3 | !!This episode contains examples of the following tropes: |
4 | * CarnivoreConfusion: After she turned her cat into a pig for messing up her time-travel spell, Circe threatens to "have pork chops for dinner" if he doesn't get out of her sight. |
5 | * ForcedTransformation: Predictably, a meeting with Circe ends with Scrooge transformed into a pig. |
6 | * FurryConfusion: Circe is a pig, who turns people into non-anthropomorphic pigs, and in a fit of LaserGuidedKarma is turned into a non-anthro pig herself. |
7 | * HistoricalInJoke: The entrance to Ithaquack, when Scrooge and the boys get to see it in the past, is straddled by a colossal statue. This is a reference to the Colossus of Rhodes, which in some histories was described in just this fashion in relation to the Rhodes harbor. |
8 | * MagicalBarefooter: The only time Circe wears shoes is when she's shapeshifted to resemble someone else. |
9 | * MindControlEyes: When the Sirens enthral Scrooge, his pupils turn gold. |
10 | * OurSirensAreDifferent: Where sirens are typically portrayed as some form of mermaid, the sirens depicted here are a singular monster with three heads on tentacles above a monstrous face with a mouth large enough that it almost ate Scrooge with one bite. |
11 | * RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Homer helps Scrooge and his nephews reclaim his kingdom of Ithaquack from Circe. |
12 | * ShoutOut: To ''Literature/TheOdyssey''. |
13 | * SlowNo: Parodied: Circe does one when the nephews throw away her medallion, then falls from midair when the slow motion stops. |
14 | * TimeTravel |
