2	Something's wrong with Thomas. He's behaving like an aloof carefree fool with no common sense at all. When the Sides appear on him, they also discover something worse, he has lost his fear of death and his survival instinct. Patton soon points out that Anxiety is missing and they reach the conclusion that Anxiety is gone and that's why Thomas is behaving like that. Reluctantly, Roman points out that hey may be in his "room", the corner of Thomas' mind where he resides when he's not with the Sides. So, they all, Thomas included, decide to sink down into Thomas' mind to get to Anxiety's room and find out what happened to him.

10
11	* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: Thomas mentions he wants to talk about food, then about the show he was watching, then decides to just watch a show while eating some food.
12	* CallBack: Patton reminds Logan once again of his "infinitesimal" amount of mistakes. Logan is not amused of remembering again his bad use of the word in ''[[Recap/SandersSidesS1E9LosingMyMotivation Losing my Motivation]]''.
13	-->'''Logan''': You make ONE MISTAKE, and THIS is what happens!
14	* {{Cliffhanger}}: Just when things get interesting and Thomas shows the first glimpse of Anxiety's room... "[[ToBeContinued To be continued, guys gals and non binary pals]]".
15	* FullyClothedNudity: When under the effects of Anxiety being gone, Thomas takes his pants off and happily waves them in his hand, making Roman and the others react with shock and covering their eyes, and Patton scolding him to put them back "right now". This brief moment of "nudity" is off-screen all the time, though.
16	* JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind: Thomas and the Sides literally do it when they travel to Anxiety's room at the end of the episode.
17	* LampshadeHanging: Thomas does this repeatedly. He lampshades many tropes and structures that are used in the Sanders Sides episodes, including Logan providing all the expository information due to being the OnlySaneMan and that when the Sides first appear in a video, they're referred to by their nicknames to quickly establish what they generally represent so new viewers don't get confused.
18	* MediumAwareness: When Thomas jumps to the kitchen to get some food, Roman reminds him that they're "trying to do a video here".
19	* MrExposition: Thomas [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this is what Logan usually does in his videos because the other characters are "too zany or relatable".
20	* RunningGag: Once again, Patton asks if he's having trouble with "adultery". This time, though, Thomas just lampshades that he keeps using that word instead of "adulthood", and is about to explain him the actual meaning of the word when Roman stops him quoting ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'':
21	-->'''Roman''': [[{{Shoutout}} Wait, Pumba,]] [[NotInFrontOfTheKid not in front of the kids!]]
22	* SpeakInUnison: Both Thomas and Patton say at the same time that they doubt anyone would want go look into Thomas' car.
23	* ToBeContinued: That's how the episode ends, with Roman and Logan worrying about when the second part will be released, [[ScheduleSlip not trusting he'll do it in two days as written in his schedule]]. Used InUniverse.
24	* WhamEpisode: The existence of the Sides' rooms is revealed and we get the first glimpse of Anxiety's room.
