Line 35:
* [[Depending on the Writer]]: Timon's greediness for money and power varied from episode to episode. Sometimes he didn't care about money, just as long as he could get a meal.
* [[Failure Is the Only Option]]: In "Hot Air Buffoons" Timon and Pumbaa won a hot air balloon race, [[Fridge Logic|but then lost when "a new winner" landed, even though he came second]].
* [[Fartillery]]: Pumbaa eventually suggests using this method to expel Timon from his body during the [[Fantastic Voyage Plot]] section of "Beetle Romania"; needless to say, [[This Is Gonna Suck Timon's reaction to said suggestion]] is ''priceless''.
* [[Feud Episode]]: The episode "Kenya Be My Friend?" has Timon and Pumbaa parting ways and eventually befriending each other's opposites: Monti and Baampu.
* [[Flanderization]]: For instance, Rafiki ''always'' bops people on the head with his stick when trying to get advice through their heads.
Line 43 ⟶ 44:
** In "Island of Manhood", one of the things Timon must do to pass the manhood test is carry a backpack with a ton of things on top of it.
* [[Hilarity Ensues]]
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Near the end of the episode "[[Fantastic Voyage Plot|Beetle Romania]]", Timon becomes positively ''enraged'' by how "[[Insufferable Genius|intellectually superior]]" Pumbaa starts acting (and also being) after he (Timon) sneaks into his brain and turns it back on; not only is Timon getting angry at someone that '''he''' caused Pumbaa to turn into, but he also is the one that normally acts smart ([[Know-Nothing Know-It-All|but clearly]] ''[[Know-Nothing Know-It-All|isn't]]'' [[Know-Nothing Know-It-All|smart]]) between himself and Pumbaa (in fact, he turns Pumbaa's brain back off purely because he doesn't want to admit the fact that Pumbaa has become smarter than him...and also [[Does This Remind You of Anything|to get him to stop boasting about himself]]). Luckily, Timon is '''[[Laser-Guided Karma|severely]]''' [[Hoist By His Own Petard|punished]] [[Here We Go Again|for this]].
* [[Illogical Safe]]: A [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqifngsT94U short in which Pumbaa suffers a run of bad luck] has this happening to Pumbaa -- and then, as soon as he's out of the safe, it happens again with a ''space capsule''.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: Happens in Brazil Nuts when [[Balloon Belly|"Fat" Timon]] makes a pun about how long it is taking to get ants, and claims they "must be after the uncles, too!" He finds that nobody heard the pun, but Pumbaa runs in to warn about Ralph and Eddie eating them.
Line 49 ⟶ 51:
* [[Kangaroo Court]]: There is no other name for the trial of Timon, accused of touching the [[Forbidden Fruit|Forbidden Stick]], when the judge ''makes up new laws whenever he wants''.
{{quote|''"It is hereby illegal to tell me to 'chill out!'"''}}
* [[Literal Minded]]: [[Irony|Despite calling himself "the brains of the outfit"]], Timon somehow manages to be ignorant enough to apply this trope to Smart Pumbaa telling him that he is "in a pickle" during the "[[Brain With a Manual Control brain]]" part of "[[FantasticVoyagePlot Beetle Romania]]".
* [[Name and Name]]
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: [[Ironic Nickname|Speedy The Snail]] is [[Bing Crosby]].
