Peaseblossom, the character that Tish plays, [[BitCharacter is only in one scene]].

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped:
** When Tino's fear of clowns becomes ridiculous, the gang attempt to help him get over it - by enrolling him at a nearby circus clown school. By the end of the episode, he says he hasn't gotten over his fear but he can at least live with it now. The lesson here is that being afraid of something is okay, as long as you don't let it take over your life.
** One episode has the gang arguing about whether or not Tino's memory of a childhood hang out spot is real. Tino is convinced it is, while the other three aren't. They go along with him anyway just to prove themselves right. After they fall out, Tish realises MyGodWhatHaveIDone and points out exactly how stupid the fight was. Lor had been arguing through the whole episode about how if being right wasn't important, what was the point of tests. Tish responds "If we'd just taken a friendship test, we would have failed." They reconcile with Tino at once and, despite Tino turning out to be right, does not say he found the hangout - saving this from becoming a BrokenAesop. Essentially it straddles the line of a CaptainObviousAesop, but it's one that a lot of people in real life should follow: sometimes who's right and who's wrong in an argument is not more important than being friends, and both parties should be willing to swallow their pride.
** "To Be Or Not To Be" - Friends don't become friends just because they have the same interests. It's perfectly fine for friends to have their own personal interests and hobbies. Tish abandons her friends when they make fun of her for being in a Shakespeare play. But the other cast members of the play ignore her and she realizes how miserable she is. And her friends still go to the play to support her anyway.
*** It also had a more subtle one: just because something is outside of your normal area of interest, that doesn't mean it's boring or terrible. Tino's narration tells us he, Carver and Lor found the play quite entertaining and enjoyable, despite having come only to support Tish.
** "Super Kids" - There is plenty of time to achieve greatness but your childhood is only going to last so long, so it should be enjoyed while you can. Trip Nickerson, the so-called 'super kid' is bitter and lonely despite his bestselling book. Additionally, fame or recognition does not equal success. And likewise, success does not equal happiness.
** "Murph" - Not everyone will like you and you won't like everybody and that's okay and that you shouldn't obsess over the people that don't like you.
** An in-universe one happens when Tish conducts a study on human behaviour. She acts horribly to all her test subjects and they walk out on her. She then realises that - in a touch of {{Irony}} - ''she'' ended up as the subject of her own research; when you need someone's help, they respond better to positive reinforcement. Tino points out that it took her three days to learn "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar". Still a good lesson though.

They reconcile with Tino at once and, despite Tino turning out to be right, does not say he found the hangout - saving this from becoming a BrokenAesop. Essentially it straddles the line of a CaptainObviousAesop but it's one that a lot of people in real life should follow: who's right and who's wrong in an argument is not more important than being friends, and both parties should swallow their pride.
** "To Be Or Not To Be" - friends don't become friends just because they have the same interests. It's perfectly fine for friends to have their own personal interests and hobbies. Tish abandons her friends when they make fun of her for being in a Shakespeare play. But the other castmembers of the play ignore her and she realises how miserable she is. And her friends still go to the play to support her anyway.
** "Super Kids" - there is plenty of time to achieve greatness but your childhood is only going to last so long, so it should be enjoyed while you can. Trip Nickerson, the so-called 'super kid' is bitter and lonely despite his bestselling book. Additionally fame or recognition does not equal success. And likewise success does not equal happiness.
** An in-universe one happens when Tish conducts a study on human behaviour. She acts horribly to all her test subjects and they walk out on her. She then realises that - in a touch of {{Irony}} - ''she'' ended up as the subject of her own research; when you need someone's help, they respond better to positive reinforcement. Tino points out that it took her three days to learn "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar". Still a good lesson though.
