7	After waking up and getting ready to meet the ladies as usual, Disco Bear discovers that his fro has a burned tuft of hair sticking out. He hits up the barber shop to get his hair done, but to his dismay, his barber is The Mole, who chops off his entire hairdo. With a bald head, the ladies find Disco Bear a laughing stock, leading him to discover unconventional ways to gain a full head of hair again.

9	!!"Easy Comb, Easy Go" contains the following:
10	* AdvertisedExtra: Lumpy is listed as a starring role but only appears briefly at the beginning and end.
11	* BaldnessAngst: The entire plot revolves around Disco Bear trying to get his hair back, as being bald doesn't impress Giggles or Petunia.
12	* CruelAndUnusualDeath:
13	** Nutty's head gets impaled on a water sprinkler.
14	** Pop thinks that Cub's sudden growth of hair is a piece of shrubbery that he's cutting; he cuts it off with his shears... along with the top half of Cub's head.
15	** Cuddles accidentally consumes some of the formula and throws up a hairball that has his internal organs. Then more hair grows inside him until he chokes to death.
16	* ADayInTheLimelight: Instead of being a hindrance who only kickstarts the plot, Disco Bear is the protagonist who suffers the conflict in this episode.
17	* EyeScream: Once the hair growth formula gets splashed on his eyes, Disco Bear finds a hair growing on his pupil and ends up tugging it out painfully as it leaves behind a bloody hole. [[FromBadToWorse Then hair covers both of his eyes, blinding him.]] He chops it all off along with the surface of his eyeballs.
18	* GagHaircut: Disco Bear loses all of his hair except for his sideburns thanks to a botched haircut by the Mole. When he tries to impress Giggles and Petunia after they fawn over Mime's new purple afro wig, they all laugh and point at Disco Bear instead for his lack of an afro.
19	* GlobalWarming: Disco Bear's hair dryer is so environmentally unfriendly that the smoke it produces immediately makes a hole in the ozone layer. [[NoBodyLeftBehind Toothy gets vaporized by the sun's hot rays when he stands under the hole]], and Disco Bear's afro gets a singed strand of hair when he stands under the very same hole, which kicks off the plot of the whole episode.
20	* HumanPincushion: Handy is impaled by Flaky's quills as they suddenly grow uncontrollably thanks to the hair formula.
21	* NewJobAsThePlotDemands: Toothy is a mailman, The Mole is a barber, and Sniffles runs a cotton candy stand.
22	* PunBasedTitle: The title is a reference to the phrase "easy come, easy go".
23	* RapidHairGrowth: The hair growth formula manages to give Flaky, Cub, Cuddles and Disco Bear more hair, with varying results of getting killed.
24	* TearOffYourFace: The lower half of Lumpy's face is cut off thanks to the Mole's blindsided barber techniques. Lumpy puts on some aftershave when the Mole is finished, but needless to say, when it comes into contact with the exposed muscle tissue, it hurts like ''hell''.
25	* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Cub, Cuddles, Handy, Nutty, and Toothy die.
26	* ThrowTheDogABone: Lifty, Shifty, Disco Bear, Lumpy, the Mole, Sniffles, Russell, Flaky, Pop, Mime, Petunia, and Giggles survive. This episode is notable for having the highest amount of surviving characters. Other episodes that have this amount of characters appear tend to kill nearly all of them.
