4!!Tropes:
5* AlienGeometries: Parts of the Labyrinth look like an Escher painting.
6* AnimalSpeciesAccent: The Minotaur initially speaks with nothing but "moo" sounds. After revealing that he actually speaks English, he still adds "moo" into his sentences.
7* BerserkButton: José presses the Minotaur's one by calling his mother a cheeseburger.
8* BullSeeingRed: The Minotaur goes absolutely berserk when Donald and José wave a red flag at him.
9* GoodAllAlong: The Minotaur was working with Xandra to test the Caballeros and see if they could work as a team.
10* GoodAngelBadAngel: In the second episode, Donald gets two devils who are both in perfect agreement with each other. Of course, following their advice only gets him into bigger trouble.
11* HollywoodToneDeaf: Donald's singing voice when singing "Happy Birthday" is bad enough to repulse and anger Xandra into trying to attack him.
12* HulkingOut: The Minotaur initially looks skinny and wears a bathrobe, but turns into a muscular giant when José tells him that his mother's a cheeseburger.
13* MonsterFacade: After defeated by the Caballeros, the Minotaur talks with Xandra in a very chummy way, and they explain that they were just testing the Caballeros.
14* MythologyGag
15** The Atlas functions as a more elaborate take on the book from the film that Donald and José use to go to Bahia.
16** The Caballeros' first adventure in the Labyrinth of Crete ends with a bullfight against the Minotaur, much like the bullfight that ends the original film.
17** King Midas from ''WesternAnimation/TheGoldenTouch'' makes a cameo as a statue in his own tomb.
18* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The Caballeros' initial motivation to become heroes was to get treasure. They were perfectly willing to sell the book even after Xandra told them everything. After a fun adventure in the labyrinth, they decided against selling their destiny.
19* OurMinotaursAreDifferent: A Minotaur is featured in the episode. He's introduced as a skinny bull-man, but [[HulkingOut transforms into a larger, more muscular form]] when José accidentally insults him. He's also [[GoodAllAlong a rather friendly guy]] when not [[MonsterFacade putting on a scary act]].
20* PrimalChestPound: After HulkingOut, the Minotaur pounds his chest before starting to chase the Caballeros.
21* PunchClockVillain: The Minotaur literally uses a punch card after he finishes testing the Caballeros.
