3!!Tropes
4* AccidentalPun: Ennui thinks Devin when depressed is "cool".... while in the Arctic.
5* BigWhat: Ryan lets out a big one after Stephanie [[RevengeBeforeReason uses the boomerang on him]], which results in them having to do the ring toss again.

9* HeroicBSOD: [[OverlyLongGag Yet again]], Devin goes through the "[[FiveStagesOfGrief seven stages of heartbreak]]". In this episode, he starts off on depression, which results in him becoming little more than a whiny, depressed mess, before moving on to the forth stage: RockBottom.
10* HoistByHerOwnPetard: Josee attempts to sabotage the Surfer Dudes by planting them with doubt about each others' abilities. This backfires after the two have a talk about their doubts, which actually ends up strengthening their friendship and allows them to win first place.
11* IgnoredEpiphany: Just when it seems like the Haters' have realised the competition is tearing them apart and they're about to recoil... Stephanie insults Ryan once again, continuing their feud.
12* KickTheDog: Josee aggravates Owen's [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes fear of planes]] by pointing out how many crash in a year.
13* NeverMyFault: Stephanie continues to blame Ryan for the Daters' failures despite her being just as much to blame.
14-->'''Stephanie''': Second doesn't win a million bucks! We've only been first once because ''you'' keep dragging us down.\

16'''Stephanie''': Whoa-whoa! Look who's playing the BlameGame!
17* NotSoAboveItAll: Don over Josee venting her frustrations on Chilly Billy.
18* OhCrap: Don screams and runs away when he sees the giant snowball coming towards the finish line.
19* PetTheDog: Though he previously trolled them on their placing, Don sincerely tries to tell the Ice Dancers that second is pretty good.
20* PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The title is a play on the ''[[Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium Lord of the Rings]]'' franchise.
21* RevengeBeforeReason: Stephanie uses the boomerang on Ryan, forcing them to redo the narwhal ring toss, only this time Stephanie has to do it since Ryan did it previously.
22* ShoutOut: The idea of a snowman living at with Santa Claus comes from ''WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman''.
