| 11 | !!Tropes: |
| 12 | |
| 13 | * BodyLanguage: Artephius notes that despite Dulcinea stating she doesn't hate Jack, she nods every time she says "no". |
| 14 | * DirtyCoward: Jack doesn't even have a real sword and relies on Puss to take on any threat as he just goes and steals the treasure. |
| 15 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Jack is only liked by Puss, where as everyone including Dulcinea can't stand him. |
| 16 | * GoodCannotComprehendEvil: Dulcinea is so kind and all loving that before meeting Jack literally had no idea what disliking someone feels like. She has to be told that the strange urge she has to "[[BuffySpeak curl her hand into a ball and put it into his face very fast, over and over]]" means she doesn't like Jack. Later, after her RageBreakingPoint, she checks with Puss to make sure she got "yelling" right. |
| 17 | * JokeItem: Jack's sword, just a flimsy twig with a handle. |
| 18 | * LostInCharacter: Artephius clearly gets too into his role as the Evil Wizard. |
| 19 | * LuringInPrey: The "princess" turns out to be a anglerfish-like princess-shaped lure on a monster. |
| 20 | * RageBreakingPoint: It tells you how bad Jack is when '''[[FriendToAllLivingThings DULCINEA]]''' of all people explodes at Jack for being a FalseFriend to Puss and scares the unstoppable monster out of town. |
| 21 | * SealedEvilInACan: Puss traps the monster in a sealing staff, though Artephius breaks it. |
| 22 | * VictoryIsBoring: The plot of the episode is the fact that Puss feels bored just dealing with the ordinary bandits, to the point he now just sees them as exercise, alternating hands or even reading a book with his back turned towards them. So Dulcinea and the orphans set up an "adventure" for him to cheer him up. |
