History Recap / StarVsTheForcesOfEvilS4E20JunkinJanna

* RealityEnsues: Janna doesn't have any powers like Star or combat abilities like Marco, so Tom has to save her when she's in danger, and [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere she suggests they should leave]] when the crow turns out to be more powerful than they thought.

!Tropes

* ADayInTheLimelight: Janna is the main character this episode, getting most of the action and dialogue, although Star Butterfly still remains integral to the plot, yet she's a secondary character, making this a PerspectiveFlip.

* CordonBleughChef: Sean offers Eclipsa and Star some donuts he baked himself. The make Eclipsa visibly ill. Sean keeps offering them more, including a donut ''burger'' ("an old family recipe"). Tom's the only one who likes them.
* ContinuityNod: This would be the [[Recap/StarVsTheForcesOfEvilS2E25PageTurner second time]] the Magical High Commission holds a meeting the summonee has to go through hell to attend, and for something they could've simply called or sent a letter about.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: When Tom and Janna find the giant boot in the ruins of Butterfly Castle, it appears to be on a pile of similar-looking pieces of armour. The end of the episode reveals that the crow that took it is working for Mina, who is assembling the pieces into a giant suit of armour.
* TheExtremistWasRight: Though Janna's decision to have the crow killed was too hardcore even for Tom, she ultimately was right that the bird was a credible threat to them.

* KnowWhenToFoldEm: When it became evident the crow was too dangerous to face and Tom was clearly doing squat against it, Janna and Tom decide they should just scram and not fight it.

* VaguenessIsComing: The Magic High Commission tell Star and Eclipsa that they've found magic that no one has used in a long time being used in the Monster Temple. What kind of magic it is and who is using it has yet to be revealed.

* EyeScream: Tom blasted Sebastian in the eye, but only succeeded in burning half his face off.

* BodyHorror: A side of Sebastian's face gets burned and scarred by one of Tom's fire attacks.

* PhoneaholicTeenager: Star and Tom both keep sending messages to each other, until Star's mirror is crystalized and Tom breaks his when protecting Janna from the crow. Star even beats up Rhombulus for crystalizing hers.

* PhoneaholicTeenager: Star and Tom both keep sending messages to each other, until Star's mirror is crystalized and Tom breaks his when protecting Janna from the crow.

** Mina is assembling a suit of armor and is the likely source of this powerful magic. Sebastian is also no ordinary crow, it's incredibly strong and can change size at will. It's likely Sebastian has been submitted to the solarian experiment, like his master.

* EveryoneHasStandards: Tom is against attacking a crow for no justified reason.

* ObstructiveBureaucrat: The Magic High Commission suspects Eclipsa of using powerful magic but rather than properly investigate (or, you know, just call her) they summon her to a meeting they deliberately make her wait for and then bluntly demand she admit responsibility.

** Something magical is more powerful than anything the commission has ever seen before.

* ObstructiveBureaucrat: The Magic High Commission suspects Eclipsa of using powerful magic but rather than properly investigate they call her to a meeting they deliberately make her wait for and then bluntly demand she admit responsibility.

** Mina has given her crow Sebastian powers similar to her own, and is assembling a giant suit of magical armor, clearly planning to use both against Eclipsa.
* ShortDistancePhoneCall: While with Janna, Tom can't stop texting to Star. Janna has to call him to his compact, despite being right next to him, in order to tell him to put it down.

* CordonBleughChef: Sean offers Eclipsa and Star some donuts he baked himself. The make Eclipsa visibly ill. Sean keeps offering them more, including a donut ''burger'' ("an old family recipe").
