History Recap / LiloAndStitchTheSeriesS2E2Frenchfry

--> '''Jumba:''' Because, once you are properly fattened up, ''[[ImAHumanitarian he will try to eat you]]''!

* DropTheHammer: Frenchfry is about to kill Lilo and Stitch with a meat tenderizer before Nani comes to save them.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: As it's a cartoon, the kind of weight gain seen is obviously impossible in real life, which is {{lampshade|Hanging}}d by Nani after hearing from Moses that Lilo had turned round and grown a few times bigger within just a few hours. In addition to turning round, Lilo, Stitch, and Gantu also become as bouncy as rubber balls after putting on weight, and they roll. Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate, if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he becomes a giant, immobile pile of fat.

* FailedASpotCheck: Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley spend a few hours eating Frenchfry's food, quickly causing them to turn round and grow a few times bigger, but they don't notice how fat they are until Lilo jumps off her chair and starts bouncing.

* NeverMyFault: Pleakley tries to deny that his, Lilo’s, and Stitch’s weight gain is caused by their overeating for as long as possible. Subverted with Lilo, who immediately guesses that Frenchfry’s food is what turned them round. She believes Pleakley’s explanation that their transformation was caused by the sun, but accepts that the food is what caused after going to hula class and seeing that nobody else has bloated.

* YouAreFat: Moses gently asks if Lilo has been eating okay, as she's looking "a little round". However, Gantu doesn't waste any time mocking Stitch when he finds him too fat to fit through a door, asking mockingly if he's put on a little weight.

* NeverMyFault: Pleakley tries to deny that his, Lilo’s, and Stitch’s weight gain is caused by their overeating for as long as possible. Subverted with Lilo, who immediately guesses that Frenchfry’s food is what turned them round. She believes Pleaklry’s explanation that their transformation was caused by the sun, but accepts that the food is what caused after going to hula class and seeing that nobody else has bloated.

* NeverMyFault: Pleakley, Lilo, and Stitch try to deny that their weight gain is caused by their overeating for as long as possible.

* TornadoMove: Frenchfry can turn into a miniature grey tornado, much like Taz from Looney Tunes.

* WeightTaller: As Frenchfry fattens them up, Lilo and Stitch grow until they're the same height as Nani. Pleakley ends up being at least 20 feet tall.

* CharacterCatchphrase: Frenchfry says “Bon appétit” whenever he makes someone food.

* GoneHorriblyRight: Jumba wanted a cook who could make delicious meals, and he got one, alright, only said cook wants to eat anybody he cooks for. In the present, Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley's wish for unlimited healthy food is granted, but they end up obese and practically helpless by the time Frenchfry decides to eat them.
* GratuitousFrench: Frenchfry speaks French, but the only French words he speaks in the episode are some of the stereotypical ones known to Americans, such as “Bon appétit” and “Sacré bleu”.

* GratuitousFrench: Frenchfry speaks French, but the only French words he speaks in the episode are some of the stereotypical ones known to Americans.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: As it’s a cartoon, the kind of weight gain seen is obviously impossible in real life, which is [[LampshadedTrope lampshaded]] by Nani after hearing from Moses that Lilo had turned round and grown a few times bigger within just a few hours. In addition to turning round, Lilo, Stitch, and Gantu also become as bouncy as rubber balls after putting on weight, and they roll. Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate, if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he becomes a giant, immobile pile of fat.

* BigEater: Anybody who eats Frenchfry’s food becomes this since his food is designed to never fill anyone who eats it, so they become addicted to stuffing themselves to satiate a never-satisfied hunger.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Frenchfry has a cheerful, eager-to-please attitude and makes Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley all the food they want, but he’s secretly scheming to cook them and eat them as soon as he’s done fattening them up.
* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The family does need to eat healthier as Nani points out, but her gelatin meal is hardly appetizing and it’s no wonder the kids don’t want to eat it.

* FailedASpotCheck: Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley spend a few hours eating Frenchfry’s food, quickly causing them to turn round and grow a few times bigger, but they don’t notice how fat they are until Lilo jumps off her chair and starts bouncing.

* HeKnowsTooMuch: Frenchfry cuts the phone line when Jumba reveals his true intentions to Lilo, and only then decides to go ahead and eat Lilo and Stitch. If Pleakley and Jumba’s sizes are any indication, he wasn’t planning to stop fattening Lilo and Stitch for some time, but learning of his scheme meant he needed to drop the act before help could arrive.
* HeavyVoice: After gorging himself into a blob the size of a two-story room, Pleakley’s voice is ''much'' deeper and thicker.

