* Alternately, coworker Charlie makes a food run and brings back a large softdrink for Bob.
* Zig Zagged: ???
* Parodied: Bob is seen sitting next to a massive container of coffee with an IV drip in his arm.
* Deconstructed: Bob develops kidney problems from drinking such excessive quantities.
* Reconstructed: ???
* Averted: Bob doesn't want to spend the money/risk the calories on such a large drink.
* Enforced: The bucket-sized cup is a new Gag Gift from the show's sponsors.
* Lampshaded: Bob tells Alice he has an all-night project, then asks her to fill up "Gargantua".
* Invoked: Alice, anticipating that Bob would hit an all-night deadline in the near future, gives him a bucket-sized cup as a gift.
* Defied: Upon hearing that Bob has to pull an all-nighter, Alice smashes Bob's bucket-sized cup.
* Discussed: ???
* Conversed: ???
* Played For Laughs:
* Bob drinks from his bucket-sized cup of coffee, but ends up too hyperactive to actually get the report done.
* Bob downs the entire bucket in one gulp, then finishes in half a second during the Caffeine Bullet Time. He then proceeds to finish the backlog of work he hadn't finished, and fill the next month's quota, too... all before 3:00 AM. And then promptly falls asleep.
* Played For Drama: Bob drinks from his bucket-sized cup of coffee, then falls over from cardiac arrest. Back to Gigantic Gulp
