HEY, BREAK IT UP!
|
— Troy and Abed look-a-likes talking to Ben Chang and Jeff, "English as a Second Language". |
These Troy and Abed doppelgängers were campus security who worked at Greendale during the study group's first year together. Troy and Abed run afoul of them and both duos are shocked at their similarities. The doppelgängers first appearance was in the end tag of the Season One episode "Football, Feminism and You". They are portrayed by as Sashi Bommakanty as Abed's look-a-like and Bertrand Roberson Jr. as Troy's look-a-like. |
Character history[]
During their freshmen year at community college, Troy and Abed snuck into the administrations office to play a prank. They then started making announcements on the school's Public address system. Abed said all announcements would be cool from now on, Troy mentioned "butt soup" and Abed told Jeff he was not Hadji from "Johnny Quest". After Troy joked that campus security, two of them burst through the door of the office to put an end to the unauthorized broadcast. Much to everyone's surprise the campus security guards were Troy and Abed Look-a-likes. Everyone froze after both sides noticed the uncanny resemblance they had to each other. The Abed counterpart slowly raised his hand to say hello and the real Abed waved back hesitatingly ("Football, Feminism and You").
The duo was next seen at the end of the 2010 school year dealing with an altercation between Ben Chang and Jeff outside in the parking lot. The recently fired and now disgruntled former teacher Ben Chang was taking his anger out on Jeff's Lexus by beating it with his keytar. He assumed that Jeff was the one who revealed he had no teaching credentials and cost Chang his job. Jeff arrived to stop him and the two struggled over the keytar while on top of the car. The campus security duo warned them to break it up. When they refused, the security guards fired their tasers at both of them causing Jeff and Chang to fall off the Lexus onto the ground ("English as a Second Language").
Trivia[]
- The doppelgängers (under the names Troy-look-a-like and Abed-look-a-like) are erroneously credited as being in the Season One episode "Advanced Criminal Law".
- A similar scene to the tasing of Chang and Jeff in "English as a Second Language" was done in the Season Two episode "Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas" except this time it was done in stop-motion animation and it was Abed that got tased by the security guards. The guards themselves did not appear to be based on the doppelgängers.
