=== This novel is an example of the following tropes: ===
* [[Always Identical Twins]]: Barry and Harry, of course.
* [[Diary]]: Harry keeps one while {{spoiler|spending a year inside the Playhouse}}.
Line 16:
* [[Portal Pool]]: When filled with water, the sink in the Playhouse shows images of another universe.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Athletic, popular and pushy, Barry, is Red Oni to timid, book-smart and rational, Harry's Blue Oni.
* [[Two Guys and Aa Girl]]: Harry, Barry and Lucy.
* [[Year Inside, Hour Outside]]: Time on the "outside" passes extremely slowly while in the Playhouse.
