Go To

"Scooter Race": Motu and Patlu steal Dr. Jhatka's scooter so that they can run in a scooter race.


"Scooter Race" contains the following tropes:

  • The Big Race: The episode is about Motu and Patlu attending a scooter race, to be precise.
  • By the Lights of Their Eyes: Dr. Jhatka turns off the lights in his workshop, leaving Motu and Patlu's eyes as the only visible objects.
  • Inflating Body Gag: Dr. Jhatka accidentally inserts the pump for his scooter tires into Motu's mouth, causing Motu's body to inflate to the point that he floats in the air.

"Angry Clouds": Motu is chased down by the Rain God after insulting him.


"Angry Clouds" contains the following tropes:

  • All Just a Dream: At the end of the episode, Motu's entire run-in with the Rain God is revealed to be a nightmare he was having.
  • Cumulonemesis: The Rain God is an anthropomorphic cloud who comes after Motu for insulting him.
  • Disguised in Drag: Patlu dresses up Motu as a woman in an attempt to keep the Rain God from recognizing him.
  • Distracted by the Sexy: Several townspeople notice and get distracted by Motu while he is Disguised in Drag.
  • Never Trust a Title: The title "Angry Clouds" could be seen as potentially misleading, as the word "Clouds" being plural implies that there's more than one angry cloud when in the actual episode there's only one angry cloud chasing Motu.
  • Water Wake Up: The episode is revealed to be all just a nightmare Motu was having. Patlu wakes up Motu from the nightmare by splashing water on him.
  • You Look Like You've Seen a Ghost: When Motu crashes into a building while riding a bike and trying to escape from the Rain God, Chaiwala asks why he's so scared and wonders if he saw a ghost.
