Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': Certain minorities are often cast primarily as blue-collar workers.
* '''Straight''': The WhiteAngloSaxonProtestant Davidson family has a Puerto Rican maid, Isabela, and a black gardener, Gregory.
* '''Exaggerated''': Every family in the Davidsons' neighborhood is white, and they all hired ethnic minorities as "the help".
* '''Downplayed''': ???
* '''Justified''': ???
* '''Inverted''': Isabela and Gregory are a married couple with a white maid.

* '''Invoked''': ???
* '''Exploited''': Gregory is actually an undercover cop spying on the Davidsons. His cover story is as their gardener because [[BeneathSuspicion they wouldn't look twice]] at minorities, especially if they're the help.

* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': "How come every maid we see on TV now is Hispanic?"
