Penny gets the chance to win 1 million dollars to shoot or have someone else shoot a basketball at half court and Oscar tries to convince Penny to pick him.
Tropes:
- As Himself: Kobe Bryant.
- Flashback: Oscar explains to Penny in flashback how he "shut the Wizard down and almost won the state championship game."
- Freudian Excuse: Zoey lampshades a possible theory as to why Proud Snax are toxic: "It’s pain and disappointment."
- Jerkass Ball: This is where Sugar Momma really acts like an asshole towards Oscar. While she belittle and physically assaulted him in the past, making jeers against him when he was playing basketball shows how much she disrespects him. And people wonder why Oscar hates her guts.
- Hidden Depths: Dijonay somehow starts talking to Kobe Bryant in Italian (Kobe himself is fluent in the language). Penny even lampshades this.
- Shout-Out: When Penny is on her date, the music in the movie they are watching sounds a lot like Michael Jackson's "Thriller."
- Throw the Dog a Bone: Oscar makes the million dollar shot but Wizard Kelly tries to trick him with a million dollars worth of coupons for one his restaurants. However, Penny points out that the coupons are valid today and treats everyone in the stadium for ice cream.
- What Could Have Been: In-universe. Had Oscar won the state championship game, he and Wizard Kelly’s roles would have been switched.
