Go To

Music genre: Tarantella

Luau Brothers Pablo, Tyrone and Austin have their luau interrupted by Volcano Sisters Uniqua and Tasha, who are mad and want something, and unless they get them what they want, the volcano will erupt. The Brothers scramble to find out what the Sisters want, but it looks like only Austin knows the answer.

"If you don't give us the tropes we want...HUKA PELE!"

  • An Aesop: If someone has a better idea than you, it's best to listen to them.
  • Big Red Button: One next to the Sisters that will make the volcano erupt when pressed.
  • "Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: If Tyrone and Pablo let Austin speak, they would've found out what the Sisters wanted without any of the episode's events occuring in the first place.
  • Extreme Doormat: Tyrone and Pablo have several suggestions to what the Volcano Sisters want; Austin tries to cut in and tell them something, but they keep interrupting him.
  • Incoming Ham: "WE ARE MAD!!"
  • Meaningful Name: Tyrone is called "Tyrone the Strong" because of his enhanced strength. Pablo is "Pablo the Swift" because of his super speed. Austin is at first called "Just Austin" because he is thought to possess no special talent, but when it was revealed he knew what the Volcano Sisters wanted, he was renamed "Austin the Smart".
  • Only Sane Man: Of the Brothers, Austin was the only one who knew what the Sisters wanted: they wanted to be invited to their luau, and he gives them leis as an invitation.
  • Race Against the Clock: The Luau Brothers have only a matter of time to bring the Volcano Sisters what they want before they erupt the volcano.
  • Rule of Three: The Volcano Sisters reject the very heavy tiki mask and the world's shiniest pearl, but when Austin gives them flowers to wear to the luau, they accept.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: Turns out the one thing the Volcano Sisters wanted was to be invited to the luau; Austin was the only one who knew this, but Pablo and Tyrone kept ignoring him.
  • Unstoppable Rage: The Volcano Sisters are in a foul mood indeed; unless the Luau Brothers give them what they want, they'll erupt the volcano and ruin their luau.
