11!Songs:
12
13!!"I Gave You a UTI" (sung by Santino Fontana)
14[[youtube:W_pi8yBaooQ]]
15* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Rebecca starts out bemused and annoyed, but towards the end of the song she starts cracking up at how over-the-top ridiculous Greg is being.
16* AffectionateParody: Of 60s R&B and soul revues, such as the music of Music/JamesBrown (especially alluded to when Rebecca drapes Greg's jacket over him at the end.)
17* BiggerIsBetterInBed: This is what Greg believes, since part of the reason Rebecca has a UTI is due to his... capaciousness.
18* IAmGreatSong: It's all about how [[SexGod great Greg is at sex]], because he gave Rebecca a UTI. Even though Rebecca herself explains that getting a UTI isn't about the "quality" of the sex, Greg says, "Don't ruin this for me."
19* IntercourseWithYou:
20-->''My sweet love injection\
21 Caused a urinary tract infection!''
22* PainfulRhyme: "I'm so good at sex / Your maidenship got wrecked." Of course, this is done completely on purpose.
23* UnusualEuphemism: "Maidenship." Rebecca even mouths the word after Greg sings it, as if in disbelief.
24* UrineTrouble: Literally, as the UTI causes a burning sensation when peeing.
25
26!!"Angry Mad" (sung by Vincent Rodriguez III)
27[[youtube:GZJrP8qeFhc]]
28* AffectionateParody: Of both ''Film/{{Flashdance}}'' and ''Film/TheKarateKid''.
29* AngryDance: Since it's a blatant ShoutOut to the famous AngryDance in ''Flashdance''. Josh is trying to work out his feelings with Martial Arts but it's basically a dance with kicking.
30* MartialArtsHeadband: But with the ''Korean'' flag, since Josh is doing taekwondo.
31* ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: Literally.
32
33!!"Oh My God I Think I Like You" (sung by Rachel Bloom)
34[[youtube:eeb0pFdwTBg]]
35* AffectionateParody: In its narrative intricacy, light tone and fundamental vulnerability, of certain kinds of intelligent 70s European pop, in particular Music/{{ABBA}}; parody because most of the song is about the details of all the casual banging going on, which would have been largely absent from the original target.
36* CasualKink:
37-->''It's scary but you send me back on my heels\
38 'Cause while I'm getting spanked\
39 I can't ignore the feels.''
40* HandOrObjectUnderwear: Rebecca is sitting on a sofa naked apart from a sofa cushion clutched to herself.
41* TheModestOrgasm: One of Rebecca's BigOMG implies she's having an orgasm as she's singing it.
42* ModestyBedsheet: Greg is shown sleeping post-coital in bed with a sheet covering him while Rebecca is standing next to him singing, also with a bedsheet wrapped around her.
43* SexEqualsLove: The song is about Rebecca realizing her FriendsWithBenefits relationship with Greg is slowly turning into her falling in love with him.
44* ShouldersUpNudity: During the ShowerScene, Rebecca's only seen from the shoulders up.
45* SingingInTheShower ShowerScene: Rebecca also [[SingingInTheShower sings when she's in the shower]] after having sex.
46* SillyLoveSongs Combined with IntercourseWithYou
47* WallBangHer: Against the refrigerator.

49!Tropes in this episode:
50* BrutalHonesty: When Josh admits his emotional crisis to Father Brah, he gets a harsh but real assessment of his real problem: he enjoyed being the subject of Rebecca's adoration, without having to choose between her and Valencia. Now that Rebecca found someone else, he's jealous, even though he was never willing to commit to her.
51-->'''Father Brah:''' Can I be real, man? You're being a little bitch right now.
52* GilliganCut: Used when Rebecca tells Paula she isn't having sex. SmashCut to her having sex with Greg.
53* SexyDiscretionShot: When Rebecca and Greg have sex at the start of the episode, we see them start to make out, only to cut to them PostCoitalCollapse, both panting and covered by a ModestyBedsheet.
54* UnusualEuphemism: Paula and Rebecca refer to sex as "getting your butterfly smashed". Later when Greg learns about it, he gives her a few more: "I will crumble your zebra", "I will sauté your giraffe" and "I will flambé your cockatoo".
