!!Tropes present:

* DistractedByTheSexy: The opening riot is kicked off by Abe tripping during a track meet because he saw Cleo pouring a sports drink all over herself.

* OliveGarden: Referenced when Scudworth suggests he and the Shadowy Figures have dinner at the trope-naming restaurant, comparing it to “the private kitchen of a delightful Italian stereotype.”

* AintNoRule: Abe's contribution to the festival, ''It Takes A Hero'' is basically this trope in one ridiculous package, revolving around a giraffe playing football and consists mostly of dated sports movie cliches like the opposing team being called The Bad Guys, and it all coming down to one shot.

* LeFilmArtistique: Joan's film, which she sees as an embarrassing declaration of her love for Abe, but doesn't earn much more than a flat "Huh" from everyone else. Well, except ''of course'' UsefulNotes/SigmundFreud.

After a student riot following a cross country meet destroys a large part of the school, Abe volunteers to organize a film festival for the students to pour their creativity and youthful energy into. Joan sees this as a perfect opportunity to declare her love for Abe, and recruits Genghis Khan to play him in her film, Ghandi ropes a reluctant George Washington Carver and his sentient peanut sidekick into starring in his Buddy Cop movie, and Cleo stars and directs an extravagant film centered on herself. Meanwhile, Scudworth gets into hot water with the Secret Board of Shadowy Figures due to the destruction caused by the riot, and finds himself forced to host a dinner for the group at his home. Wanting to impress, he and Mr Butlertron teams up to give the whole whole house a makeover.

* BadBadActing: ''Black And Tan'' has plenty. Not only does George Washington Carver keep putting the AcCENTUponTheWrongSylLABle, but Ghandi keeps glancing at the camera. To say nothing of [[DullSurprise the blonde guy Abe casts in his movie]].

* TheyFightCrime: Ghandi and Carvers movie ''Black And Tan'', which revolves around "a Harvard educated African American criminologist" and "a typical street smart Indian super cop". Carver's anthropomorphic peanut companion plays the villain Senor Peani.
