* GardenOfEden: Many of the usual tropes are in play, as we see a kindly old man allowing two people to use a paradise he created as long as they don't break one rule, only for the garden to be corrupted by an outside influence. Drastically subverted in that the benevolent God-like figure turns out to be a Neo-Nazi.

[[AC:[[RoboCam Current Synopsis]]]]: Troy and Jeff discover a hidden trampoline of tranquility and Pierce will stop at nothing to learn their secret. Meanwhile the ladies enroll in a Women Studies course and Abed tags along. When the ladies are humiliated by a clique, they use Abed's ability to analyze humans to get revenge. This may be too much of a good thing in both situations.
