!!Mindy's Bedtime
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2022_01_30_at_104520_am_2.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Good night, Sunspot. Good morning, Ahana.]]
-->'''Written by''': Rachel Lipman
Mindy had such a fun day, but she does not want to go to bed. She decides that she should prevent the sun from going down so she can play longer. The older kids know this isn’t possible, but humor her. This episode talks about how the earth’s rotation causes it to be day in some regions and night in others.
----
* AmbiguouslyGay: In this episode, Mindy (a girl) calls Sean "Sean-zo", an AffectionateNickname coined by Jet (a boy). Sean usually likes Jet calling him that, but he gets annoyed at Mindy when she does the same thing.
-->'''Mindy''': You know it, Sean-zo!
-->'''Sean''': Tsk tsk, you too, Mindy?
* AnAesop: A subtle lesson on empathy. Mindy want to keep the sun from going down so she can play more. Then, she learns about Sydney's pen pal Ahana, who lives in India. When it's day in India, it's night in Boxwood Terrace, and vice versa. When Celery takes the kids to a beach somewhere in the southern hemisphere, Mindy realizes that if she makes the day last a long time, Ahana won't get to wake up.
* TheCameo: Carrot makes a non-speaking cameo. He is shown mixing something in a bowl, then gets knocked over by the volleyball.
* CharacterShilling: Sydney spends a portion of the episode praising Mindy's perseverance because the plot demands it.
-->'''Sean''': Mindy really doesn't give up, does she?
-->'''Sydney''': Never. That's what's so great about her!
-->''(a little while later)''
-->'''Sean''': We have to tell Mindy she can't catch the sun. It's just not scientific.
-->'''Sydney''': But Mindy is acting like a scientist right now!
-->'''Sean''': What do you mean? Right now, she's trying to catch the sun with a net.
-->'''Sydney''': Right now, she's using her imagination to investigate her ideas.
-->'''Sean''': But her ideas are WRONG! She's making mistakes!
-->'''Jet''': And that's great, because she keeps trying!
-->'''Sean''': She's supposed to make mistakes?
-->'''Sydney''': Right, mistakes are fine. They help people know what doesn't work and then figure out what does work.
-->'''Sean''': Well, I guess if she tries really hard to catch the sun, she might actually get tired enough to go to bed.
* ContinuityNod: The squirrel that ate Mitchell's jellybeans in "Earth Camping" appears once again and is finally given a name - Floyd.
* {{Determinator}}: Sydney praises Mindy for not giving up.
* {{Fainting}}: Sean collapses after walking backwards for a long time.
* GivenNameReveal: The squirrel is revealed to be named Floyd.
* GoToSleepEnding: The episode ends with Mindy finally going to bed.
* MeaningfulName: Surprisingly enough, an unseen character manages to have a name that is meaningful to the context of the episode. The name Ahana (अहना) is derived from Sanskrit. It means "dawn and one who cannot be killed or one who is immortal". Another meaning is one who is born in the day. This suits Ahana and the episode in general because the educational topic is sunset, sunrise, dawn etc.
* OnlySaneMan: Sean is the only one who knows that you can't stop the sun from setting.
* PenPals: It is revealed that Sydney has an Indian pen pal named Ahana. Since they live in different time zones, they email each other.
* ThePerfectionist: Sean is frustrated that Mindy is making mistakes. Sydney reminds him that making mistakes is part of science.
* PublicDomainSoundtrack: Floyd plays "1812 Overture" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky on the kazoo.
* RunningGag: Jet saying "I like yellow!"
-->'''Face 9000''': Uh, good for you, Jet.
* ShoutOut: Jet repeatedly saying "I like yellow" could be a reference to the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNry4PE93Y I Like Turtles]]" meme.
* SincerityMode: Mindy honestly says that Sean is right for once. Sean is taken aback by this.
* TalkingInYourSleep: Even when asleep, Jet says "I like yellow".
* ZanyScheme: Mindy has various convoluted plans to stop the sun from setting, such as playing kazoos, walking backwards, and trying to catch the sun with a net.
!!Galileo, Galileo!

-->'''Written by''': Rachel Lipman
Sean is excited to do a school report on Galileo Galilei, but Mindy inadvertently triggers his PTSD involving a [[Recap/ReadyJetGoS1E38HolidaysInBoxwoodTerrace past public performance]]. To make him feel better, the others help Sean act out the story of Galileo, learning about the heliocentric theory in the process.
----
* AbsenteeActor: Face 9000 isn't in this episode.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Sean briefly breaks the fourth wall to tell the audience that they can look at the planets in the sky today with a telescope or a pair of binoculars.
* TheCameo: Carrot and Celery make nonspeaking cameos towards the end.
* ComicalOverreacting: "{{Gasp}} No cartoons?!? What did they watch all day?!?"
* ContinuityNod: Mindy makes Sean nervous to do his report on Galileo, and while doing so, Sean imagines himself on the ''exact same stage'' that the kids did their Christmas pageant in "Holidays in Boxwood Terrace", which is where Sean got nervous to perform his song in front of everyone.
* DisneyAcidSequence: The heliocentric song, where the backgrounds are trippy and Sunspot is treated like a Hollywood celebrity.
* DoubleDoubleTitle: 'Galileo' is repeated twice in the episode's title.
* GratuitousItalian: While pretending to be Galileo, Sean says some Italian words like "Buonasera", "Grazie", and "Eccellente".
* IdiotBall: Mindy thinks that the sun orbits the earth, forgetting what she learned in "Round and Round", just for the sake of the plot.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: Sean's heroes are all scientists (Galileo, Albert Einstein, Neil Armstrong, Marie Curie) except for the final one he lists, Patty Smith. Even Sunspot is confused.
* NiceHat: The kids wear floppy renaissance hats to be like Italians.
* PerformanceAnxiety: Mindy tells Sean that millions of people will watch his school report on Galileo, which really upsets him and makes him nervous.
* RearrangeTheSong: The song "I'm Not Afraid of New Ideas" from the episode "Lone Star" is sung again in this episode, with new lyrics and in the style of tarantella.
* SeriesContinuityError: As mentioned above, it was established in "Round and Round" that the earth orbits the sun. Mindy forgets that fact just to drive the plot of this episode.
* ShoutOut:
** Jet saying "I don't speak Italian" could be a reference to the ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode "Wormy".
** Sean says one of his heroes is Patty Smith, which could reference Music/PattiSmith or a ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' [[https://heyarnold.fandom.com/wiki/Patricia_%22Big_Patty%22_Smith character]].
* TakeThat: Sean makes a well-deserved jab at Flat Earth's.
-->'''Sean''': Some folks say that the world is flat, the edge is very scary / But me, I say the world is round, exactly the contrary.
* TraumaButton: Public performances in front of large crowds are revealed to be a source of trauma for Sean.
