2Flame Princess and Ice King battle, prompting Finn to have an exciting dream.
3----
4!! Tropes
5* BeamOWar: Happens during Flame Princess's and Ice King's big fight. Flame Princess wins.
6* CallingYourAttacks: Played straight with FP's Inferno Shot; PlayedForLaughs with Ice King just saying his name for an attack.
7* CassandraTruth: The Cosmic Owl warns Finn about the consequences of continuing to make Flame Princess and Ice King fight, but Finn ignores this.
8* ContinuityNod: Finn calls Ice King "Simon", though Ice King doesn't remember this being his real name.
9* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Finn's first dream involved FP setting his nethers on fire... and he ''liked'' it. The way it's portrayed makes it seem like a [[EroticDream wet dream]].
10* DomesticAbuser: Finn tricks his girlfriend into fighting against the Ice King because it turned him on. The tricking involves writing a pretty hurtful letter where he uses the personal details he's learned about Flame Princess to provoke her -- insulting her comfort, scented candles, playing on her insecurity about having smelly feet, and remarking how unstable she is that she cannot even kiss her boyfriend without nuking the planet. Basically using her the same way her family does. This behavior costs Finn his first genuine LoveInterest.
11* DownerEnding: Flame Princess breaks up with Finn.
12* EasilyForgiven: Finn assumes Flame Princess will forgive him once he says he's sorry. [[AvertedTrope She doesn't.]]
13* GroinAttack: Finn's dreams involve both Flame Princess and Ice King attacking his crotch.
14* IronicEcho: "You blew it."
15* JerkassBall: Finn is a particularly dickish teenage boy in this because he had a wet dream about Flame Princess setting fire to his crotch, and gets off on her fighting Ice King. He decides to play [[TheChessMaster chessmaster]] in order to have Flame Princess and Ice King fight. It doesn't pay off in the end.
16* KamehameHadoken: Ice King and Flame Princess fire elemental ones at each other.
17* KarmaHoudini: Jake does not receive any repercussions for encouraging Finn to write and send cruel letters to Ice King and Flame Princess so he could get them to fight.
18* LaserGuidedKarma: Manipulating others to satisfy your inner BloodKnight causes you to lose your girlfriend.
19* ManipulativeBastard: Finn of all people, proves to be this in this episode, manipulating Flame Princess into fighting Ice King. It results in the latter's kingdom being destroyed and the former breaks up with him.
20* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Finn's selfish and short-sighted attempts to continue getting excited by Flame Princess' and Ice King's fights devastates the Ice Kingdom, almost gets Ice King killed, and ultimately concludes in Flame Princess breaking up with him.
21* RejectedApology: Finn apologizes to Flame Princess for tricking her into fighting Ice King but his attempts to explain his actions, only cause Flame Princess and not accept the apology as the moment he mentions The Cosmic Owl causes Flame Princess to not want to hear anymore from Finn and conclude that his apology was insincere.
22* ShoutOut: The big fight between Ice King and Flame Princess contains visual references to attacks from ''Anime/DragonBallZ''.
23* SpitTake: Jake upon hearing Finn saw the Cosmic Owl in his dream.
24* UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny: Finn invokes this with the Flame Princess and Ice King. It ends up destroying the Ice Kingdom and Finn's relationship with Flame Princess.
25* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: It's ultimately Jake who drives Finn to make FP and Ice King fight again at the cost of the former's relationship.
26* VirginShaming: Metaphorically. Finn shows just how bad he can be when he includes "you can't kiss Finn without freaking out" in his insulting letter to Flame Princess.
27* WhamEpisode: Ice King now lacks a home and Flame Princess breaks up with Finn.
