* "Escape FromWhich Island?" has Bob come with Mr. Fischoder to a rich people party on an island, where the men do large amounts of drugs and rave. There's a [[BigStormEpisode big storm happening]], which destroys the boats the men used to get there, stranding everyone stupid enough to stay behind (and the sober Bob, who is there against his will). It's unpleasant for Bob, but not very scary...until a seriously drugged-out Hubert starts acting like a wolf, howling and attacking people. He bites Randolph's arm, drawing blood (which Bob finds on the ground), and attempts to bite the others. At times, the episode feels less like Bob's Burgers, and more like a slasher film or survival horror game, with the stranded men attempting to escape a violent madman who can't be reasoned with.

** When Alice notices the clue that proves Mr. Miller is the spy, Miller is ''holding'' Lily. Alice is able to take her back and leave the room before Miller catches on that she's figured him out, but in that moment you can ''feel'' Alice's terror as she looks at her baby in the old man's arms.

* In "O.T. The Outside Toilet," Gene [[PickOnSomeoneYourOwnSize becomes the target]] of a man who introduces himself as "Max Flush," who is actually a dangerous thief looking for the same hi-tech toilet Gene finds in the woods. Max's first interaction with Gene, in particular, makes him come off as [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything a major creep]]; unsurprisingly, Gene hightails it out of there.

* "The Wolf of Wharf Street" has Bob (who's loopy from painkillers for his leg injury) flee into the foggy town on Halloween night when he becomes convinced Teddy is a werewolf. While trying to hide in the park, Bob ends up coming face-to-face with the ''actual'' wolf that's been reported in the area; to up the creepy factor, the wolf appears realistic, making it [[UncannyValley noticeably clash]] with the show's art style. Thankfully, the situation is immediately resolved when Mr. Fischoeder and Felix arrive to retrieve the wolf (it's Felix's pet), but for a tense moment, there was a very real possibility of an injured Bob being attacked by a wild animal.
