* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Sasha is at first fine with forming a band with Toadie, since his ExtremeDoormat nature has him blindingly agree with everything she suggests and lets her be in complete control, similar to how she was with Anne and Marcy on Earth. But this attitude of his quickly gets on her nerves to the point she wants him to share his actual opinions with her instead of just agreeing with everything she says.

* NotSoDifferentRemark: Implied. When Sasha explains that the only thing she wanted was that the girls to succeed with her, Toadie tells her that understands the feeling. This is because, in his last chapter, he was also trying to make Toadstool succeed and get the Captain of Toad Tower, with him. He knew how that felt, and he knew that it wasn't okay to be this controlling. So he tries to help her understand.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: The last time we see Toadie get some protagosnism, [[Recap/AmphibiaS2E28ToadToRedemption he was freaking out upset because Toadstool didn't want to accept his dream job, and was even controlling over that, and then passing out at the thought that the Mayor would leave him alone.]] Here, even when we see Toadie quite freaking out because he wasn't forming a band with the Mayor, he adjusted well with Sasha, and even he of all people taught Sasha the same lesson he had to learn in his last episode. This implies that Toadie, between chapters 28 and 35, came to terms that maybe is okay to let things go.

* ControlFreak: Sasha of course likes to be in control at all times, but the episode does give it a more sympathetic angle. Sasha admits to Toady that not being in control makes her crazy, and she even finds it exhausting sometimes.