** Frenchfry traps Lilo and Stitch in a couple of relatively weak pens, which they get stuck in because of how big they are, and they’re unable to free themselves due to being so fat they can hardly move.

* IAmBigBoned: Pleakley's theory on why him, Lilo, and Stitch are bloated is because of the sun emitting an unusual number of highly-charged particles, or allergies from something in Frenchfry's food. He's [[SarcasmMode definitely not fat from eating too much junk food]], no sir.

* KidsHateVegetables: Lilo and Stitch are both disgusted by the healthy foods that Nani is trying to get them on at the episode's start: While their hating the oatmeal was just kids being kids, it's hard to fault them for wanting nothing to do with those unappetizing vegetable-studded gelatin ready-made meals that Nani stocks up on. This leads Lilo and Stitch to activate Experiment 062 so he can make much tastier junk food for them, unaware of just how dangerous 062/Frenchfry really is.

* MamaBear: Nani returns to save Lilo and Stitch and fights tooth and nail to protect her little sister, although she admits she's no longer "little" in one sense.

** Frenchfry is convinced to stop eating sapient beings when he tries some of Nani’s healthy food and likes it, and is convinced that there are other delicious foods worthwhile.

* WeakWilled: Anyone who eats Frenchfry’s food will be completely unable to resist eating more of it. Best shown when Frenchfry brings Lilo and Stitch a big plate of donuts. Lilo and Stitch agree that they shouldn’t eat them, then immediately eat all the donuts, anyway.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Already morbidly obese, Pleakley weakly cries, "Oh no! Not the corn dogs! I can’t resist the corn dogs!" when Frenchfry presents him with some, too weak of will to resist gobbling them up.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Already morbidly obese, Pleakley weakly cries, "Not the corn dogs! Anything but the corn dogs!" when Frenchfry presents him with some, too weak of will to resist gobbling them up.

Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate, if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he becomes a giant, immobile pile of fat.

* IAmBigBoned: Pleakley's theory on why they're bloating up is because of allergies from something in the air or in Frenchfry's food. He's [[SarcasmMode definitely not fat from eating too much junk food]], no sir.

* MagicPants: After Frenchfry fattens up Lilo's body to twenty times its usual size, her dress somehow stretches to fit her. It also shrinks back to its normal size after Lilo goes back to normal. Gantu's clothes also stretch after Frenchfry makes him fat. Pleakley's dress grows with him at first, but after Frenchfry has made him enormously obese, he's seen without it.

* AloneWithThePsycho:
** Lilo leaves for hula class with Stitch, leaving Pleakley with Frenchfry's undivided attention and cooking. By the time they get back home, Pleakley is a colossal blob.
** Once Lilo and Stitch realize that Frenchfry is fattening them up so he can eat them, Frenchfry has entered the room, and they are both so fat, they can’t do anything to stop him and he easily traps them.

** That said, you have to actually put the effort into ''making'' the healthy food delicious. You can't expect someone to blindly eat something that looks as unappetizing as Nani's vegetable gelatin product even if it's good for them, for example. It's only once she uses her imagination to frame the oatmeal and honey as something delicious (at least by Lilo's standards) that Lilo is more receptive to her healthy breakfast.

* AloneWithThePsycho: Once Lilo and Stitch realize that Frenchfry is fattening them up so he can eat them, Frenchfry has entered the room, and they are both so fat, they can’t do anything to stop him and he easily traps them.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: As it’s a cartoon, the kind of weight gain seen is obviously impossible in real life, which is [[LampshadedTrope lampshaded]] by Nani after hearing from Moses that Lilo had turned big and round and was bouncing and rolling around during class. In addition to turning round, Lilo, Stitch, and Gantu also become as bouncy as rubber balls after putting on weight, and they roll. Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate, if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he is portrayed as a giant, immobile pile of fat.

* EpicFail: When Lilo tries dancing in hula class, she knocks down the other girls with her new, extra-large body. She then loses her balance, falls over, and starts bouncing around uncontrollably until she rolls towards the other girls and knocks them away like bowling pins.
* FailedASpotCheck: After Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley eat enough of Frenchfry’s food that they turned round and grew a few times their usual size, they don’t notice how fat they are until Lilo jumps off her chair and starts bouncing.

