Names The Same is no longer a trope


* NamesTheSame: The title is identical to an episode of the 1983 series, though the plot couldn't be more divergent-- ''this'' Peekablue is not a pretty peacock-tailed girl, not a hero, and... well, as it turns out, not even there.

* TheGadfly: Bow and Glimmer deliberately distract Adora with their exuberance while she's trying to focus on regaining control over her She-Ra form, Glimmer cheerfully pointing out that sooner or later Adora will have to learn how to transform with or without distractions. When Catra sees what's going on, she gleefully hops into Adora's lap, tickles her face with her tail while purring, and joins in on teasing her.

* ContrivedCoincidence: When Scorpia asks Peekablue to use his farsight to see what Adora is up to, he predicts that she is cutting down the Horde with her sword as She-Ra in space. When Scorpia points out that Adora does not have her sword anymore, he clumsily hand-waves this off as just being what he sees. With the reveal that he is just Double Trouble in disguise, the fact that they were right was a total accident.
