Harris is a very blatant one.

slides once they come to life are an example of this, due to Rigby's terrible picture taking skills.

* RealityEnsues: The portrait Mordecai paints looks good and everyone approves of it, but an abstract piece isn't fitting to put up in a professional Hall of Fame, so it's rejected in favor of another commissioned piece.

* {{Flanderization}}:
** Mordecai tries to get the basics of Benson's appearance down in his "mind's eye" and draws up how he's their boss, a former drummer, and likes stick hockey.
** The slides that emerge from the projector are all corrupted forms of an angry Benson, who are so mad that they actively want to kill Mordecai and Rigby.

* AppliedPhlebotinum: DoubleSubversion. When Rigby falls and drops dipping sauce over the projector it seems for a second the machine will do something, but it doesn't (Rigby even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] it), however a second later Rigby drops more dipping sauce, this time, the slides come to life.

Mordecai's art school past that was brought up in "Fool Me Twice" is explored a little here.
** Benson's occupation as a drummer and passion for stick hockey get mention. He's also briefly heard talking about Audrey.

** The slides that emerge from the projector are all corrupted forms of an angry Benson, who are so mad that they actively want to kill Mordecai and Rigby.
* InexplicablyAwesome:
** Rigby spilling his buttery pretzel on the projector (and then adding more sauce onto it) somehow causes the photography slides to come to life.
** Benny Harris comes out of the VCR containing a recording of his show to give the duo some sage advice. Mordecai, and by extension the show, can't determine if this is his ghost, a hologram, or some astral projection.
* KamehameHadoken: Mordecai does this to the Benson slides. With paint!paint!
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: As it usually goes for Mordecai and Rigby. This time, they're sent to pick up a portrait of Benson, and before they deliver it to Pops, Rigby accidentally drops his greasy pretzel on the painting.
