* ChekhovsSkill: After Sunshine is wished into being the new permanent teacher, Crocker is demoted to being a crossing guard. This ends up coming in handy when he saves Timmy from Doombringer by stopping traffic so that he can safely cross the road to get away from her. After that though, he signals traffic to resume on ''Timmy'' instead when he runs away.
* ComeWithMeIfYouWantToLive: A variation when Crocker uses his crossing guard position to save Timmy:
-->'''Mr. Crocker''': Turner! Cross the street if you wish to continue your existence!
* ComedicSociopathy: When Crocker signals traffic to resume after he saves Timmy, apparently none of the drivers at the intersection have any qualms about continuing their way with someone in the middle of the road. Then again, said someone [[WouldHurtAChild was threatening a child with a weapon]]. Then again, Crocker allows more cars to pass through but after Timmy this time as he runs away from him.


Added DiffLines:

* EnemyMine: This ends up being Mr. Crocker's rationale for [[BigDamnHeroes saving Timmy from Doombringer]]. If his earlier scene and PreMortemOneLiner is saying anything, he wasn't pleased about being replaced.
-->'''Timmy''': Wow, thanks, Mr. Crocker! But, why'd you save me?\\
'''Mr. Crocker''': Have you ever heard of the phrase, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend?" \\
'''Timmy''': Noo? \\
'''Mr. Crocker''': Then you get an F, [[SubvertedCatchphrase tomorrow!]]


Added DiffLines:

* ParentalBonus: When Crocker is seen again but as a crossing guard, he nearly gets hit by a car, which he angrily reprimands the driver for what caused the near-miss, which older people are more likely to get:
-->'''Mr. Crocker''': ''GAAH!'' You call that a lane change!? '''F!'''
* PreMortemOneLiner: A G-rated one, but as a crossing guard, Crocker delivers one to Doombringer as he signals traffic to resume while she's still in the middle of the road.
-->'''Mr. Crocker''': Thought you'd steal my teaching job, eh?


Added DiffLines:

** This is followed by a BondOneLiner from Crocker:

* GoodBehaviorPoints: Substitute teacher Ms. Sunshine gives her students gold stars for the simplest tasks, like answering questions (whether they be right ''or'' wrong) and going to the bathroom (Timmy even keeps a full pitcher of water on his desk so he can earn more stars). Ms. Sunshine is then revealed to be an evil fairy hunter named Ms. Doombringer, and the gold stars turn out to be magic-detecting devices that she planted to see which children had fairies.
* HotTeacher: The new teacher Ms. Doombringer/Sunshine is rather beautiful and based on her two outfits, she clearly has some fashion sense. After Ms. Doombringer is defeated, Mr. Crocker offers Timmy a gold star himself, but Timmy freaks out and leaves.

* BatmanGambit: Ms. Doombringer, a fairy hunter, passes off as a substitute named Mrs. Sunshine to take Mr. Crocker's place; after shedding her disguise, she reveals she knew someone with a fairy godparent would wish she was a permanent teacher and will destroy that fairy, meaning Cosmo and Wanda are in danger.



* OhCrap: Timmy's reaction when Mrs. Sunshine reveals her true colors as evil fairy hunter Ms. Doombringer, meaning Cosmo and Wanda are at an even greater risk at being exposed and killed by her.
* OhNoNotAgain: After Timmy defeats Ms. Doombringer, Mr. Crocker offers him a gold star as congratulations. Timmy promptly screams and runs off.

* BigNo:
** When Timmy is helping Elmer distract Ms. Doombringer, he adds that he will surpass Sanjay on the "Turnertastic Friendship scale". Sanjay who was nearby in the toilets, lets out this trope in anguish.
** Ms. Doombringer lets one out when she is about to get taken away by a bus.
* BigWhat: By Sanjay when Mrs. Sunshine announces her departure.



* {{Foreshadowing}}: Note Mrs. Sunshine's true nature as a fairy hunter when she voices her parting words.
-->'''Mrs. Sunshine:''' I'm just the substitute. I wish I didn't have to leave. If only there was a way someone could just... I don't know... wave a magic wand and make me your permanent teacher... ''(sighs)'' I wish...
* FreezeFrameBonus: A quick glance on Ms. Doombringer's "How to Hunt Fairies" book reveals her full name as [[IronicName Mary Alice Doombringer.]]



* NoNonsenseNemesis: Ms. Doombringer is even worse than Mr. Crocker is, and will stop at nothing to find fairies in the room, even if she has to talk someone down.
