'''''Awkward''''', known also as ''The Awkward Compilation'', is a self-proclaimed "love letter to pop culture" -- a—a video series about the trials and tribulations of an awkward group of Asian-Canadian university students trying to find their own happy endings and getting in each others' way in the process. Geeky humour, occasional randomness, and the odd spontaneous musical number ensue. Prepare to [[Crowning Moment of Funny|laugh until you pee a little]].
 
Lester and Alex are housemates and friends. One day Lester walks in on Alex [[A Date with Rosie Palms|making time with his hand]] and a video of Lester on the toilet, and it becomes apparent that Alex's feelings for him are [[Ho Yay|a little more than "friendly"]]. In fact, a little more like [[Stalker with a Crush|"stalkerish and obsessive"]]. And by "a little" I mean "exactly". This makes things rough for everyone involved when Lester meets Steph...
Line 56:
* [[Description Cut]]: "I was reading a ''very'' intellectual book." Cut to Lester reading [[The Legend of Zelda (manga)|The Legend of Zelda]] manga.
* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: {{spoiler|Kevin and Dexter's sudden appearances during the showdown against Jermaine.}}
* [[Digging Yourself Deeper]]: Lester upon first meeting Steph -- "He's very green!" -- luckily—luckily he manages to stop before he digs himself too deep.
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: "I like it, it's all white and bubbly." And about half of everything Alex says.
{{quote|'''Alex:''' You know it's all about finding the right key. The one that fits... just right. The one that you insert deep into the ''back door''...}}
Line 62:
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Alex, in Awkward Origins. The scene is straight out of [[Titanic]].
* [[Dyeing for Your Art]]: Jermaine got his hair cut before filming specifically to look like a douche. He had to keep it that way for two months.
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Literally -- SigfriedLiterally—Sigfried the duck can be seen beside Lester's VCR in Awkward 1.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Jermaine has a particularly douchey one.
* [[Fake Video Camera View]]: Alex's hidden cameras, such as the Hero Cam a.k.a. {{spoiler|the [[The Legend of Zelda|Link]] plush doll}}.
Line 72:
** [[Mentors|The Mentor]]: Dexter
* [[Freudian Couch]]: Seen in Alex's "therapy" sessions.
* [[Groin Attack]]: Awkward 2 has two in quick succession; first Alex on Lester as part of a staged fight -- "How could I forget? It's like a cat tried to suck my dick." -- then—then Henry takes a run at Kevin in a truly eyewatering [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]].
{{quote|'''Henry:''' I'LL SHOW YOU GLASSES FUCK MOTHERFUCKER! '''*KICK*''' YEAAAAHH!!!}}
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Alex, just in time for a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment.}}
Line 108:
* [[Power Trio]]: Lester, Alex, and Kevin. Especially evident toward the end.
* [[Race For Your Love]]: Lester, in one of the final scenes of Awkward 6.
* [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]: Henry and Ernie's departure from the project following Awkward 4 resulted in their characters' disappearances and the appearance of some [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute|similar character types]] -- Henry—Henry (the therapist) is replaced with Dexter (the sage), and Ernie (the douche) with Jermaine (the mega-douche).
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Lester's favourite movie is Korean [[Romantic Comedy]] ''My Sassy Girl''.
