'''Marceline's dad:''' [[LiteralMinded You're not even]] ''[[TheUndead alive]]!''

-->'''Fluffy Person:''' Huh? Who the ''[[ParentheticalSwearing fluff]]'' are ''you?''\\
'''Marceline's dad:''' Well, I'm sure not the guy who's gonna suck out your soul...

'''Marceline:''' (''raises a bemused eyebrow'') [[FlatWhat What?]]\\

'''Hunson:''' (''beat'') [[InsultBackfire That's right. I'm your mama!]] (''[[DoNotTauntCthulhu sucks out their souls]]'')

-->'''Marceline:''' Dad! You always do stuff like this!

!! Tropes

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Hunson Abadeer may be a card-carrying soul-sucking fiend from the Night-o-Sphere, but he still loves his daughter.

* OurDemonsAreDifferent: Hunson is a powerful demon from a dimension known as "the Night-o-Sphere".

* SeeYouInHell: After banishing Marceline's dad, Finn quips "I'll see you in the Night-o-sphere, you sick freak."

* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: When Hunson attempts to claim Gunter's soul, ''Gunter bitch-slaps him.''

* AbsenteeActor: Jake appears at the last second, but he doesn't have any lines.

* CardCarryingVillain: Hunson Abadeer describes himself as "completely evil".

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Hunson Abadeer may be a soul-sucking fiend from the Night-o-Sphere, but he still loves his daughter.

-->'''Marceline:''' Dad! You can't suck out my friends' souls!

* NotHyperbole: In a sense. When Marceline tells Finn that he can't kill her dad, he thinks she means it's because she still loves him, until she clarifies that her dad literally cannot be killed. "He's deathless."

By the time that a pissed Marceline and Finn have caught up with him, Huson has already sucked up the souls of a lot of denizens of Ooo. [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever And grown really big.]] Finn tries to attack him, while he is distracted by Marceline's swearing. Finn discovers that the sucked up souls are literally in him... [[BodyHorror in his neck... whatever it is]], and tries to free them, but instead drops himself and Marceline's bass to the ground. Marceline is satisfied and turns around to go back home, while Dad turns back to sucking the souls. Finn, exasperated, turns on the recording of Marceline's song he still has on him. It forces Marceline and her Dad to finally talk about it, and Dad starts apologizing... at which point Finn climbs up him and cuts him with his sword, freeing the souls, and immediately sends him back to The Nightosphere the same way he was summoned. Marceline is mad at Finn for first embarrassing her and then interrupting her reunion with her dad... but ultimately, not very much, because being near him is exhausting.

* SkewedPriorities: Marceline is more concerned by the fact that her dad ate her fries and took her favorite bass guitar than by the fact that he's a soul-eating [[DemonLordsAndArchfiends demon-lord]] who's a threat to all of Ooo.

Finn is hanging out with Marceline when she asks him to beatbox to her new song, and starts by asking him not to laugh because it's going to be personal. Then she sings about her dad and how he left her. This tears Finn up, and he summons her dad... from a hell dimension called The Nightosphere. Because it turns out that Marceline's dad is an evil demon who doesn't approve of her way of life and likes sucking out peoples' souls, which is why she sang songs about him instead of inviting him over. He takes Marceline's bass (which is actually their family axe) and walks out when she starts yelling at him.

* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: When Marceline's Dad attempts to claim Gunter's soul, ''Gunter bitch-slaps him.''
* EldritchAbomination: Marceline's Dad. Since he's Oo's equivalent of {{Satan}}, it's not surprising.

* EvilerThanThou: Gunter to Marceline's Dad. See KillerRabbit.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Marceline's Dad acts fun, but is also a soul-eating demon. At one point, he teaches a fluffy person to be grateful to be alive, so that it will be more horrifying when his soul gets sucked out.

* FreudianExcuse: Marceline has some hard time with her father, which is expanded on later on.
* HypocriticalHeartwarming: Parodied.

* NoodleIncident: "Daddy, why did you eat my fries?"
* NotHyperbole: In a sense. When Marceline tells Finn that he can't kill her dad, he thinks she means it's because she still loves him, until she clarifies that her dad literally cannot be killed.
* ShoutOut: Marceline's red striped sweater is similar to that iconically worn by [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger]].
* SkewedPriorities: Marceline is more concerned by the fact that her dad ate her fries than by the fact that he's a soul-eating EldritchAbomination.

* YourMom:
-->'''Marceline's Dad:''' What wears a dark suit, is completely evil, and is about to suck out all your souls?\\

'''Marceline's Dad:''' (''beat'') [[InsultBackfire That's right. I'm your mama!]] (''[[DoNotTauntCthulhu sucks out their souls]]'')

-->'''Marceline:''' Dad! You can't suck out my friends souls!
-->'''Hunson:''' ''*laughing*'' Oh Marceline. I never know ''what's'' gonna set you off!

* CallForward: Much later in season six, [[Recap/AdventureTimeS6E40Orgalorg the comment about Gunter being the most evil thing Marceline's Dad had ever encountered turned out to be true]].

* CatchAFallingStar: Subverted. Marceline sees that Finn and her axe bass are falling from a great height. She rushes over and catches... ''her bass'' [[JustInTime just in time]], and lets Finn hit the ground.

'''Marceline's dad:''' [[LiteralMinded You're not even]] ''[[TheUndead alive!]]''

* NightmareFace[=/=]TakeOurWordForIt: Marceline's Dad's distorted face that terrifies the Ice King, which is too scary for us to see.

* KillerRabbit: Gunter {{No Sell}}s Marceline's Dad's attempt to suck his soul, and slaps him. Marceline's Dad then says that Gunter is the most evil entity he has encountered so far in Ooo.
