* DesperatelySeekingAPurposeInLife: Meggy's been trying (and failing) to find herself a new role ever since ''Machinima/MeggysDestinyAnSMG4Movie''. It's finally come to a head here.

* InnocuouslyImportantEpisode: Not the episode as a whole, who's importance is front and centre, but the segment where Meggy encounters the Hobos is just a part of the montage in the episode itself but they would go on to be a big part of the [[Machinima/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64BloopersGenesisArc Genesis Arc]].

* DamnedByAFoolsPraise: Inverted. Meggy, in a funk after winning the final Splatfest and having no more purpose in life is reluctant to even try finding a new job as she feels Splatfest is all she was ever good at. Then when [[TheFriendNoOneLikes Bob] says that jobs are overrated that she begs the others to help her find a job.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Meggy, back when she was an Inkling and prior to meeting [[TrueCompanions Mario and the rest of the Glitchy Gang,]] only really focused on competing in and winning Splatfest. Even when [[HumanityEnsues she was turned into a human at the end of the Anime Arc]], she never really wanted to do anything else. However, she never stopped and asked herself [[AndThenWhat what she'd do after winning]], and with Splatfest being cancelled due to lack of budget, she's been left directionless looking for various jobs in the Mushroom Kingdom since Inkopolis no longer has a place for her thanks to being inherently racist against non-resident species such as humans. This lack of a stable job and purpose has left her frustrated and even lashing out at her friends, something she regrets. Luckily for her, they're perfectly understanding, thus preventing Meggy from becoming the next ArcVillain.

** Shadow Meggy. Given Shadow Meggy's speech, she seems akin to the Shadow Selves of ''VideoGame/Persona4'', repressed negative thoughts by their real-life counterparts. [[note]]On Hobo bros, they have stated before that they are interested in the Persona series a few times.[[/note]]
* WhyDoYouKeepChangingJobs: PlayedForDrama, if not [[DeconstructedTrope outright Deconstructed]]. Meggy's lack of satisfaction in finding something she's good at has left her frustrated and on the verge of an emotional breakdown and possibly even running the risk of becoming a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds.
