Recap / The Angry Beavers E 2 Same Time Last Week

Go To

One morning, Dagget wakes up with his new calendar: 365 Ways And Days To Annoy Your Brother. Which he does, much to the ire of Norb. When Saturday finally arrives, Dag keeps bopping Norb, who threatens to bop him into last week. Dag persists, and really does get bopped into last week. He uses the time to do all the same annoying shenanigans as before...only to get sick of doing them.

Tropes used:

  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Exaggerated for this episode.
  • Exact Words: While not realize that his brother has become frantic because of the frequent time loops, Norbert promises not to bop Dagget into last week like he had done several times before. Dagg accidentally spoils the end of the movie and while he understands that he pissed off his brother, he warns him about the promise. Norb finds away around it, however, which Dagg discovers the next time he wakes up.
    Dagget: Hey, he didn't bopped my into last week. [...] HE BOPPED ME INTO THE DAWN OF TIME!
  • "Groundhog Day" Loop: Dagget gets stuck in a time loop thanks to Norbert literally knocking him into last week.
  • Not Hyperbole: Dagget gets stuck in a time loop after Norbert makes good on his threat to "bop [Dagget] into last week".
  • Screw Destiny: Once Dagget wises up to his situation, he starts actively trying to avert every prank he pulls during the week. Unfortunately...
  • Spiteful Spoiler: Lampshaded and done accidentally by Dagget, who right after promising not to do anything to ruin Norbert's movie, proceeds to spoil him the ending. Norbert naturally gets pissed off and bops him well before last week.
  • Shout-Out: The plot is a parody of Groundhog Day
  • Tempting Fate: Dag persists in annoying Norb despite knowing what would happen when he does. Once he tries to avoid getting bopped back a week, it gets to the point where he gets bopped again by accident.
