Recap / We Bare Bears S 4 E 15 Money Man

Go To

The Bears help Chloe present her project for a college science contest. But Chloe's rival makes things difficult.


Tropes:

  • Absent-Minded Professor: Dr. Bean, the judge of the science contest.
  • Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: Dr. Bean has a habit of walking away in the middle of a presentation, which is why Chloe and Saanvi both make big flashy presentations to keep him interested.
  • Dark Horse Victory: Neither Chloe nor Saanvi win the science contest, a random jock who passed by them earlier in the episode does with a basketball with a smiley face drawn on it.
  • Mental Picture Projector: Chloe's project is a machine that can display a picture of what someone is thinking.
  • Rivals Team Up: Chloe and Saanvi combine their projects to find Dr. Bean.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: Neither Chloe nor Saanvi get the winning trophy. They console themselves with the fact that they put their inventions together and made a great one that would change the world; unfortunately, it gets confiscated by the government.
  • Shout-Out:
    • A sign on a hallway points to room A113. This is the number of the animation room at CalArts and a popular Easter Egg for animators, especially at Pixar (where show creator and CalArts grad Daniel Chong used to work).
    • Saanvi's invention resembles the Dragon Ball radar in all but name.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: Saanvi is Chloe's academic rival competing for the same prize.
