An uneasy Tylor tries to shirk his new found teammates at MIFT. However, an emergency in the Laugh Floor may leave him as the team's last and only hope...
Tropes:
- Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Millie, as shown in the Cold Opening.
- Bland-Name Product: 361/2 Hour Energy is presented as a stand in for the real life 5-Hour Energy, as are the half as powerful 181/4 Hour Energy and twice as powerful 73-Hour Energy (the latter two being mentioned only).
- Brick Joke: During Tylor's Initiation Ceremony, he's asked to screw a nut into a bolt with a wrench, but he screws it up by screwing the nut off the bolt and it rolls into a grate. In the last scene before "Mike's Comedy Class", the same nut lands on Tylor's new desk.
- Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Tylor sees firsthand how much MIFT takes their job seriously when they try to help Mike out of a malfunctioning door.
- The Cameo: Rosie Levin, the leader of the Eta Hiss Hiss sorority from Monsters University, appears during the scene of Mike giving his comedy class.
- Chekhov's Skill: During Tylor's initiation ceremony, he's asked to screw a nut into a bolt. The required skill becomes needed later when he and his fellow MIFTers help Mike out of a malfunctioning door.
- Credits Gag: The end of the credits has Val congratulating the viewers for making it through the credits. The lines are at the bottom of this page.
- Credits Jukebox: The end credits use a slight variation of the Monsters, Inc. theme.
- Door Dumb: Tylor shouts at the MIFT team about how ridiculous they are, even as he pulls repeatedly at a door trying to get out of their office, before being told to push.
- Filler: The episode ends with a segment called "Mike's Comedy Class", with Mike singing a song about the dangers of comedy.
- Initiation Ceremony: A humorous variation is held to Tylor's chagrin.
- Mum Looks Like a Sister: Fritz attempts to be cheeky by "mistaking" Tylor's mother for his sister.
- Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Mike was able to fill dozens of laughing canisters all on his own, which is both impressive yet tiring for him.
- Saying Sound Effects Out Loud: When he finds that Tylor left already without getting his soft drink that he was planning on giving him, Fritz says aloud, “Sigh, disappointed.”
- Second Place Is for Losers: A humorous variation since Mike has the top two spots as a jokester on the laugh floor. Mike, however, is disappointed and irritated when his worst performing workstation placed fourth while Lanky placed third.
- The Stinger: Val congratulates the viewer for staying through the credits and we get one last "MIFTer" from Fritz.
- The Thing That Would Not Leave: The entire MIFT team tends to be rather exuberant to the point of clinginess about Tylor being a member of MIFT, particularly Fritz. It's implied when Banana Bread/Winchester got promoted to Jokester status and left MIFT at the end of the episode that this is because a lot of people have walked out on MIFT for bigger things and it breaks Fritz's heart to see any member of his makeshift family leave.
- Workaholic: Mike has been producing laugh energy non-stop for 18 hours. While it's understandable since there are constant power outages, it begins to take its toll on him.