* LaserGuidedKarma: When Gantu sees the now-bloated Stitch, he mocks him for being fat. Stitch then immediately beats him up, and then Gantu eats the birthday cake Frenchfry makes for him, making him really fat, too.

* {{Acrofatic}}: Downplayed. When Frenchfry turns them fat, Lilo and Stitch can only slowly waddle around and Stitch loses his agility, but they can still attack by bouncing on their enemies or rolling over them.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: As it’s a cartoon, the kind of weight gain seen is obviously impossible in real life, which is lampshaded by Nani after hearing from Moses that Lilo had turned big and round.

Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate, if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he is portrayed as a giant, immobile pile of fat.

* BirthdayPartyGoesWrong: It's Gantu's birthday and he is upset nobody is celebrating it. It gets worse when he is fattened up by Frenchfry, and when 625 invites his old college buddies to celebrate, only for him to be humiliated when they think he let himself go since school.

* MagicPants: After Frenchfry fattens up Lilo's body to twenty times its usual size, her dress somehow stretches to fit her. Gantu's clothes also stretch after Frenchfry makes him fat. Pleakley's dress grows with him at first, but after Frenchfry has made him enormously obese, he's seen without it.

* RunningGag: Lilo and Stitch get stuck in holes and doorways due to Frenchfry's food making them too big and fat to fit through.

** That said, you have to actually put the effort into ''making'' the healthy food delicious. You can’t expect someone to blindly eat something that looks as unappetizing as Nani’s vegetable gelatin product even if it’s good for them, for example. It's only once she uses her imagination to frame the oatmeal and honey as something delicious (at least by Lilo's standards) is Lilo more receptive to her healthy breakfast.

* ApocalypticLog: When Lilo and Stitch try to find out why Frenchfry's food is making them morbidly obese so quickly, they stumble upon Jumba's video logs. These chronicle how the food has an exaggerated ability to rob self-control from its victims and never leaves them feeling full. The final log cuts off before our heroes can learn Frenchfry's endgame.

* BalloonBelly: Anyone who eats Frenchfry's food will become bloated instantly. Jumba says it wears off if the victim doesn’t eat anymore of his food for 24 hours.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Everybody who wanted delicious food from Frenchfry gets their wish, only to end up becoming extremely fat and in danger of being eaten by Frenchfry. Pleakley was also the only one of the trio of him, Lilo, and Stitch who wanted to keep eating even after they finally noticed how fat they’d become, and ended up being fattened up into a colossal blob who can barely move.

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The family does need to be eat healthier as Nani points out, but her gelatin meal is hardly appetizing and it’s no wonder the kids don’t want to eat it.

* FatteningTheVictim: Frenchfry does this to his victims to eat them. Especially Pleakley, who becomes so fat, he fills up an entire room.

* FromNobodyToNightmare: Frenchfry was created by Jumba simply to be his personal chef who can cook delicious meals for him. Frenchfry instead turned out to be a cannibal who fattens up anyone he cooks for so he can eat them.

* HeavyVoice: After gorging himself into a blob the size of a two story room, Pleakley’s voice is ''much'' deeper and thicker.

* ImpossiblyDeliciousFood: All the food made by Frenchfry to the point that, even after Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley realize the effect it's having on them, they're completely incapable of stopping themselves from continuing to eat it. Even people who haven’t eaten it and aren’t hungry are hypnotized by it, as Gantu even says he avoids sweets, but finds the cake Frenchfry makes for him irresistible.
* KidsHateVegetables: Lilo and Stitch are both disgusted by the healthy foods that Nani is trying to get them on at the episode's start: whilst them hating the oatmeal was just kids being kids, it's hard to fault them for wanting nothing to do with those unappetizing vegetable-studded gello ready-made meals that Nani stocks up on.

* MagicSkirt: Whenever the chubby Lilo bounces up and down, her skirt is magically replaced with two tiny holes, showing only her feet.
* MamaBear: Nani returns to save Lilo and Stitch and fights tooth and nail to protect her little sister - though she admits she's no longer "little" in one sense.

** Nani is able to get Lilo to eat and enjoy her healthy breakfast by telling her it’s mummy food with ectoplasmic goo as a topping, which Lilo, being young and with a taste for the macabre, laps up on the spot. Nani even lampshades she should’ve used it before.

* RunningGag: Lilo and Stitch getting stuck in holes and doorways due to Frenchfry’s food making them too big and fat to fit through.

