* FreezeFrameBonus: When David looks at his old photo from when he was a camper, you'll see [[Recap/CampCampS1E5JourneyToSpookyIsland Jasper]] standing right next to a young David in front of Cameron Campbell. This not only references the fact he was revealed to be DeadAllAlong at the end of his debut episode, but also hints at the fact that David ''knew him''.

* ComicallySmallBribe: Pikeman's side of TheBet with Campbell turns out to be this. If he and the Wood Scouts win then they get all of Camp Campbell's ground and campers, but if Camp Campbell wins the Wood Scouts hand over all their earnings from their yearly popcorn sales. The campers of Camp Campbell ''already'' have more to lose than to gain from this wager, but after they win Campbell gleefully reveals his winnings consisted of just $50.

* BittersweetEnding: Camp Campbell wins the Camporee and is saved from joining the Wood Scouts, but that is pretty much the only good thing. None of the campers care about their victory, the only lesson learned is to not work together instead of the one on teamwork that David was pushing for, and Gwen outright says she hates the camp. Even David feels sad about camp spirit being at an all-time low.

* AnAesop: The charitable interpretation of this episode's lesson would be "Focus on what makes you special."
* LittleMissBadass: The Flower Scouts prove to be a lot more formidable than previously shown. Among other things, they practice poise and proper walking form on a beam over a vat of acid.
* ShoutOut: When Petrol falls into the acid in the Flower Scouts' challenge, he [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay gives a thumbs-up before he sinks completely.]]
* SilkHidingSteel: The Flower Scouts may be girly to a fault, but their lethal-looking obstacle course testifies to their badassery.
