Line #15 Recap/GreenEggsAndHam2019S1E2Car


1	Guy tries to return the suitcase containing the stolen chickeraffe to Sam and gets more than he bargained for.
2
3	!!"Car" contains examples of:
4	* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Invoked and lampshaded when the BAD GUYS catch Guy trying to return the briefcase containing the chickeraffe to Sam's Winnebago home.
5	-->'''Gluntz''': Why are you at this house, if it's not your house?\
6	'''Guy''': Well, technically, I think [[ComicallyMissingThePoint it's more of a vehicle]].\
7	'''[=McWinkle=]''': How would you know that if it's not ''your'' house?\
8	'''Gluntz''': Gotcha question! Woo-WOOP! (''elbows [=McWinkle=]'') You're killin' this, Winks!\
9	'''[=McWinkle=]''': [[DeadpanSnarker I'm aware.]]
10	* BigNo: Guy gives one to Sam when Sam won't take the hint to stop asking if they can meet up again in Meepville and just drive off already.
11	* BlatantLies
12	** Gluntz after hanging up on an unpleasant phone call.
13	-->'''Gluntz''': (''glumly to [=McWinkle=]'') "Well, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. (''{{beat}}. Suddenly happy'') The big man sends his love! He said he appreciates our efforts ''and'' believes in us forever. Also, he asked that I compliment you on your hat, specifically! (''bites her lip and beams up at him with PuppyDogEyes'')\
14	'''[=McWinkle=]''': "[[DeadpanSnarker Gluntz, that was so sugarcoated, I'm gettin' a cavity]]."
15	** While [[DrivesLikeCrazy driving like a maniac]], causing Guy to get tossed around in the passenger seat.
16	-->'''Sam''': "You are safe and sound right here in this car with me!"
17	* CreepyChangingPainting: Parodied. When Snerz is on the phone, he's standing next to an angelic portrait of himself. When his mood changes to anger, his YesMan turns a crank which changes it to a demonic portrait.
18	* DerangedAnimation: Guy's hallucination while succumbing to the desert heat.
19	* DrivesLikeCrazy
20	** Played straight with Sam. The times he keeps his hands on the wheel and eyes on the road are only ''slightly'' less dangerous than the times he doesn't. He ends up sending the car ''off a cliff'' at the end!
21	** Inverted with Michellee, who drives so slowly and carefully (with the blinkers on nonstop) that she travels mere inches a minute.
22	* {{Foreshadowing}}
23	** Sam has several {{vanity license plate}}s on the wall inside his trailer [[spoiler:to keep up with [[IGoByManyNames his many aliases]]]].
24	** The MatchCut between Sam shouting "Where's the Chickeraffe?!" in his trailer and Snerz on the phone asking the same question. [[spoiler:This is a heavy hint that he's talking to Sam]]. In this instance, the series tries to throw the viewers off by [[spoiler:showing Gluntz getting a phone call from her and [=McWinkle=]'s boss right after, suggesting that Snerz is talking to her]].
25	** The scene of Snerz blaring music through his phone cuts to an establishing shot of Donna's Diner, followed by Gluntz on the phone receiving a cacophonous call. Why doesn't it just cut from one end of the call to the other? [[spoiler:Because they're not the same phone call]].
26	** Sam's wildlife rescuer badge. See "FreezeFrameBonus."
27	** Sam claims that he has the chickeraffe's best interests in mind, unlike The BADGUYS who want to sell it to a collector. [[spoiler:The exact opposite is true]].
28	** When Guy tries to hitchhike with her, Michellee assumes that Guy is either a deranged lunatic, a felon or "a drifter hoping to make us pawns in his traitorous ruse." She spends the rest of the series repeatedly mistaking him for all of those things when all three really apply to [[spoiler:Sam]].
29	** Sam's face when Guy says his mother must be proud of him.
30	* FreezeFrameBonus: Sam's wildlife rescue badge is [[spoiler:just a picture of an eagle with the word "hero" under it, most likely a toy]].
