2----
3!!Tropes employed include:
4
5* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The Delta batch was almost killed by...something. Curing this removed their accents.
6* AssholeVictim: The Imperial Officer in charge of Alpha-12 never passes an opportunity to needlessly berate his subordinate at every turn. Said-officer's later incompetence gets him killed by Vader himself.
7%%* BadBoss: %%Needs more context
8* BrickJoke: During the battle of Utapau, a battle droid gets shot and says "Ow!", prompting Danson to yell that droids can't feel pain. Upon encountering a droid being tortured in Jabba's palace during episode 4, and when Rook accidentally triggers some mines that cause him to say "Ow!" in episode 7, Danson officially restates that droids feel pain.
9%%* ButtMonkey: %%Needs more context
10%%* CallForward: %%Needs more context
11* CloudCuckoolander: Danson is blissfully unaware that almost everyone he knows is trying to kill him.
12%%* ContinuityNod: %%Needs more context
13* CreditsGag: The title card for the first 3 episodes features the subtitle "Special Edition". The "ition" promptly falls off to make "Special Ed", referring to Danson.
14%%* DoubleEntendre: The rifle gag? %%Needs more context
15%%* EvilBrit: Imperial officers. They want Danson's rifle. %%Needs more context
16* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Vocal example in episode 7. The episode starts with Danson crashing into a hanger, and shortly after leaving, the computer reports about the fire in Hanger 14. Throughout the episode, the voice can be heard reporting that the fire has spread to several other hangers across the Death Star, with seemingly no one doing anything to contain it. [[note]] Adds some FridgeBrilliance as to why the Death Star deployed so few TIE Fighters. Danson's fire was literally stopping the Empire from effectively launching more.[[/note]]
17%%* {{Irony}}: %%Needs more context
18* LampshadeHanging: Mocks the standard video game tropes, and ''Franchise/StarWars'' too.
19%%* TheLoad: Scout. %%Needs more context
20* MyNaymeIs: B''h''iff
21* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: Most of the clones. Lampshaded in the first episode.
22* OverusedRunningGag: Did we mention they want his rifle? Comes to a head when the Recon Droid finally decides to speak up about his rifle, leading to Danson's frustration peaking.
23-->'''Danson''': Great, you're obsessed with my rifle and you don't even have hands! Seriously, Mr. Probe Droid, I'm in a hurry! And am totally non threatening! [[NotHelpingYourCase I'm only slightly armed and I have been told my rifle has user error.]]\
24'''Probe Droid''': Die, Rebel scum, die! ''(immediately begins firing at Danson)''
25* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Danson, when he returns to the Death Star, recognizes that everybody is out to hunt him down, including Bhiff.
26-->'''Danson''': Man, I am so not going to miss the future!
27* TimeSkip: From ''Revenge of the Sith'' to ''A New Hope''. A ''second'' time skip sends the main cast to ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''.
28* ScoobyDoobyDoors: Used to hilarious effect during Episode 7.
29* SociopathicSoldier: Alpha-12, Teflin [=McBomb=], and Rook.
30%%* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Literally one female character, Colonel Vespa. %%Needs more context
31%%* UngratefulBastard: %%Needs more context
