''Vector'' (2010) is a [[Darker and Edgier]] turn in the [[Tracy Moore Productions]] catalog. A [[Super OCD]] mailman becomes suspicious when he finds a [[Mad Scientist Laboratory|bio lab]] on his route. When the people on his route become sick, he must balance his family and his investigation as he uncovers horrific evidence connected to a bioterrorist.

=== [[[Tracy Moore Productions]]] contains examples of: ===

* [[Aerith and Bob]]: Fubee Snopatropalopolis and her best friends, Adam and Becky.
Line 41:
** Stan the Zucchini Gardener in ''Slick.''
* [[Completely Missing the Point]]: Invoked by Felix in ''Special Delivery'' as he and Robert have a [[Seinfeldian Conversation]] {{spoiler|to provide a distraction while Kathy goes to investigate a strange noise.}}
{{quote| '''Felix:''' Like I was saying, young chap, if you are ever galloping through the woods and you see a smallish girl picking her nose with a large '''twig''', do you (A) put a pot on your head and you look like [[Johnny Appleseed]] and really deep down, believing it inside, or (B) book the nearest flight to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, or maybe even (C) throw on some pajamas that have bamboo print on them, only to be mauled by a giant [[Everything's Worse Withwith Bears|koala bear.]]<br />
'''Robert:''' Don't you mean [[Pandaing to Thethe Audience|panda bears?]] Because pandas eat bamboo, and koalas actually eat mostly eucalyptus leaves.<br />
'''Felix:''' My dear boy, you are ''entirely'' missing my point. }}
* [[Creepy Doll]]: One of the things Slick pulls out in the epic pickpocket duel.
Line 58:
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Regina gets a very [[Chewing the Scenery|hammy]] one when she {{spoiler|kills the Queen.}}
* [[Face Palm]]: Fubee gets an epic one when she realizes {{spoiler|what the "Trust Double" clue means.}}
{{quote| '''Fubee:''' Oh. ([[Face Palm]])<br />
'''Carla:''' What is it?<br />
'''Fubee:''' It spells {{spoiler|Fake.}}<br />

* [[Five Five Five555]]: Carla's phone number in ''Fubee'' is one of these, naturally.
* [[Fridge Logic]]: ''Heir in the Window'' is full of it. Why is the Queen vacationing in New York, in a small house, with only two security guards and an eccentric maid for company?
* [[Good Cop, Bad Cop]]: Parodied and Subverted. Slick and Jeremy try to pull one on Judge Janelle in ''Slick'', but they both want to be the bad cop, so they end up just both shouting at her. And it doesn't matter, because the Brainwashing has worn off and she's perfectly willing to cooperate.
{{quote| '''Jeremy:''' Who are you working for?<br />
'''Slick:''' ''(muttering)'' Get outta here, Jeremy. ''(full volume)'' You're gonna talk either way.<br />
'''Jeremy:''' I thought I was gonna be the bad cop.<br />
'''Slick:''' You're not gonna be the bad cop; I'm gonna be the bad cop.<br />
'''Jeremy:''' Well then who's the good cop?<br />
'''Slick:''' I'm not the good cop! You be the good cop; you're a pansy.<br />
'''Jeremy:''' I came up with the idea in the first place!<br />
'''Slick:''' Fine. Then we'll ''both'' be the bad cop. Gimme the glasses.<br />
''(Both don 3D glasses)''<br />
'''Jeremy:''' What's your Social Security Number?<br />
'''Slick:''' Where were you last Tuesday at 10:27 p.m.?<br />
'''Jeremy:''' Have you eaten at the new Chinese restaurant on Sixth Street?<br />
'''Slick:''' If you were to remove a single flavor of Pringles, which one would it be?<br />
'''Jeremy:''' Have you ever walked a mile with your arms tied behind your back?<br />
'''Slick:''' Have you ever seen Jeremy tie people's shoelaces together? It's freaky!<br />
'''Slick:''' ''(pulling off 3D glasses and getting down on one knee, in a plaintive wail)'' WHY DID THE YANKEES EVER TRADE FOR A-ROD? }}
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: The original DVD's of the movie are in very short supply.
* [[Large Ham]]: Regina and Felix, as mentioned above, as well as Herb when he's acting in ''Slick''.
** ''Special Delivery'' also gives us Priscilla, one of Cheryl's patients.
