"Dieseling Derby" contains examples of:

  • Accidental Hero: Lumpy saves the day by running over Fliqpy with his car. But that wasn't the only victim of his stupidity.
  • Bear Trap: Kenny gets himself clamped by one. He attempts to free himself, tearing his body in the process.
  • The Bus Came Back: This is Flippy and Chef Pee Pee's first appearance since "And It Just Fixs!" and "Blind Mistake" respectively.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death:
    • Cuddles is stabbed in the chest by a lolipop stick.
    • Kenny gets clamped by a beartrap, is severed in half as he tries to free himself, and gets stabbed in the forehead by a knife.
  • Debut Queue: This is Larry Koopa's first appearance in the series.
  • Downer Ending: The trick-or-treaters all die at the hands of Fliqpy and Lumpy, who too die in this episode.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Larry's short fuse and clumsiness, which are more recipes for disaster.
  • Evil Versus Evil: Well, if you want to get technical, Larry, who is a recurring boss and antagonist in the Super Mario franhise, against Fliqpy, the only Happy Tree Friend to purposely kill others.
  • Halloween Cosplay: Larry is Frankenstein, Kenny has a knife in his head, Cuddles wears the mask of a serial killer, and Kirby uses his Sword Ability for his Halloween costume.
  • Halloween Episode: The first of 2023 and the second one overall.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: How does Larry respond to Dedede refusing to give any candy? Why, he repeatedly stomps on him.
  • High-Pressure Emotion: Larry Koopa upon Dedede turned down his request of candy.
  • Ironic Death: Kenny, whose costume is a knife impaling his head, gets stabbed in the forehead by a real knife,
  • Jerkass: Dedede refuses to give Larry any candy out of selfishness.
  • Oh, Crap!: So, so many from Larry. Kenny also gives one with him at the sight of Fliqpy's first kill.
  • Pun-Based Title: "Good Night!"
  • Running Gag: Most of the deaths in this episode are caused by knifes, and Kenny's Halloween costume even has him impaled by one.
  • They Killed Kenny Again: Cuddles, Chef Pee Pee, Kenny, Fliqpy, Larry, Kirby, and Lumpy die in this episode.
  • Thousand-Yard Stare: Flippy naturally has this as he flips out.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: 5-Volt, several Waddle Dees, Bandana Waddle Dee, Poppy Bros. Jr., King Dedede (although he was beaten up), Butters Stotch, and Linda Stotch survive this episode.
