Well, "together" is more of a exaggeration here: in truth, Joy has been hogging out responsibilitiesresponsibility as Riley's main emotion since Riley's birth. With time Joy has learnlearned what usefulness Fear, Disgust, and Anger have, but she cannot get on her mindunderstand what Sadness's role actually is, so she pushpushes Sadness away whenever possible.

Riley's first experiences with the city are not particularly positive ones, but Joy is extremely determined to keep Riley happy for all means possible, and this means isolating the girl from her other emotions, specially Sadness as the latter has gotten in a compulsion of touching all the girl memories and turning them sad.

{{Needs More Tropes}}
* An Aesop: Several, in fact:
** Don't bottle youyour emotions.
** IsnIt isn't bad to feel sad from time on time. It actually helps to connect with others.
** There are no such thing as "Bad emotions". Even emotionemotions with negative connotations have a reason to be, even if at the time it doesn't seem so.
** Telling people who seemsseem upset to smile or actually attempting to make them smile is not always the best approach and can even be counterproductive. Sometimes, just listening to them can do wonders.
** One for the parents: if your children seemsseem upset for some reason, it is a good idea to tell them that you are available to listen to their worries and then actually listen to them when expressing their emotions.
* [[All Psychology Is Freudian]]: downplayedDownplayed. While the "trauma" theory isn't used, Freud's ideas of the organization of the mind are.
* [[Amazing Technicolor Population]]: The emotions.
* [[Anthropomorphic Personification]]: Again, the emotions.
* [[Bumbling Dad]]: In the dinner scene, Riley's father ends up exacerbating the situation because he wasn't paying attention and misread his wife's cues on what was bothering her. OnIn the rest of the film he seems a genuinely good father, with this as his only slip.
* [[Character Development]]: deconstructedDeconstructed with the emotions, withwho due to their nature can't fundamentally change or develop. So their actual journey in the plot is they changinghow their relationships with each other change, namely {{spoiler|Joy realizing that her insistence on keeping Riley cheerful is actually making her unhappy, and that letting other emotions intervene from time on time is the wisest way to go}}.
* [[Chekhov's Skill]]: Joy's insistence on havethat Sadness read the manuals to keep her away actually pays off when they are both trapped in the maze-like long -term memory area and Sadness is therthe only one capable toof navigatenavigating the area.
* [[Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: Literally: {{color|Joy|yellow}} is yellow, {{color|Sadness|blue}} is blue, {{color|Anger|red}} is red, {{color|Disgust|green}} is green and {{Color|Fear|purple}} is purple. This turns out to be consistent with all the setsets of emotions we see in other characters, and with the memory orbs we see in the film. {{Spoiler|At the end of the film}}
