* CynicIdealistDuo: Much of Bob and Linda's plotline in the film is about examining this dynamic, [[spoiler:with Bob realizing in the third act how exhausting being the idealist to Bob's cynic must be for Linda and resolving to try and give some back.]]

to:

* ChekovsGag:
** The grody-looking tooth the corpse loses in Louise's mouth when she finds it [[spoiler:matches perfectly to a scar on Grover's arm.]]
** Calvin's surprise that the stuffed animal storage room is nearly empty sets up that [[spoiler:Grover stole all the stuffed animals to use as kindling with which to burn down Wonder Wharf.]]
* CynicIdealistDuo: Much of Bob and Linda's plotline in the film is about examining this dynamic, [[spoiler:with Bob realizing in the third act how exhausting being the idealist to Bob's cynic must be for Linda and resolving to try and give some back.]] ]]
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The Fischoeders have one beneath Wonder Wharf, since the Wharf was built on top of an entirely different amusement park their father once owned. As such, it mostly consists of storage areas and disused rides and attractions, including a submarine-themed roller coaster Felix and Calvin have somehow convinced themselves they've turned into an actual working submarine.


Added DiffLines:

* NotHelpingYourCase: Felix obliviously rambles on to some news reporters about how some behaviors Calvin exhibited the night of the murder are just normal things everyone does, like getting violent and making death threats.


Added DiffLines:

* VillainSong: The real murderer, [[spoiler:Grover]], gets one.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: Gene, as per usual. He doesn't get to do any crossdressing in the film, but is thrilled Linda has added a bikini to his burger costume and asks why he didn't think of it himself.

Added DiffLines:

* OpeningShoutOut: The first act features the burger falling into place, the pest control van, and the store next door's punny sign--which is immediately removed and the storefront put up for rent. [[spoiler:The end of the film features the Grand Re-Re-Re-Opening sign, with another Re- added since the restaurant was closed while the sinkhole was out front.]]

Bob and Linda have just seven days to make up the money to pay a bank loan, an already impossible task complicated when a burst pipe creates a sinkhole by the front entrance to Bob's Burgers and, worse still, a dead body's discovered at the bottom--and to top it all off, the lead suspect is their landlord, Calvin Fischoeder. Suspecting a frame job, Louise sets out to solve the murder, clear Calvin, and save the restaurant, and maybe prove to school bully Chloe Barbash she's neither a coward nor a baby. Also along for the ride, naturally, are Tina, who's preoccupied with plans to make things official with Jimmy Jr., and Gene, who's hoping to showcase his newest musical invention at Wonder Wharf's bandstand.

Bob and Linda have just seven days to make up the money to pay a bank loan, an already impossible task complicated when a burst pipe creates a sinkhole by the front entrance to Bob's Burgers and, worse Burgers. Worse still, a dead body's murder victim's body is discovered at the bottom--and bottom of the hole--and to top it all off, the lead suspect in the murder is their landlord, Calvin Fischoeder. Suspecting a frame job, Louise sets out to solve the murder, clear Calvin, and save the restaurant, and maybe prove to school bully Chloe Barbash she's neither a coward nor a baby. Also along for the ride, naturally, are Tina, who's preoccupied with plans to make things official with Jimmy Jr., and Gene, who's hoping to showcase his newest musical invention at Wonder Wharf's bandstand.


Added DiffLines:

* BittersweetEnding: As befitting any ''Bob's Burgers'' story, success is achieved with little to no long-term change. [[spoiler:All the property damage and murder is averted, and Bob and Linda successfully pay ''this month's'' share of the loan, saving the restaurant. But Gene's big concert only attracts the attention of his parents and Teddy, and Tina gets a smooch out of Jimmy Jr. but just as little commitment as usual. Louise avoids freaking out about losing her ears, but she only loses them for about a minute so there's no way to tell if that character growth stuck.]]
* BrokenPedestal: Tina muses at one point that the reason she's nervous about asking Jimmy Jr. to be her summer boyfriend might not be a fear of rejection, but rather a fear that she might not enjoy going out with Jimmy Jr. after all. [[spoiler:The pedestal is [[RebuiltPedestal rebuilt]] at the end when Jimmy Jr. finds the hair clip necklace she was planning on using to propose, and tells her he saved it because it reminded him of her.]]


Added DiffLines:

* CynicIdealistDuo: Much of Bob and Linda's plotline in the film is about examining this dynamic, [[spoiler:with Bob realizing in the third act how exhausting being the idealist to Bob's cynic must be for Linda and resolving to try and give some back.]]


Added DiffLines:

* IWantSong: The film's opening musical number succinctly lays out the practical and emotional stakes for all five Belchers.
* JurisdictionFriction: Being in the burglary department, Sgt. Bosco has absolutely no business investigating the murder, and as such spends his screentime trying desperately to convince anyone who'll listen how much cooler his beat is than homicide. [[spoiler:The Belchers throw him a bone at the end of the movie by tipping him off to Grover's location, allowing him to be first on the scene.]]
* RuleOfThrees: Three times Mr. Frond tries to council Louise during an emotionally fraught situation. The first two times he gets shouted down for his trouble, [[spoiler:while in the third Louise has successfully solved her problem herself and calmly reassures Mr. Frond that she's fine.]]

The story begins when a ruptured water main creates an enormous sinkhole right in front of Bob's Burgers, blocking the entrance indefinitely and ruining the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer. While Bob and Linda struggle to keep the business afloat, the kids try to solve a mystery that could save their family's restaurant. As the dangers mount, these underdogs help each other find hope and fight to get back behind the counter, where they belong.

* SexyWhateverOutfit: In the teaser trailer, Linda puts a bikini on top of Gene's burger costume to make it a "sexy burger" to attract business.

to:

* CallBack:
** Tina's delight at [[spoiler:and subsequent horror at the destruction of]] the carousel horses calls back to the season four two-part finale, which featured both as a plot point. Fanny, from those same episodes, also returns, with Felix assuring the Belchers she's now less murdery.
** Gene reunites the Itty Bitty Ditty Committee, his band with Tina, Louise, Darryl, Regular-Sized Rudy, and Peter Pescadaro from the season five episode of the same name. Darryl and Rudy, for their part, barely remember that that happened.
** The personalities Louise ascribes to her two Kuchi Kopi toys, the damaged one vengeful and spiteful and the newer one sagelike and calm, call back to the first time she imagined talking to them in season five's "Flu-ouise".
** Tina's imaginary horse Jerico returns, last seen in season six's "The Horse Rider-er".
* FrameUp: Louise suspects Calvin's been framed, since he'd probably be a bit less blasé about being accused of murder if he actually did it.
* LampshadeHanging: Louise mentions she's had her bunny ears since high school. Damaged Kuchi Kopi's main concern is that her head, by this logic, hasn't grown at all in six years.
* TheReveal: We see [[spoiler:Bob's long dead mom]] in flashback for the first time when Bob explains where he and Linda got the idea for Louise's bunny ears.
* SexyWhateverOutfit: In the teaser trailer, Linda puts a bikini on top of Gene's burger costume to make it a "sexy burger" to attract business.business.
* TheUnreveal: Louise's hat [[spoiler:does come off, but she's out of frame when it happens.]]
