'''The First Cut'''

Tommy cuts his finger on a thorny bush, and is scared of getting hurt again.

'''Chuckie Grows'''

When Chuckie's clothes shrink in the wash, Angelica tricks him into thinking he's becoming a giant.

!! "The First Cut" provides examples of:

* AfraidOfBlood: Tommy develops this phobia after he cuts his finger on a bush, and he worries that if he gets injured again, all his blood is going to come out. In the end, Chuckie helps him get over this fear by showing him that cuts can heal, and then upon seeing Tommy's bleeding finger, Chas passes out.
* BrickJoke: Early in the episode, Phil and Lil cover themselves in Reptar bandages from Didi's box. Later in the episode, when Didi puts a new bandage on Tommy's finger, she finds the box empty, and says, "I thought they put more of these in a box".
* CatapultNightmare: Tommy awakens this way after his nightmare.
* ContinuityNod: When Tommy talks to Phil and Lil about the bandage on his finger, he brings up [[Recap/RugratsS2E3TheBigHouseTheShot the time he got his booster shot]].
* DirtyCoward: When Spike is in the path of two bicyclists, Phil and Lil worry that the bicyclists are going to squish him. Tommy covers his eyes and doesn't even try to get Spike out of the way. Fortunately, the bicyclists travel around Spike, but Phil and Lil still call Tommy out for not rushing to Spike's aid.
* DogsHateSquirrels: Spike strays into a path that two bicyclists travel down to bark at a squirrel.
* HeroicBSOD: Tommy suffers one after he cuts his finger and Angelica tells him the story of how she got stitches. He doesn't want to play with Phil and Lil or anywhere on the playground, and cowers in fear when Spike is in the path of two bicyclists. It takes Chuckie rolling towards the thorny bush to get him to spring into action, and later showing him that cuts can heal to get him back to normal.
* {{Malaproper}}: While telling the story of how she got stitches to Tommy, Angelica mispronounces some words, such as "Inflection"[[note]]Infection[[/note]] and "Tangerine"[[note]]Gangrene[[/note]].
* NightmareSequence: Tommy has one where he cuts his leg and endless amounts of stuffing pour out of the wound, as if he's a stuffed doll (this was inspired by a damaged teddy bear earlier in the episode).
* NoodleIncident: Angelica tells Tommy the story of how she got stitches on her knee as a result of playing on Charlotte's exercise machine against her wishes.

!! "Chuckie Grows" provides examples of:

* ContrivedCoincidence: The babies believe that Chuckie grew taller than the pile of newspapers due to a combination of Lou shrinking Chuckie's clothes and Lou taking the top from his pile of newpapers to soak up the flood in the laundry room. The babies then believe that Chuckie shrank when Lou adds new newspapers to the pile.
* EurekaMoment: Lou is devastated when he sees that Angelica destroyed the crookneck squash he was going to enter in a contest, but as he sets a stack of newspapers on top of his pile of old ones, he sees an article for rhubarb pie, and this gives him the idea to make crookneck squash pie.
* HereWeGoAgain: At the end of the episode, Lou wins a trophy for his crookneck squash pie, which the babies mistake for another shiny toy. Tommy, Phil, and Lil look over at Chuckie, who tries to talk them out of playing with it, but to no avail.
* HumanLadder: The babies form one to get Lou's carrot-shaped trophy, believing it to be a shiny toy.
* LaserGuidedKarma: As punishment for cutting the faces off of family photos to trick Chuckie into thinking he squished everyone, Drew threatens to take away Angelica's Cynthia cappuccino machine unless she finds a way to make it up to Lou for destroying his crookneck squash.
* ShrunkInTheWash: Chuckie's clothes shrink after Lou washes them with an entire box of laundry soap and sets the dryer to Extra Hot. This leads the babies to believe that Chuckie grew.
* SomethingItis: After the babies tell Angelica that Chuckie grew, Chuckie tells him that he's got a case of "Giantitis", a disease that causes the victim to grow to an enormous size.
