Line 291:
** In "Beyond the Alley of the Dolls", {{spoiler|Charlie Ho-Tep}} gets a double dose of petard-hoisting. He is ultimately destroyed when {{spoiler|Max tricks him into destroying the Devil's Toybox}}. He was only able to destroy it because he transformed into {{spoiler|the Cthonic Destroyer}} to fight Max. In addition, he was tricked into attacking {{spoiler|the Toybox}} by way of Max using the {{spoiler|Psychic Ventriloquism power}}. That happens to be {{spoiler|''Charlie Ho-Tep's own power''}}.
* [[How We Got Here]]: The first half of "Night of the Raving Dead". {{spoiler|Subverted in "The Penal Zone"}}
* [[Human Outside, Alien Inside|Human Outside, Inhuman Inside]]: Inverted, Dr. Norrington said that The Great Old Ones are identical to humans, and by extension animal life on the inside. "We save the weird stuff for the outside".
* [[Hypnotic Head]]: When Sam is hypnotized in "Culture Shock".
* [[Hypocritical Heartwarming]]: Max has constantly given Sam a hard time, mocking him even back when they were children, but he won't stand for anyone else doing the same. It's apparent that he only teases him because he thinks he's too shy and wants him to come out of his shell, though, and wants to get a reaction from the usually reserved Sam.
Line 471:
*** In addition, when you examine the tunnel next to the Dispenser, Sam notes that there are [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Payload cart tracks] in the tunnel. Max speculates that there might be [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Goldrush gold] at the end of it.
** In 305, you encounter another one of Skun-Ka'Pe's minions, named Gra-Pea'Pe. If you remove all the [[Punctuation Shaker]] elements, (the same method Sam uses to turn the name Skun-Ka'Pe into "Skunkape" or "Skunk Ape"), you get "Grapeape", or "Grape Ape".
* [[Shown Their Work]]: In 305, Agent Superball briefly mentions the 28th Amendment. There are currently only 27 amendments to the Constitution.
* [[Show Some Leg]]: Horrifyingly enough, done by Max as a distraction in the Season 2 finale:
{{quote|'''Sam:''' Max, distract {{spoiler|Hugh Bliss}} for me!
'''Max:''' Oh dear, I seem to be ''[[Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal|completely naked]]''. I hope I don't have to ''bend over provocatively'' and--
'''Sam:''' That's enough, Max. }}
* [[Shown Their Work]]: In 305, Agent Superball briefly mentions the 28th Amendment. There are currently only 27 amendments to the Constitution.
* [[The Smurfette Principle]] -- Sybil Pandemik in Season 1, new C.O.P.S. recruit Carol in ''The Devil's Playhouse'' (at least, according to the other members).
* [[So Long, Suckers!]]: Done twice in "The Penal Zone". Gets its due lampshade the second time:
Line 500:
** [[Lampshaded]] (if it's possible to lampshade a [[Stealth Pun]]) by Max when Sybil explains that she's still getting checks from being Queen of Canada.
{{quote|'''Max:''' Oh, ROYALTIES. I get it.}}
* [[The Stinger]]: Episode 305 has at least two of them that can be triggered after the credits roll, {{spoiler|both covering how Max is still there when the next season comes out}}.
* [[The Straight Man]]: This is the main reason {{spoiler|Charlie Ho-Tep creates an army of Sam's Clones; because, as a Dummy, he needed a straight man and Sam is perfect for that job.}}
* [[Straw Feminist]]: Bosco's mother. She is not very obnoxious though, and merely wants to make babies without a man, preferring the baby to be an angelic little ''she''.
* [[Strange Minds Think Alike]]: When trying to crack the code on Bosco's laser grid keypad, Max suggests that Sam should make the display read "BOOBIES" for a lark. It turns out that the code actually ''is'' 5318008, much to Sam's chagrin.
* [[Straw Feminist]]: Bosco's mother. She is not very obnoxious though, and merely wants to make babies without a man, preferring the baby to be an angelic little ''she''.
* [[The Stinger]]: Episode 305 has at least two of them that can be triggered after the credits roll, {{spoiler|both covering how Max is still there when the next season comes out}}.
* [[Stripped to the Bone]]: {{spoiler|The great-grandpas of Sam and Max are skeletonized by moleman magic at the end of Episode 302.}}
* [[Suck E. Cheese's]]: Ted E. Bear's Mafia-Free Playland and Casino
Line 541:
'''Elf''': ...You've got to be kidding. }}
* [[Taking You with Me]]: {{spoiler|Max}} goes out with a bang, but he doesn't do it alone.
* {{spoiler|[[Tear Jerker]]:}} {{spoiler|The ending for 305. Max dies, and doesn't get better.}}
** When Papierwaite tells Sam that {{spoiler|Max's tumor became infected with dark matter and they won't be able to operate normally}}, instead of stepping back from the problem and trying to think of a solution like he normally would, he weakly, almost childishly, asks if Papierwaite can "make it better." This being [[Sam and Max]], he obviously immediately follows with another hilarious quip; but he sounds so defeated when he says this, it cranks Sam's [[The Woobie|woobie]] factor [[Up to Eleven]].
* [[Temporal Paradox]]: {{spoiler|One of these is used to explain how Max will still be there when another season arrives. The problem is, Past Max also talks about having to go through on Sam what present Sam had to go through on Max, making you wonder, how exactly ''is'' Sam alive in Season 3 if what past Max says is true?}}
** It seems that, in the Sam and Max universe, time travel works off a divergent timeline kind of a deal. However, this is contradicted by the whole thing with {{spoiler|Bosco.}}
