History Recap / TheAmazingWorldOfGumballS3E25ThePizza

* UngratefulTownsfolk: The town of Elmore. They take Larry for granted, barely acknowledge his existence as a person, and have the nerve to turn against him when he rightfully quits. Even the ''[[PoliceAreUseless police force]]'' are involved.

* DirtyCop: The Donut Cop is among those partaking in the riots, all because he didn't earn his paycheck from Larry.

* NotSoAboveItAll: Alan ends up as part of Mr. Small's gang of cannibals.

* UngratefulBastard: ''Everyone in town'' are ungrateful jerks to Larry, the Wattersons in particular, to the point where they barely acknowledge his existence as a person.

* BystanderSyndrome: Since Donut Cop isn't getting his paycheck (Larry was the department accountant), he decides to ''participate'' in the looting [[PoliceAreUseless instead of doing anything about it.]]

** Larry asked Gumball "[[AmbiguousSyntax How about a tip?]]", but he mistook it to be an offer instead of a request, so he pulls money ''out'' of the jar.

* AnAesop: It's okay to be angry, but don't take it out on people who don't deserve it.

-->'''Nicole:''' You're a worthless maggot, a pointless little--

* AnAesop: It's okay to be angry, but don't take it out on innocent people.

* MuggingTheMonster: A gang of cannibals (Tobias and his family, Alan, Carmen's dad, Principal Brown, and Mr. Small) attack the Watterson family, with Mr. Small even invoking "survival of the fittest" as they do so. Nicole easily beats them all to a pulp, and given Mr. Small gave her anger management classes in "The Club" (in which she once threw him out the door window and into a wall as soon as she came in), he '''''really''''' should have seen it coming.

* NoPartyLikeADonnerParty: A gang is formed that hunts and [[BlackComedyCannibalism tries to eat]] anyone who steps into their territory. Its membership includes Tobias's parents (Jackie channeling Luther from ''The Warriors'' and her husband, Harold, on a leash and acting like a feral dog), Carmen's dad, Principal Brown, Leslie, ''[[IncorruptiblePurePureness Alan]]'', and even '''[[StrawVegetarian Mr. Small]]''' ("I ran out of tofu and soy milk..."), who will only eat the Wattersons if they don't have antibiotics in them [[EveryoneHasStandards since he prefers his meat organic]].

-->''I'm so hungry I can't even hallucinate right.''

* HeroicBSOD: After putting up with abuse from everyone and the Watterson in particular, Larry finally gives up in face of their ridiculous pizza order. He quits all his jobs and mentions leaving Elmore entirely, though he's still just sitting around in despair in front of the pizza place when the Wattersons find him.

* LeftTheBGMOn: The nuclear siren sound heard right after Larry quits is revealed to be Richard whining about the family not being able to get their pizza.

-->'''Larry:''' Why are you guys here? And why are you dressed that way?\\

* TheApunkalypse: The outfits people start wearing include lots of leather, goggles, pointy hair, [[PostApunkalypticArmor sports equipment, spikes hats, armored helmet]], face paint, and eye-patches, all references to the ''Film/MadMax'' movies and ''Film/TheWarriors''.

* {{Bowdlerization}}: Despite the entire episode being violent and filled with threat and horror (and therefore ripe for censorship) due to the apocalyptic chaos, the version shown on Cartoon Network Asia is edited to remove the part where Nicole grabs Leslie, bites down on his petal, and uses him as a flail against Carmen's dad while Leslie screams in pain.
