** technically Chang is the first to be taken out, but since that was in the cliffhanger of the previous episode....

* [[Brick Joke]]: Throughout the first half of the episode, Jeff fights with Troy over leadership of the resistance. The dean even believes that Jeff will be the one to save the day. {{spoiler|Guess who's the first member of the study group who gets eliminated?}}

* [[Call Back]]: Oh boy...

* [[The Cameo]]: Busy Phillips and Dan Byrd from ''[[Cougar Town]]'' are seen briefly among the extras after Greendale wins. It's a [[Call Back]] to the episode where Abed says he was a background extra on the set of that show.

* [[Chekhov's Skill]]: Super-plumbing

* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Pop what, Magnitude? Pop WHAT?

** Abed didn't understand that no one likes the [[Star Wars]] genre shift.

* [[Died in Your Arms Tonight]]: {{spoiler|Magnitude.}}

** {{spoiler|But, you know, with paint. Pretendsies dropping of bridge.}}

* [[Evil Gloating]]: A confused Dean Pelton needs Dean Spreck to do this:

But if you need to explain it to your men I will understand! }}

** "We win!" {{spoiler|Shirley}}

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: The shot of City College raising their flag (a tall building flanked by two shorter ones) over the Greendale flag (an anus). It looks like [http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll45zfhMva1qjagpco1_500.png this].

* [[The Hero]]: Jeff and Troy fight over who should assume the role. {{spoiler|They both end up being a [[Decoy Protagonist]].}}

* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Magnitude}}

*** {{spoiler|[[Not Quite Dead]]}}: "For Greendale!"

* [[Hollywood Tactics]]: Jeff's plan to frontally assault a [[More Dakka|machine gun]].

* [[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy]]: The City College Stormtroopers make their kills through sheer weight of numbers (and a conveniently placed Paintball turret) rather than anything approaching accuracy.

* [[Ironic Echo]]: Within the space of ten seconds.

'''Abed:''' You're already dead. }}

* [[It's Been Done]]: Annie and everyone else consider the idea of a ''[[Star Wars]]'' [[Whole-Plot Reference]] played-out.

* [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: Vickieeeeee!!!!

* [[Mission Briefing]]: See above picture.

* [[More Dakka]]: See [[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy]].

* [[Now or Never Kiss]]: {{spoiler|Abed and Annie after they've both run out of ammo and are about to be eliminated.}}

* [[Oh Crap]]:

* [[Old Soldier]]: Leonard:

* [[Opening Scroll]]: It's about four sentences long.

* [[Operation Blank]]: Increasing passive aggressive iteration between Jeff and Troy.

* [[Opposing Combat Philosophies]]: Jeff and Troy have two different plans on to how to defeat City College. Annie merges them into one.

* [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner]]: The end of the game.

{{spoiler|'''Pierce:'''}} Your mother's lover. (shoots him) }}

* [[The Quisling]]: Pierce offers to give any information about Jeff Winger to Dean Spreck in exchange for not being shot. They turn out to be only things that Pierce made up to make Jeff seem gay, and not anything of real tactical value.

* [[Redshirt Army]]: Jeff leads this along with Britta and a few recurring characters against the ice cream truck.

** [[Fridge Brilliance]]: "Remember the New Guy" is, itself, a paradox.

* [[Self-Deprecation]]:

** [[Dan Harmon]] shows up on an admissions poster and is called a loser.

** At the end of the episode, Britta suggested that they take Anthro 201 next semester, and Abed said it was too risky because 'sequels are always disappointing'. This can both be a reference to the Star Wars franchise, and the episode itself, which was a sequel to a [[Sequel Episode]].

* [[Scenery Gorn]]: They ''really'' trashed the school.

** [[Beat Them At Their Own Game]]: Which Troy makes the most of by filling the school's sprinkler system with paint.
