Mystery Science Theater 3000/Recap/S05/E07 I Accuse My Parents
Films watched: The Truck Farmer (short) and I Accuse My Parents
The Mystery Science Theater 3000 presentation provides examples of:
- Become a Real Boy and Pinocchio Syndrome: Lampshaded in the opening host segment, where Tom tries to become a real boy, but eventually realizes it would suck.
- If I Can't Have You
Servo: (as Blake, to Kitty) No one's gonna take you away from me. Not even me, see! I'll kill me before that happens.
- I'll Take Two Beers, Too!: Jimmy orders two champagne cocktails when he first goes to see Kitty at the club, one ostensibly being for her, but it leads to this:
Waiter: Two, sir?
Joel: Yeah, and put 'em in one of those big Slurpee glasses.
- Motor Mouth: "AslongasItalkreallyfastanddowhathesaysI'mgonnabeOK."
- Running Gag: Many, including...
- Jimmy winning the essay contest.
- Jimmy's birthday.
- Joel and the Bots coming up with even more ridiculous lies than the ones Jimmy says in the movie, some of them relating to WWII.
- "Liar! Liar! Liar!"
- His mother's alcoholism.
- Hamburgers with a french-fried potatoes garnish.
- Quacking every time the door opens and a picture of ducks appears in the background.
- Shout-Out: Crow blurts out "was you ever bit by a dead bee" during the dinner scene, when Kitty is in maximum Lauren Bacall mode. This is a nod to Bacall's first movie, To Have and Have Not.