* SupremeChef: Frenchfry was specifically designed to be a master personal chef for Jumba. It’s shown by the end of the episode he adapts very well to making healthy food, opening a successful tofu fry stand.
* TemporaryBulkChange: Invoked. Frenchfry’s food makes anyone who eats it grow big and round. Jumba says that the weight gain of Frenchfry's victims will wear off after 24 hours as long as they don't eat his food again. If they keep eating it, though, they’ll just keep getting bigger.
* TrampolineTummy: At the start of Frenchfry’s fight with Nani, he jumps into the now-fat Lilo’s belly and bounces off of it.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: When Lilo shows up to hula class with her body now round and five times it’s normal size, Merle and Yuki only look surprised for a second and keep dancing.

* VillainsOutShopping: While we know Jumba isn’t truly evil, during his time as an evil genius he created Frenchfry simply to serve as a personal chef. No destructive or malevolent intentions, Jumba just wanted a cook.
* WeightTaller: As Frenchfry fattens them up, Lilo and Stitch grow until they’re the same height as Nani. Pleakley ends up being at least 20 feet tall.

** Eating nothing but fattening and unhealthy foods will result in just that; you becoming fat and unhealthy. It also means that you lose your physical abilities, as shown by how Lilo and Stitch are completely helpless when they've grown fat enough for Frenchfry to eat.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: As it’s a cartoon, the kind of weight gain seen is obviously impossible in real life. Lilo, Stitch, and Gantu also become as bouncy as rubber balls after putting on weight, and they roll. Pleakley, for his part, seems rather accurate if just on a cartoonish scale, since he grows so fat that he is portrayed as a giant, immobile pile of fat.
* BalloonBelly: Anyone who eats Frenchfry's food will become bloated almost instantly. Jumba says it wears off if the victim doesn’t eat anymore of his food for 24 hours.

** Frenchfry traps Lilo and Stitch in a couple of relatively weak pens, which they get stuck in due how big they are, and they’re unable to free themselves due to being so fat they can hardly move.

** Pleakley is confined to his room after growing to an enormous size. ** Stitch briefly gets stuck in the house’s back door, due to being turned fat. He gets out, and then Lilo gets stuck in the door, too. ** Lilo gets stuck in her room’s moon roof when Frenchfry bounces her into it.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Everybody who wanted food from Frenchfry gets their wish, only to end up in danger of being eaten after being fattened up. Pleakley also was the only one of the trio of him, Lilo, and Stitch who wanted to keep eating even after they realized how much they ate in their first meal, and ended up being fattened up into a colossal blob who can barely move.

* {{Acrofatic}}: Downplayed. Stitch loses most of his ability to fight as he gets bigger, but he and Lilo are still perfectly viable weapons in the forms of giant bowling balls/cannonballs as Mertle, Mertle’s friends, Gantu, and Frenchfry find out.

* HelpImStuck: Many examples. Pleakley is confined to his room after growing to a sufficient size, unable to even move on his own. Lilo gets stuck in the elevator for a couple seconds, due to Frenchfry making her big and round. Lilo and Stitch briefly get stuck in their back door. Lilo gets stuck in her room’s moon roof when Frenchfry bounces her into it. And by the end of the episode, Lilo and Stitch are completely unable to free themselves from Frenchfry’s relatively weak pens due to being too large and weak.

* ImpossiblyDeliciousFood: All the food made by Frenchfry to the point that, even after Lilo, Stitch, and Pleakley realize the effect it's having on them, they're completely incapable of stopping themselves from continuing to eat it.

Lilo gets stuck in the elevator for a couple seconds, due to Frenchfry making her big and round. Lilo and Stitch briefly get stuck in their front door. Lilo gets stuck in her room’s moon roof when Frenchfry bounces her into it. And by the end of the episode, Lilo and Stitch are completely unable to free themselves from Frenchfry’s relatively weak pens due to being too large and weak.

* MagicPants: After Frenchfry fattens up Lilo’s body to twenty times its usual size, her dress somehow stretches to fit her.
* MagicSkirt: Whenever the chubby Lilo bounces up and down, her skirt is magically replaced with two tiny holes for her legs.

* VillainousGlutton: Frenchfry fattens up his victims to impossibly large sizes but is still eager to eat them, suggesting he himself has a huge appetite he wants to fill. It backfires a bit when he overfeeds Pleakley into a two-story high blob when he’s not satisfied yet with Lilo and Stitch’s sizes, but he just turns his attention towards them.

* [[TheImp Reuben (X-625)]]: Throws Gantu a birthday party with his old schoolmates.
