* RefugeInAudacity: After realizing how unlike real life and magical their world is, Gumball quickly employs the entire town into giving Clare a SurprisinglyHappyEnding. He gets Ms. Jotunheim to buy back Clare's house with a pot of gold stolen from the end of the rainbow she flew to on her broomstick. They get Masami to have her dad hire Clare's father as an engineer at the rainbow factory, which he doesn't need qualifications for since it's a made up career anyway. Wilson feels less insecure about his mixed up identity after seeing "a cat and a goldfish riding a T-Rex down the freeway" since he's not that weird by comparison. This is all announced along with Clare and her love interest winning prom queen and king through a megaphone with manic glee after they crash her bus with the aforementioned T-Rex ride to the cheers of the whole town.
