6
7	!! Tropes:
8
9	* BigDamnHeroes: Mrs. Knight, who was upset earlier over her son's decreasing reliance on her, sweeps in with Katie to help the boys fix the mansion before Gustavo and Kelly return.
10	* BlackComedy: Gustavo getting attacked by his own pet alligator.
11	* DidntThinkThisThrough: Gustavo never seemed to warn the Boys about his pet alligator and the moat it resides in.
12	* EmptyNest: Mrs. Knight starts to suffer this as Kendall keeps asserting he's a grown-up who can look after himself and Katie being a WiseBeyondTheirYears kid genius rarely asking for her help anymore. Most of the episode is averting this, with Katie PlayingSick and BTR making such a big mess at Gustavo's mansion they have to call on Katie and Mrs. Knight to clean up the mess.
13	* FoodAndAnimalAttraction: Mrs. Knight uses cat food to attract Monty back to the mansion.
14	* InevitablyBrokenRule: When the band is mansion-sitting for Gustavo, he gives them five rules to follow - Don't go in his media room, don't open his living room fridge, don't sit on his couch, don't touch his cat, and don't break anything. Cue the guys breaking every single rule — in order — and causing all kinds of mess.
15	* InsaneTrollLogic: When Kendall insists that Mrs. Knight stop treating him like a child and that he's 16, Logan asserts all the boys together are ''64'', which is older than her. Then, for some inexplicable reason, Logan feels the need to ask Mrs. Knight if 64 years is older than her.
16	* FauxHorrific: James once phoned the FBI because he had a bad hair day and ran out of hairspray.
17	* MenCantKeepHouse: The boys set off a DisasterDominoes in ruining Gustavo's mansion. They were ''very'' sloppy, destructive and disobedient of Gustavo's rules. Unsurprising, given they're teenagers.
18	* NoodleIncident: It is mentioned one of the boys used up all of James' hairspray for an unknown reason.
19	* OnlySaneMan: Logan tried to remind the boys what Gustavo's rules really were when they were mansion-sitting.
20	* OverTheShoulderCarry: Carlos has Logan over his shoulder when he passes out during all of the chaos at Gustavo's mansion and James and Kendall help carry ''him''.
21	* PlayingSick: Katie does this so Mrs. Knight could give her more attention than Kendall. It goes way too far.
22	* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Logan's best solution for the mess is for the band to flee the country and raise alpacas.
23	* SweetTooth: Gustavo's living room fridge is filled to the brim with cups of chocolate pudding.
24	* TemptingFate: Kendall scoffs at the idea that Gustavo couldn't trust them to watch the mansion, right before he spills a big glop of chocolate pudding on Gustavo's $40k couch (which they weren't supposed to be sitting on and while they were eating said pudding from a fridge they weren't supposed to open in the first place).
25	* VictoryIsBoring: Gustavo succeeded in finding the perfect band to replace BTR: the Windmills. However, they're very competent (exceeding his expectations for singing skills), polite, treat him with firm respect unlike BTR and possess lots of other pointless but impressive talents. He gets irritated by not being able to denigrate or yell at them, so he agrees to ditch them and keep BTR because [[WeWantOurJerkBack he didn't want his job as band manager to get dull and unchallenging]].
