* [[Aesop Amnesia]]: Sharpay suffers from this, having apparently seen the error of her ways at the end of the first film, only to become nasty again at the beginning of the sequel. Repeat for the second and third films.
Line 23 ⟶ 24:
{{quote|'''Chad:''' Have you ever seen Michael Crawford on a cereal box?
'''Troy:''' Who's Michael Crawford?
'''Chad:''' Exactly my point!
** As for the question, how ''does'' Chad know who Michael Crawford is? {{spoiler|[[Hand Wave|Handwaved]] by having Chad explain that his mom put his picture in their fridge.}}
* [[Award Bait Song]] [[Softer and Slower Cover]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg6ar82KRfU We're All in This Together (Graduation Version)] from the third film.
* [[Be Yourself]]: ''Shocker!''.
* [[Bigger Is Better]]: And better, is bigger, [[Ear Worm|a little bit is never enough!]]
* [[Billy Elliot Plot]]: How the above message manifests itself, especially with Troy.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
* [[Blondes Are Evil]]: Sharpay.
* [[Captain Obvious Aesop]]: "Be yourself and don't bully others". Quite an revolutionary concept, wouldn't you agree?
* [[The Cheerleader]]: A mild version, but yet a scene in the first movie depicts cheerleaders as shallow, concerned only on having strong fingernails and guy's looks
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: Sharpay, who repeatedly thinks up plans to get Troy away from Gabriella and to become her boyfriend.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Is the only way to explain how Sharpay forgets the date of the Big Game in #3--it's an in-joke referencing her first line in #1.
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Sharpay. [[Aesop Amnesia|In each movie]].
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Stanford and Berkeley are rivals and in no way friendly, especially around football season.
* [[Drama Queen]]: Sharpay.
* [[Duet Bonding]]: Troy and Gabriella, twice.
* [[E=MC Hammer]]: Of course Gabriella has to be able to do the ridiculously complicated equation on the board ''in her head''. And then the teacher looks at the calculator for maybe two seconds before looking back up...
