Now loading tropes:

• Actually Pretty Funny: When Numbuh 2 reveals he was joking about becoming the next Cheese Shogun, the defeated Shogun, who is barely conscious, chuckles and admits it was pretty good.
• Bait-and-Switch: At first, it seems Numbuh 2 has not only defeated the Cheese Shogun, but has gone mad with power. When it seems he's about to attack Numbuh 4, Numbuh 2 begins to stifle a chuckle and bursts out laughing, revealing he was only joking.
• Book Ends: In the beginning, Numbuh 2 convincingly tells Numbuh 4 he gave his place in line away to someone else, before he bursts out laughing saying "Did you honestly think I gave your place in line to someone else?" At climax, when it seems Numbuh 2 has gone mad with power, he then bursts out laughing saying "Did you honestly think I became the shogun?"
• Forgot to Mind Their Head: How the Cheese Shogun was really defeated.
• Highly-Visible Ninja: Comes with the territory when you're colored bright yellow.
• Offscreen Moment of Awesome: As Numbuh 4 asked how Numbuh 2 defeated the Cheese Shogun, the latter goes off on how the fight between them was epic and how he was actually mopping the floor with him. Then Numbuh 4 correctly deduced what REALLY happened as a Subverted Trope in how the Cheese Shogun was really defeated.
  Numbuh 4: He hit his head on the ceiling when he jumped in the air, didn't he?
• Rollercoaster Mine: Numbuhs 2 and 4 finds themselves stuck on one while escaping the cheese ninjas.
