Added DiffLines:

* BehindTheBlack: Nobody notices the giant sandwich crusher Chuck has positioned over the grocery store until he points it out.
* CallingMeALogarithm: Played with. Chuck is insulted by the grocery store manager calling his sandwich repulsive, even though he doesn't know what the word means. Only in this case, it actually ''is'' an insult.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Won't let Chuck sell his latest sandwich creating in front of your grocery store? Prepare to have it crushed!
* HamsterWheelPower: After Captain [=HuggyFace=] breaks it, Chuck powers his crusher by running on a treadmill.
* RhetoricalQuestionBlunder: When Becky asks to try Chuck's new sandwich and he replies that he's busy trying to crush the grocery store, she asks if he's Chuck the Evil Sandwich-Making Guy or Chuck the Evil Grocery Store-Crushing Guy. He replies the former, because "that's what it says on [his] mail."
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: When Violet jokes that Becky is almost as busy as [=WordGirl=]:
-->'''Becky:''' Yeah! Yeah, almost! But I'm sure not [=WordGirl=]! And I never have to dart away to fight crime, nope! So I'll be here by your side to support you and help you all day! Yup.
* TakeAThirdOption: Lampshaded. When the narrator outlines how Becky has to choose between stopping Chuck and breaking her promise to stay by Violet's side, she asks if there isn't a third option. The narrator indirectly suggests that she find a way to stop Chuck ''as'' Becky.
* VerbalBackspace: When Becky apologises about not being able to help Violet with her lemonade stand.
-->'''Becky:''' Yeah, sorry about that. Mr. Big-- ''[Bob elbows her]'' I mean, something big came up.

Added DiffLines:

* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Count Cloudy's gigantic weeds block out the sun, meaning that the Wondertown elves can't grow anything. Also, their personalities are obnoxious.
* BigNo: [=WordGirl=] does this when she sees that Sparkletopia has lost its sparkle in Becky's dream.
* CrashingDreams: As Becky wakes up from her dream, Pretty Princess tells her that she's "all done dappling". It turns out it's actually her dad saying it, referring to his gardening from earlier in the episode.
* DreamSequence: When falling asleep in front of the Pretty Princess Magic Pony Power Hour marathon, Becky has one in which she has to save a de-sparkled Sparkletopia as [=WordGirl=] by doing exaggerated versions of the chores she put off.
* GotMeDoingIt: [=WordGirl=] accidentally catches Pretty Princess's {{Smurfing}} when she quotes something the princess said earlier.
* IJustLikeSayingTheWord: Magic Pony asks [=WordGirl=] what the word "shirk" means, as he loves to say it. He proceeds to do so several times in a row.


Added DiffLines:

* LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand: When [=WordGirl=] enters Pretty Princess's royal palace and sees a gigantic pile of laundry, the dreamlike flute music that was playing in the background dies down.
* NoAntagonist: [=WordGirl=] doesn't fight any villains in this episode. The closest she gets is pulling out some talking giant weeds in a dream.
* RealityEnsues: Superspeed alone isn't going to instantly clean a pile of dirty dishes. You still need to put in the effort to actually clean them.
* {{Smurfing}}: After [=WordGirl=] cleans up the butterscotch all over Sparkletopia, Pretty Princess says, "Don't put off until sparklemorrow what can be done sparkleday!"
* SugarApocalypse: Downplayed. In Becky's dream, Sparkletopia has lost its sparkle, leaving it dark and dreary.
* TalkingInYourSleep: Becky starts doing this at the end of the episode, when she falls asleep a second time after doing her chores properly.
* VerbalBackspace: Before [=WordGirl=]'s final dream task, Pretty Princess tells her that her final chore is just around the corner. When [=WordGirl=] questions what she means by "chore", she amends it to "fun adventure".
