Line #18 Recap/BigCityGreensS3E15


1	'''Pizza Deliverance'''
2
3	A pizza delivery girl is asked to make a delivery to the Greens' country house, but after seeing a horror movie, she begins hallucinating the Greens as slashers out to eat her.
4
5	!! "Pizza Deliverance" contains examples of:
6	* BerserkButton: Don't ever suggest gas station food when the Greens are around, they will start grumbling angrily, well, except for Nancy.
7	* CellPhonesAreUseless: The reason Tina gets lost on her way to the Green's house is because her GPS tracker had no reception.
8	* ColorWash: Tina's hallucinations of the Greens as monsters are tinted with a SicklyGreenGlow to represent how fearful the situation is.
9	* ContinuityNod: The pizza is being delivered from Mama-Roni's, the brand Cricket idolized in "Little Buddy".
10	* ADayInTheLimelight: For Tina the pizza delivery girl.
11	* DroolDeluge: Cricket is so hungry he drools all over the floor. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Tina slips on the drool and the pizza falls on her, causing the hungry Greens to descend on her for real.]]
12	* ExorcistHead: Cricket tries to move his head all the way around, but only goes so far before he hurts himself.
13	* HillbillyHorrors: Tina was watching a horror movie about hillbilly cannibals, ''The Country Cannibal Catastrophe'', when she is sent to deliver the Green's pizza. When she sees the Greens in the darkness, she assumes they're cannibals like the ones in the movie.
14	* HockeyMaskAndChainsaw: Tina is scared by Nancy, who was chopping up a fallen tree with a chainsaw and wearing a mask for protection.
15	* InnerThoughtsOutsiderPuzzlement: From Tina's view she sees the Greens as marauding monsters; from our perspective they are mildly confused at her running away without even giving them their pizza.
16	* JumpScare: The cannibal baby from the movie suddenly lunges at the camera at the end.
17	* LostInTheMaize: Tina crashes her car in the Green's cornfield, then tries to get away from them when she thinks they're cannibals.
18	* OutOfFocus: The Greens don't get as much focus as Tina.
19	* ShoutOut:
20	** The title is a reference to ''{{Film/Deliverance}}''.
21	** Tilly's "Oak-log-homa" wicker people are a nod to ''Film/TheBlairWitchProject''.
22	** Tina escaping from the Greens in the back of a pick-up truck while laughing like a maniac is how Sally escaped Leatherface at the end of ''Film/TheTexasChainsawMassacre''.
23	* SkewedPriorities: After Tina crashed into a corn field, Cricket was more concerned about the pizza, the others weren't happy to hear those words.
24	* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Nancy when the pizza falls on Tina and the other Greens are too hungry to think straight.
25	-->'''Nancy:''' Oh, this can't be good.
26	* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: After seeing the horror movie and upon first seeing the Greens, everything in Tina's eyes becomes an actual horror flick with green tinting, movie filters, and the Greens appearing as ravaging man-eating zombies. In reality, the Greens are just normal and friendly people waiting for their pizza, and her fear made them look more scarier than how they really look like.
27	* VoiceOfTheLegion: The Greens and Remy's voices take on reverberating undertones during Tina's hallucinations.
28	----
29	'''Horse Girl'''
30
31	Tilly must keep her hatred of horses a secret after Bill rents one for the farm and considers keeping her. Meanwhile, Cricket tries in vain to find a single wi-fi signal somewhere in the country.
32
33	!! "Horse Girl" contains examples of:
34	* BrickJoke: At the beginning, Gramma is trying to load a video of a pie being squashed when Cricket can't use the wifi at home. After he finds a connection and has his conversation with Gabriella, Cricket then decides to watch the pie video.
35	* CallBack: Upon first encountering Butterscotch, Tilly brings up the fact she fought a horse before as part of her rite of passage.
36	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Cricket goes to Patti's Diner hoping it has wifi, but Patti doesn't because she prefers that customers engage with each other instead of burying themselves on their phones. She shows Cricket a sign that reads "No Wi-fi; Yes, Try Pie." Cricket somehow interprets this as sticking his tablet in a pie to get better reception.
37	* EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes: Tilly, a FriendToAllLivingThings, has an irrational dislike of horses.
38	* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: A familial example. While Tilly once again admits to her father that she just doesn’t like horses or Butterscotch as much as he does, she also acknowledges that it’s okay that she and her father don’t like the same things and is willing to let him keep Butterscotch because she knows the horse and Bill genuinely make each other happy. Though she does throw in the condition that he builds her stable as far away from her room as possible.
39	* JerkassToOne: While Tilly is a self-proclaimed “friend to all critters”, she admits that horses like Butterscotch are the one member of the animal world she has never been able to “vibe with”.
40	* LongDistanceRelationship: Despite initial fan fears when the move was first announced, this episode reveals that Cricket and Gabriella are engaging in one of these rather than having broken up.
41	* RoadApples: Implied during the "Tilly, A Filly, and Me" song.
42	-->'''Bill:''' ''Such a special creature, I can't peel my eyes from you...''\
43	'''Tilly:''' ''I've tried but it's not workin'. Did I just step in...? [The background turns brown] Ew!''
44	* ReflectiveEyes: When Tilly tells Butterscotch they must pretend to be friends for Bill's sake, her face reflects into the horse's eyes.
45	* RightBehindMe: When Bill has decided to keep Butterscotch and Tilly ignites yet another argument, it culminates with her announcing she hates horses. Bill happened to be right behind her when she said that, and is shocked to hear such a thing.
46	* RivalsTeamUp: Tilly was forced to put her hatred of horses on hold and team up with Butterscotch to save Bill from being pulled away in the river.
47	* ShaggyDogStory: [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]]. After all Cricket goes through to find a wifi connection for her conference call with Gabriella, all they do is just say "Hi" to each other, then hang up. He still considers it a very romantic conversation.
48	* SitcomArchNemesis: Tilly is obviously a very nice girl usually, and Butterscotch at least seems nice on her own and genuinely cares about her friendship with Bill as he does, but the two of them can equally barely restrain themselves from coming to blows whenever Bill is out of eyesight.
49	* SlowLoadingInternetImage: The reason Cricket can't use his home wifi is because Remy and Gramma are hogging all the bandwidth. Remy is trying to have a video call with Vasquez, who appears frozen on his laptop screen; while Gramma can't watch a video of a pie being smashed, the video frozen just before the moment of impact.
50	* SpringtimeForHitler: While with Butterscotch on a picnic, Tilly attempts to get Bill to change his mind about keeping Butterscotch by using horseshoes to ruin the picnic and put the blame on Butterscotch. However, Bill interprets the scenario as Butterscotch not wanting the day to end and announces his decision to permanently keep her, to Tilly's anger and shock.
51	* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Invoked by Tilly. Compared to the [[Recap/BigCityGreensS1E24 last]] [[Recap/BigCityGreensS3E13 two]] times a member of the Green family had to hide their distaste of something, she actually tries to tell Bill right at the start that she doesn’t like horses the way he does. The only reason she backtracks is because of how upset it makes Bill over having failed at bonding with his daughter over an assumed common interest.
52	* ToiletHumor: During this episode's song, Tilly accidentally steps in what is strongly implied to be Butterscotch's poop.
