* FatIdiot: Heffer has a tough time winning points to score 666 and win the trip to Heck. In Round One, he thinks that Hamburgers are made from ham, in Round Two, he answers "Sea Monkeys" before Peaches even has a chance to ask the question, and in Round Three, he thinks that a flat, round italian dish with pepperoni is a calzone. Only by sheer luck does he win Round Four by correctly guessing "Big Fat Cow" before the wheel even stops spinning.

The fourth episode of the fourth season of ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife''.
'''Heff in a Handbasket'''
Dark Lord Peaches baits Heffer into a game show appearance in another attempt to claim his soul.
'''Wallaby on Wheels'''
Rocko takes up roller-skating in an attempt to impress Sheila.
----
!! "Heff in a Handbasket" provides examples of:
* BigNo: Peaches belts one out as being given "the Ultimate Punishment."
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: This exchange occurs when Heffer leaves Rocko's house to compete on ''Triple 6'':
-->'''Rocko:''' Heffer, what channel?\\
'''Heffer:''' 66!\\
'''Rocko:''' 66?!\\
'''Filburt:''' What's wrong?\\
'''Rocko:''' I haven't got cable.
* DealWithTheDevil: Peaches nets Heffer into one by tricking him into going on the ''Triple 6'' game show, where the grand prize is a trip to Heck. Unfortunately for him, Heffer's Grandmother has other ideas.
* DrowningMySorrows: Peaches does this after getting yelled at by his boss for failing to bring one soul to Heck for the last 600+ years.
* FatIdiot: Heffer has a tough time winning points to score 666 and win the trip to Heck. In Round One, he thinks that Hamburgers are made from ham, in Round Two, he answers "Sea Monkeys" before Peaches even has a chance to ask the question, and in Round Three, he thinks that a flat, round italian dish with pepperoni is a calzone. Only by sheer luck does he win Round Four by correctly guessing "Big Fat Cow" before the wheel even stops spinning.
* FamilyThemeNaming: A variant; after Heffer loses one point in Round One, Round Two has him compete against three clones of himself named Heffie, Heffa, and Heffo.
* FireAndBrimstoneHell: While Heck was revealed to be a backdrop of this for tourists in a previous episode, "[[Recap/RockosModernLifeS1E11PowerTripToHeckAndBack To Heck and Back]]", here, the trope is played straight.
* GrimReaper: Peaches is supposed to bring people to their eternal [[GoshDangItToHeck Darnation]], but he apparently hasn't done that for more than 600 years, much to the rage of his Master.
* HumiliationConga: Peaches has one where he tries to get Heffer score ''one'' game show question correctly to complete the contractual obligation of Heffer suffering in Heck for the rest of eternity.
* NumberOfTheBeast: The references to 666 are present all throughout this episode. The number to apply for Peaches' game show is "[[FiveFiveFive 555]] and [[SuddenlyShouting THEN A BUNCH OF SIXES]]", the name of the show is ''Triple 6'', the show is broadcast on channel 66, and Heffer needs to score 666 points to win.
* SelfDeprecation: This episode ends with Peaches becoming the star of his own show called ''Peaches' Modern Life'', a parody of the show itself. Rocko, Heffer, and Filburt see the show and they all dismiss it as being "boring".
* YouAreWorthHell: Played with; after Heffer wins a trip to Heck and learns that's where his deceased grandmother rests, rather than Heaven, Heffer insists on staying in Heck to be with his grandmother, even though Peaches sends him back to Earth after Grandma threatens him.
!! "Wallaby on Wheels" provides examples of:
* {{Acrofatic}}: Heffer can skate surprisingly well despite his weight.
* BeYourself: After Rocko saves Heffer at the end of the episode, this act impresses Sheila. Rocko admits to Sheila that he's not a professional skater and just wanted to impress her. Sheila tells Rocko that it's his kindness that impresses her, not his skating. She is, however, impressed by Rocko's jackhammering.
* BittersweetEnding: After Heffer saves Rocko from following into the O-Town Bottomless Pit, he gets knocked unconscious by a crane and is out of control. Rocko catches up to him with a construction worker's jackhammer, and uses it to redirect a fallen model Earth from a Health Club chasing Heffer into the Bottomless Pit to plug it up. Heffer lands on top of the model Earth, and this heroic act impresses Sheila. After Rocko confesses to Sheila that he's not a professional skater and just wanted to impress her, the model Earth crumbles, causing Heffer to fall into the Bottomless Pit anyway.
* BottomlessPit: After Rocko clears the obstacle course through sheer luck, he skates out of control through O-Town and is headed for its Bottomless Pit. Heffer catches up to Rocko and saves him, but then gets knocked unconscious by a crane. Rocko uses a construction worker's jackhammer to catch up to Heffer and to redirect a model Earth from a Health Club to plug the Bottomless Pit up, saving Heffer... at least until the model Earth crumbles, causing Heffer to fall into it anyway.
* CallingYourBathroomBreaks: This exchange occurs after Sheila asks Rocko if he'd like to skate with her:
-->'''Heffer:''' He'd love to!\\
'''Rocko:''' Wha?\\
'''Heffer:''' But first we gotta go to the bathroom.\\
'''Rocko:''' But I don't have to go to the...\\
'''Heffer:''' Yes, you do!\\
(''Heffer skates away with Rocko'')
* HiddenDepths: This episode reveals that Heffer is very skilled at roller skating. When Rocko is surprised to hear about this, Heffer tells him, "I'm into a lot of stuff that you don't know about."
* IndyEscape: An unconscious Heffer causes a car to swerve into a Health Club, causing the model Earth on top of it to roll off and chase him. Rocko manages to get ahead of the model Earth and redirect it to plug up the O-Town Bottomless Pit.
* InterspeciesRomance: Rocko, a wallaby, has a crush on Sheila, a fox.
* KissingInATree: Heffer sings this after figuring out Rocko's affection for Sheila, but doesn't bother to spell "kissing".
* OffModel: Throughout the episode, Rocko wears a pair of green roller skates. When he looks up at the obstacle course, his roller skates are orange like his regular shoes.
* RodAndReelRepurposed: Because Rocko is so bad at rollerskating, Heffer uses a fishing pole to lift him in the air.
* SeesawCatapult: While running through the obstacle course, Rocko falls through several floors. He eventually lands on one end of a seesaw, and the floors land on the other end, launching him into the air, past the more dangerous obstacles, and to the finish line.
* SharkPool: One of the stunts Heffer performs at the roller rink is skating over a tank of live sharks.
* {{Spoonerism}}: At the beginning of this episode, Rocko reads a ''Really Really Big Man'' comic book where RRBM tells Agnes that to prove his love for her, he would swim the highest mountain or climb the deepest sea.
* TitleDrop: After Rocko puts on his roller skates, he says, "I'm a wallaby on wheels."
* WingdingEyes: Rocko's pupils turn into hearts when he gets a crush on Sheila.
