Recap / The Mask S 2 E 18 The Mother Of All Hoods

Go To

After being humiliated by The Mask on a police reality show, Lieutenant Kellaway tries to prove to the Edge City police force, and his visiting mother (guest voiced by Estelle Harris), that he is a competent police detective by going on a stakeout to uncover plans of a criminal known as The Hood to have Mayor Tilton kidnapped.

Tropes:

  • Momma's Boy: It is implied that The Mask along with Stanley love their mother very much and her cooking as well from The Mask's comment.
    Mask: Time for nuclear burritos! Ah-Ah! Just like Mama's microwave used to make.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The Mask as usual is this as he decides to interfere in Kellaway's investigation on The Hood and his gang but he does throw the jerk part out halfway through and decided to rescue Kellaway's mother and Mayor Tilton from The Hood and his gang even informing Kellaway of where his mother is along with him showing as always just how much of a Nice Guy The Mask really is.
  • Jewish Mother: Mrs Kellaway is this considering she nags her son a lot and when she decided to join him on the stakeout he’s horrified that she wanted to join in and throughout it al she cannot shut up while undercover at the diner while her son keeps shushing her to be quiet.
  • Just Ignore It: Kellaway decide to prove to everyone including his mother that he is a competent police detective by ignoring The Mask but however he starts to lose it with his eye twitching and eventually he explodes at the end when Mayor Tilton tells him he stopped The Hood and saved everyone else.
  • Nice Guy: The Mask is very polite with Kellaway's mother despite that he makes fun of her son and dances with her at the Coco Bongo even being gentle with her as well showing just how much he holds himself back from going too far and he also knows when not to go too strong.
    Mask: So you're Kellaway's mom, uh? Well you must be very proud. So, what's his first name anyway? (she's about to answer but The Mask decides to take a guess.) No, no, no, no, no. Let me guess. Cosmo? Hurbert? Rumpelstiltskin?
  • Non-Human Head: The Mask feeling bored because of the Coco Bongo being closed along with feeling guilty for letting the criminals get away decide to look for them which he turns his head into a dog while behaving like Sherlock Holmes which he sniffs around for clues only to get nothing but a can that goes up his nose then he smells chip flavour from a factory which causes him to change his head back to normal.
  • Singing in the Shower: Stanley takes a shower which he sings in it but then ends up having shampoo in his eyes so he decide to take a towel to dry himself but Milo puts the mask under it and Stanley accidentally puts it on which The Mask in a hawaiian beach clothes tells Milo he's going to go to the meeting where Kellaway and The Hood are which he got from Stanley's memories.
    Stanley: YE-DA, LA, LA, LA, LA, LA. (but then gets shampoo in his eyes) OW! Oh, i got shampoo in my eyes. Towel, towel. Where'd that towel go? (Milo gives the mask over to him) Oh, thanks Milo. (he puts the mask of Loki up to his face which is when it wraps itself around his head.)
    Mask: (The Mask comes out of the whirlwind and is in a hawaiian dance outfit.) Guess Who-La's coming to diner. (He then dances around clearly deciding to dance in the shower first before heading over to the diner where Kellaway is undercover.)
