* [[Acceptable Targets|Acceptable Target]]: Stacey Dillsen. Even [[Canon Sue|Zoey]] doesn't really treat her like a person.
* [[Can You Hear Me Now?]]: So much of the drama Zoey and Chase went through could have been avoided if Zoey had just called Chase on his cell phone instead of wandering around looking for him all day.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Rebecca could arguably be considered this, at least within [[Dan Schneider]]'s standards. She dates Chase at the beginning of Season 3 and seems sweet at first, until we discover that she is out to keep him from ever talking to Zoey. When Chase finds out about this and dumps her, she ultimately becomes this when she gets ahold of Zoey's secret, threatens to expose it if she doesn't follow her orders, and forces Zoey to wear a banana suit and walk around campus (because she knew that Lola revealed that she was scared of people in costumes). She does get a nice kick in the ass from karma (see below), but still, Quinn put it right...

Line 15:
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] : ''Every'' time they show boys and girls hanging out in each others' dorm areas... [[Teen Pregnancy|what could possibly happen]]?
** In the Episode "Time Capsule," the teacher says that in 20 years people will be laughing at their clothes. Lola says that their clothes will always be cute- and although their clothes were in style back then, now they are completely out of style.
*** [[Fridge Brilliance]]: That means they're right on schedule to be [[Popularity Polynomial|back in style 20 years after the airdate]].
** In the same episode, Zoey mentions that she hopes they stil have DVDs in the future. With the subsequent invention of bluray it's funny
* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: all of the characters in the series (with the exception of Dustin) fall into this. Among the females Lola seems to fall into this and among the males Chase and Logan share this trait
Line 22:
** It's a grave offense of the highest order to disagree with her.
* [[Strangled by the Red String]]: In a rarely done ''good'' example, Logan and Quinn. They suddenly fall in love midway through the final season despite having little to no interaction before, and actually end up a very good couple.
** There ''was'' the whole free throw subplot in "Chase's Girlfriend". They had some nice [[Slap Slap Kiss]] chemistry there. Even though they didn't kiss, this troper wouldn't have been surprised if they had.
** Zoey and James. He gets intoduced in an episode and everyone instantly loves him, except Micheal and Logan, who still miss Chase. So in the end after everyone thought they were dating because they interacted, the end the episode with them getting together despite having no chemistry. Sort of Deconstructed as she later realizes she doesn't actually love him. It was still terribly executed and lead to the series' [[Seasonal Rot]].
* [[Tear Jerker]]: There was one this troper remembers about the end that shows Zoey's Text Machine right beside the fountain with Chase's email saying 'I Love you' sent, but it falls down to the water as it rumbles, and short circuts.
