trying all day to avoid it, he eventually attempts to flee from it in his car (which it follows).

* BareYourMidriff: More like entire Torso, in Cheyenne's case.
* Jerkass: Mateo. He was more than willing to take down Amy, despite knowing that she needed the paid day off far more than he did.
* LandslideElection: Jonah states that it was a landslide... for Cheyenne. However, he changed the results.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: Amy and Mateo's effort to gaslight the entire staff into being offended by the other costumes; while they aren't wrong that some of it could be considered racist, they're clearly only doing it to eliminate the rest of the competition.
* VoteEarlyVoteOften: Jonah (who ironically, as he points out, is dressed up as a gerrymandered district), who counted the votes, rigged the costume contest for Amy so she could get a paid day off that she desperately needed due to her pregnancy.
