7!!Tropes
8* BaitAndSwitch: Andy clarifies with Erin that Clark wants her to go to his apartment and let him film her wearing different outfits, and then swiftly goes to confront Clark at his desk... to ask him what kind of clothes Erin will need for a news audition.
9* ContinuityNod: Pam's past relationship with Roy is mentioned several times, especially by Jim who finds the idea of going to a wedding for his wife's ex-fiancee to be extremely weird.
10* GoneHorriblyRight: Clark's news audition scheme to seduce Erin works way too well. It also tricks Andy, who gets himself involved and ultimately screws up the plan by showing up to help Erin with the "audition".
11* HiddenDepths: Roy surprises his newly-wedded wife (as well as Jim and Pam) by revealing that he had secretly been taking piano lessons, and plays a romantic song for her.
12* ItsAllAboutMe: Andy ends up making Erin's news audition all about him and insists upon filming more takes focused on himself getting the part right (even though he's not the one supposedly auditioning). He even brushes aside Erin and tells Pete to take her out to dinner so he can keep working, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero which becomes the start to Erin and Pete getting to know each other better]].
13* NeverTrustATitle: Roy's wedding is only a small part of the episode, and largely unimportant by itself. The impression it makes on Jim and Pam and how they see their marriage is more important.
14* OnlySaneMan: Pete is the only one that sees through Clark's attempt to seduce Erin and fumbles that.
15* ShoutOut: Invoked. Andy asked Darryl to his office and wants him to close the door in a manner that resembles a similar scene from ''Film/TheGodfather''.
16** When Darryl sees Dwight trying to gather the courage to [[ItMakesSenseInContext chop off Nellie's arm]], he has them watch ''[[Film/OneHundredAndTwentySevenHours 127 Hours]]'' on his laptop for "inspiration".
17* ThoseTwoGuys: Defied. Although Clark and Pete are constantly lumped together, Pete has come to find Clark detestable and asserts to the camera crew that the two of them are not friends.
