History Recap / AdventureTimeS4E25IRememberYou

* ShoutOut: Jake's delivery of the line "Your constant harassment of the female gender makes me sick" is an impression of Diedrich Bader as Batman in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold''.

* IncestSubtext: Unintended on Ice King's part, since he doesn't remember, but Marceline sees Simon as a surrogate father, which adds an extra layer of heartbreak and {{Squick}} when the Ice King comes on to her after they hug.

* WhamLine:

* WistfulAmnesia: Ice King can't remember ever being Simon, but still senses that he has a "tortured past".

* AdultFear: Knowing you're going insane and that you're dangerous to those who love you.
* BrokenBird: One of Marceline's saddest moments in the series, It's revealed that her actions in her debut episode [[spoiler:were because she can't stand to see Simon in the current state he is in.]]

** When Ice King sings one of Marceline's songs, it hints that he used to hang out with her.

* CerebusRetcon: The reason why [[Recap/AdventureTimeS1E12Evicted Marceline keeps changing places]] is because she has to flee a Simon who can't remember her.

* DownerEnding: Ends with Marceline singing the song written by Simon with The Ice King, while sobbing after trying the whole second half of the episode to make the Ice King remember who he was. He doesn't, she just cries as they both sing, Ice King completely oblivious to the situation, and it cuts to a Happy Flashback of Marceline when she was a crying little girl alone just after the apocalypse. Simon finds her, wipes her tears, and gives her the teddy bear she loses in "Memory of a Memory".
* FreezeFrameBonus: Marceline shows the Ice King a picture of his old self, Simon Petrikov, from a newspaper clipping about him. In the picture, Simon is holding the Heroes' Enchiridion.
* IncestSubtext: Unintended on Ice King's part, since he doesn't remember, but Marceline sees Simon as a surrogate father, which adds an extra (and extra heartbreaking) layer of {{Squick}} when the Ice King comes on to her.
