Tooth or Consequences: A sensational video turns Molly's excitement about an upcoming dentist visit into panic.

  • Pun-Based Title: "Tooth" in for "truth."
  • The Tooth Hurts: Molly is suffering from a cavity, but still avoids the dentist.

"Qyah Spy" contains the following tropes:

  • An Aesop: Just because someone dresses in unfamiliar clothes or speaks an unfamiliar language doesn't mean they're a threat.
  • Code Name: Molly and Tooey use code names for themselves and Suki during their game.
  • Delicious Distraction: Kenji dissuades the kids from shadowing him by offering them a snack of dried seaweed.
  • Gratuitous Foreign Language: Molly and Tooey believe the Mongolian spoken between Midge and her friend is actually some kind of code.
  • Insistent Terminology: Molly insists Tooey call her Agent Double-o-Ten-and-a-Half.
  • Walkie-Talkie Static: Tooey notices the static on Molly's radio gets louder or clearer depending on where she's standing.
