Line #25 Recap/MonstersAtWorkS1E2MeetMift


1	An uneasy Tylor tries to shirk his new found teammates at MIFT. However, an emergency in the Laugh Floor may leave him as the team's last and only hope...
2	----
3	!!Tropes:
4	* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Millie, as shown in the ColdOpening.
5	* BlandNameProduct: 36[[superscript:1/2]] Hour Energy is presented as a stand in for the real life 5-Hour Energy, as are the half as powerful 18[[superscript:1/4]] Hour Energy and twice as powerful 73-Hour Energy (the latter two being mentioned only).
6	* BrickJoke: During Tylor's InitiationCeremony, he's asked to screw a nut into a bolt with a wrench, but he screws it up by screwing the nut ''off'' the bolt and it rolls into a grate. In the last scene before "Mike's Comedy Class", the same nut lands on Tylor's new desk.
7	* BunnyEarsLawyer: Tylor sees firsthand how much MIFT takes their job seriously when they try to help Mike out of a malfunctioning door.
8	* TheCameo: Rosie Levin, the leader of the Eta Hiss Hiss sorority from ''Monsters University'', appears during the scene of Mike giving his comedy class.
9	* ChekhovsSkill: During Tylor's initiation ceremony, he's asked to screw a nut into a bolt. The required skill becomes needed later when he and his fellow [=MIFTers=] help Mike out of a malfunctioning door.
10	* CreditsGag: The end of the credits has Val [[BreakingTheFourthWall congratulating the viewers for making it through the credits]]. The lines are at the bottom of this page.
11	* CreditsJukebox: The end credits use a slight variation of the Monsters, Inc. theme.
12	* DoorDumb: Tylor shouts at the MIFT team about how ridiculous they are, even as he pulls repeatedly at a door trying to get out of their office, before being told to push.
13	* {{Filler}}: The episode ends with a segment called "Mike's Comedy Class", with Mike singing a song about the dangers of comedy.
14	* InitiationCeremony: A humorous variation is held to Tylor's chagrin.
15	* MumLooksLikeASister: Fritz attempts to be cheeky by "mistaking" Tylor's mother for his sister.
16	* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Mike was able to fill dozens of laughing canisters all on his own, which is both impressive yet tiring for him.
17	* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: When he finds that Tylor left already without getting his soft drink that he was planning on giving him, Fritz says aloud, “Sigh, disappointed.”
18	* SecondPlaceIsForLosers: [[PlayedForLaughs A humorous variation]] since Mike has the top two spots as a jokester on the laugh floor. Mike, however, is disappointed and irritated when his worst performing workstation placed fourth while Lanky placed third.
19	* TheStinger: Val congratulates the viewer for staying through the credits and we get one last "[=MIFTer=]" from Fritz.
20	* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: The entire MIFT team tends to be rather exuberant to the point of clinginess about Tylor being a member of MIFT, particularly Fritz. It's implied when Banana Bread/Winchester got promoted to Jokester status and left MIFT at the end of the episode that this is because a lot of people have walked out on MIFT for bigger things and it breaks Fritz's heart to see any member of his makeshift family leave.
21	* {{Workaholic}}: Mike has been producing laugh energy non-stop for 18 hours. While it's understandable since there are constant power outages, it begins to take its toll on him.
22	----
23	->'''Val:''' ''[[BreakingTheFourthWall Woo-hoo! You watched all the credits.]] [[TheStinger That makes you a true MIFTer!]]''\