31	* GoFetch: In an effort to get the chickeraffe to stop tearing up his motel room, Guy throws his rolled-up newspaper and tells it to fetch. Unfortunately, it doesn't understand the concept of the game and throws ''him'' instead.
32	* HollywoodMirage: After a few hours in the desert heat, Guy starts imagining himself surrounded by sentient green eggs and flying hams with SynchroVox mouths.
33	* IAlwaysWantedToSayThat: Gluntz says this word for word when a frightened Guy asks "Who are you people??" and she replies "We're The BADGUYS!"
34	* ImStandingRightHere: Guy doesn't appreciate Michellee assuming out loud that he's a deranged lunatic, drifter or felon and asks her to drive along if she plans on continuing.
35	* ItIsDehumanizing: Sam doesn't like Guy referring to the chickeraffe as "it" and prefers to call him "Guy Jr." but considers several more options.
36	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: When Guy refuses to eat the green eggs and ham Sam offers him in the car.
37	-->'''Guy''': "No. I will not eat them in a car."\
38	'''Sam''': "Okay, that is an oddly specific stance to take on the matter..."
39	* NoticingTheFourthWall: Guy knows he's succumbing to a heat stroke when he starts hearing the narrator. The narrator even says as much!
40	-->"''I'm your narrator, Guy\
41	This dude in your brain\
42	And if you can hear me\
43	(ManiacalLaugh)\
44	You're going...''\
45	'''INSAAAAAAANE!!!'''"
46	* PricelessMingVase: Guy's motel room has several, all of which the chickeraffe destroys when it tries to play with him. [[spoiler:It ends up costing him his several thousand "frequent lodger" points, which becomes an obstacle in "House"]]. Lampshaded by Guy when the chickeraffe starts breaking them all deliberately.
47	-->(''pinching his eyes'') "Why are there so many vases??"
48	* PuppyDogEyes
49	** Gluntz looks up at [=McWinkle=] with a pair of oh-so-innocent eyes after relaying a message from their boss, which [[BlatantLies she absolutely did not sugar coat]].
50	** Guy gives a plaintive "life's-not-fair" look when he sees the air conditioner in the car Sam is driving, after having spent some time out in the desert.
51	* SeverelySpecializedStore: Lem's Kites, Snorkels and Pole Vault Poles, where Sam got the kite, snorkel and pole vault pole he used to break into the zoo. Because Sam left all of his stuff at the scene of the crime, the BADGUYS are able to get his information from their records. Lampshaded by the "Plummeting out of business" sign in front and Gluntz sadly musing how "the kite, snorkel and pole vault pole bubble has finally burst."
52	* ShoutOut
53	** Snerz ends his rant over the phone with [[Film/TheWarriors "Can you dig it??"]]
54	** Sam taking the car off-road while Guy is asleep mirrors the scene in ''Film/PlanesTrainsAndAutomobiles'' where Del accidentally switches lanes while Neil takes a nap in the passenger seat.
55	* StandardSnippet: "Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairies" plays as Guy notices his frosty chocolate drink is frozen solid.
56	* SynchroVox: Used on flying hams during Guy's HollywoodMirage.
57	* ThroughAFaceFullOfFur: Guy blushes through his orange fur when he sees Michellee driving the car he wanted to hitchhike.
58	* TongueOnTheFlagpole: Guy's lip gets stuck to the icy chocolate drink Sam brings him in the desert.
59	* TheUnsmile: Sam gives one as he feigns interest in Guy's expressed interest in becoming a paint watcher.
60	-->'''Sam''': ''(facetiously)'' Very solid. Not giving up on your dream at all.
61	* VanityLicensePlate: Sam has several hanging on the wall inside his trailer, most of which read 3GGZ with one which reads KEW [=LL1=]. Michellee also has one that says [=NVR2SFE=] ("Never too safe").
62	* WatchOutForThatTree: Sam and the chickeraffe as they're running alongside the car, warning Guy about the cliff it's about to go over.
