History Recap / AdventureTimeS6E43TheComet

* EleventhHourSuperpower: While in Orgalorg's stomach and Finn's (artificial) arm being attacked, the thorn responded by transforming itslef and the arm into a large thorny whip which Finn uses to free himself and the Comet before tearing up Orgalorg.
* EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: Orgalorg's "underside" has rainbow colors that light up. Remarkably, unlike similar lights in real-life deep sea organisms they don't hypnotize, lure, or scare off Finn and Jake.

* WhipItGood: Finn's thorn becomes a giant whip, which he uses to defeat Orgalorg.

** Orgalorg insured the Candy Kingdom's ungrateful unrest leading to Princess Bubblegum being dethroned and their own seizure of the comet back in [[Recap/AdventureTimeS6E36Hoots Hoots]].

* YouCantThwartStageOne: Orgalorg is right in that Finn and Jake can't stop them from seizing the comet since they'd already insured it was fated back in [[Recap/AdventureTimeS6E36Hoots Hoots]]. Fortunately they never insured they couldn't be stopped after that.

* StatusQuoIsGod: Subverted. By the end Gunter is a penguin again, but King of Ooo is still ruling the Candy Kingdom.

* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: The Comet offers to take Finn with it in discorporating its physical form and exploring the universe.

** The images that appear with the Catalyst Comet's LongList include the angry squirrel from "The Duke" and "Princess Potluck", Lumpy Space Princess and Marceline (who hung out together in "Princess Day"), Mr. Fox's subconscious from "Another Five Short Graybles", Tiffany the goblin, Bufo's secret wizard circle (which first appeared in "Reign of Gunters"), the Farm from "Who Would Win?", the crying mountain from "Memories of Boom-Boom Mountain", Magic Betty from "You Forgot Your Floaties", Rattleballs, Tree Trunks and Mr. Pig making out from "Dream of Love", and Margaret and Joshua.

* PurpleIsPowerful: The comet this time around is purple [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience as opposed]] to [[SicklyGreenGlow green]] for the Lich and {{blue|IsHeroic}} for Finn.

* RealityEnsues: Jake tries to propel his spacesuit [[{{Gasshole}} by farting]], but since it's sealed he just makes the inside of it smell bad.

** This becomes much more poignant when the Season 8 episode "Min and Marty" do indeed explore Martin's past: [[spoiler: He was still a scoundrel, but a lovable one who manage to form a relation with Minvera, a scientist who would be Finn's mother. Martin's past comes after him and he leaves Finn to fight off the monster with the promise of coming back, confirming Martin truly loved Finn. This leaves many more questions on how Martin ended up i the cosmic prison and an image with shrapnel in his head implies Martin suffered severe brain damage and possibly PTSD.]] If nothing else, Martin's behavior implies that Finn is better off without him.

* TheWorldIsJustAwesome: Orgalorg gives an interesting speech about letting the "doors of the universe" lead you. He promptly "makes it gross" by saying how he'll use it to destroy worlds.

** The images that appear with the Catalyst Comet's LongList includes the angry squirrel from "The Duke" and "Princess Potluck", Mr. Fox's subconscious from "Another Five Short Graybles", Tiffany the goblin, Bufo's secret wizard circle which first appeared in "Reign of Gunters", the crying mountain from "Memories of Boom-Boom Mountain", Magic Betty from "You Forgot Your Floaties", Rattleballs, and Margaret and Joshua.

* ContinuityNod: Finn reminds Jake to be careful not to fulfill his [[Recap/AdventureTimeS3E18TheNewFrontier croak dream]] when they drift apart in space. Later on Banana Man had shown up to pick up Jake.

* EldritchAbomination: Orgalorg's several forms: giant, sparkling green brain erupting from Gunter's head, the version seen in "Orgalorg", and the "unfolded" version used to catch the catalyst comet.

* SuddenlyVoiced: Gunter, now that he realizes he's actually Orgalorg.

* TheVoiceless: Gunther goes back to being a nearly-silent penguin after being re-crushed by Ooo's gravity.

* DumbassHasAPoint / JerkassHasAPoint: During Finn and Martin's final moments together, Finn tries to get some answers from his father. Martin tells Finn that no answer he could give would be satisfying. Martin's life remains a mystery, especially the events of what led to him leaving baby Finn. While Finn (and the audience) would no doubt want answers, Martin makes it clear that whatever the reasons are, Finn (nor the audience possibly), would probably not understand. Finn pretty much resigns to not knowing more.

** In spite of the catalyst comet's offer to show him the universe, Finn wants to see how the world of Ooo will play out.

** The "core" of the catalyst comet: a [[AlienGeometry hollow]] [[SinisterGeometry purple sphere]] with eyes along the gaps. In contrast to their strange forms and unfathomable powers both the catalyst comet and Orgalorg have fairly calm mannerisms and non-[[BrownNote brain-melting]] speaking voices (compared to, say, [[VoiceOfTheLegion The Lich]]).
* EleventhHourSuperpower: While in Orgalorg's stomach, the thorn in Finn's hand transforms his arm into a thorny grass whip, which he uses to defeat the abomination.

* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: See above, plus Jake's parents are who the catalyst comet lists as "Mother [and] Father" while Martin is a "scoundrel".

* TheUnreveal: Martin apparently leaves the show permanently with little to nothing revealed about him.
