!!Round and Round
The gang learns about how all the planets revolve around the sun and rotate at the same time.
----
* BadassAdorable: Implied. Mindy, who is four, takes ''jiu-jitsu'' lessons.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
** Mindy mentions taking jiu-jitsu lessons, which is a weird one-off line never mentioned again.
** Jet mentions having a grandfather, claiming that Grandpa Propulsion is like Jupiter (big and gassy) after dinner. This is also never mentioned again in later episodes.
* GlassSmackAndSlide: Sunspot is floating in the saucer. When the saucer stops at Mercury, he smacks into the window and slowly slides off.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Mindy gets to be egotistical in the episode, since she plays the sun and wants to be called 'Queen Sun.' She even says the trope name word-for-word.
* ItsTheBestWhateverEver: Jet says that Saturn is the coolest counterclockwise-rotating planet ever.
* LoudGulp: When the saucer zooms into outer space, Sean gulps loudly, but Sydney comforts him.
* MatchCut: The episode opens with a shot of the Earth, then cuts to a shot of Jet's Earth model.
* OffModel: When Sean is hiding under the saucer couch, it has a big gap. But when Sydney helps Sean up from the ground, the couch has a smaller gap.
* SpectacularSpinning: After explaining how planets both orbit and rotate, Face spins around to exit.

!!The Plant From Bortron 7
Jet tries to grow seeds from Bortron 7 under the light of the sun, leading to unexpected results.
----
* AdmiringTheAbomination: Jet is in awe at the BotanicalAbomination, and doesn't get scared of it once. When the plant breaks away from its pot, Jet even says "Son?!?"
* AlienNonInterferenceClause: Carrot and Celery warn Jet that as Bortronian travel writers, they are not supposed to interfere with Earth, and letting a giant planet run loose is definitely interfering.
* ArtShift: When the giant plant breaks away from the pot, it's drawn in a comic style.
* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Jet's Bortronian plant becomes enormous after it grows under the light of the Sun. It also becomes a monstrous kaiju-like creature.
* BotanicalAbomination: Jet grows a Bortronian plant under the light of the Earth's sun. However, it becomes a huge, monstrous plant that rampages the town.
* DiegeticSoundtrackUsage: Jet hums the show's theme song while filling a bucket with water.
* IAlwaysWantedToSayThat: Sean proclaims "There's not a moment to lose!" then mutters that he's always wanted to say that.
* KingKongClimb: While grabbing Sunspot, the giant plant stands on top of the treehouse and pounds its chest.
* MenUseViolenceWomenUseCommunication: Sydney assumes that the giant plant has a head, and offers a peaceful solution to the problem by wanting to talk to the plant. But Sean offers a violent solution by wanting to get a big pair of clippers and snip the plant. They keep arguing about it until the plant runs away, most likely because of Sean wanting to snip the plant.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Just when the kids get the plant back to normal size, Mindy announces that she has planted the rest of Jet's seeds, ending the episode with the kids screaming.
* NoEnding: The episode ends with Mindy announcing that she has planted more seeds. Then, more giant plants emerge, and the kids scream in terror. That's it. That's the ending.
* PrimalChestPound: The giant plant pounds its chest while standing on top of the treehouse.
* SecretIdentity: This is the first episode that mentions that Jet's alien identity must be kept a secret. Sydney doesn't want anyone to see the runaway plant, because then it would expose Jet's alien identity.
* ShoutOut: Many fans say that the plant is like Franchise/{{Godzilla}}, but it's really more like Franchise/KingKong, another Kaiju. Like how King Kong grabbed a blonde woman and climbed the Empire State Building, the giant plant grabs Sunspot and climbs the treehouse, then does the signature PrimalChestPound.
* SplitScreenPhoneCall: Jet has this with Carrot and Celery.
* TotallyRadical: "Hey, daddy-o! What's shaking?"
* WatchWhereYoureGoing: Jet, Sean, and Sydney are chasing the giant plant. However, the giant plant escapes from them just in time for them to crash into each other.
