2----
3* AdmiringTheAbomination: Casey, [[RunningGag as usual]] provides some of this, declaring Armaggon his "favorite bad guy ever."
4* TheChainsOfCommanding: Leo is painfully aware that as leader of the team, the fate of Earth rests most heavily on his shoulders and the decisions he'll make from here on out.
5* CombatTentacles: Cthugha and Hiidrala both have them.
6* FishPeople: The Daagon greatly resemble [[Literature/TheShadowOverInnsmouth Deep Ones]].
7%%* LargeAndInCharge: Hiidrala
8* MythologyGag: Electric Seaweed has also shown up in the [[VideoGame/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1989 first NES Video Game]]
9** While speculating on what Cthugha will look like, Mikey imagines that he'll most likely look like Ray Fillet.
10* ProudWarriorRace: The Daagon.
11* ReplacementGoldfish: Leo confides with a holographic simulation of Splinter for wisdom in place of the real Splinter, which the other guys think is unhealthy.
12* RunningGag: Raph gets nauseous in space. [[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012S3E2526AnnihilationEarth Yet]] [[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012S4E1BeyondTheKnownUniverse again]].
13* SceneryPorn
14* ShoutOut: Creator/DavidTennant (a Series/DoctorWho alumn) quoting Franchise/StarTrek gives a lot of people {{Nerdgasm}}s.
15** The Daagon home city looks a lot like [[Film/StarWarsEpisodeIThePhantomMenace Otoh Gunga]].
16** The Daagon and Cthugha in particular are shout outs to Creator/HPLovecraft's Franchise/CthulhuMythos (although the Cthugha is InNameOnly).
17* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: The Daagon wear skulls as arm-guards.
18* SpaceIsAnOcean: Literally.
19* SummonBiggerFish: Cthugha, nuff said
20* TakingTheBullet: Leo takes a missile blast for Hiidrala, not only saving her but proving him self worthy to take the black hole generator.
21* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: The Cthugha spits up Armaggon and Lord Dregg and retreats after his Vreen minions come rescue him.
22* UnscaledMerfolk: In contrast to [[FishPeople the rest of the Daagon]], Hiidrala resembles an octopodian mermaid.
23* UnusualEuphemism: Fugitoid, parodying the SoundEffectBleep.
