Written & storyboarded by Pearl Low & Richie Pope

When Craig visits his cousin Bryson, they decide to tour the city.


Tropes:

  • Anti-Climax: After all the trouble they go through to get to the laundromat and play the arcade game, Craig and Bryson lose the game in two seconds.
  • Bittersweet Ending: Craig and Bryson barely got to play their video game, but they did have fun exploring the neighborhood, and Craig got to map it, giving it to Bryson so they can finish it during their next visit.
  • Food as Bribe: Craig gives the teens the butter roll intended for Darnell so they can let him and Bryson play the video game.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: Ronald is this to the Williams. When Duane sees Ronald and Ronald would like to talk to him, Duane politely drives away from him. When Jessica is left behind and Ronald offers to hang out with her, Kimmy doesn't want him talking to her family because he's boring, which he agrees with.
  • Full-Name Ultimatum: Kimmy threatens Darnell by calling him by his full name, Darnell Aloysious Williams.
  • Harsh Word Impact: We don't hear much of what the teenagers call Craig, but when he comes back, his skin is full of burns; they literally roasted him.
  • Impossibly Delicious Food: Butter rolls are presented as this. Craig is at first skeptical, since they're just rolls with butter, but the thought of having one is enough for Darnell to give Bryson money and for the teenagers to let them play the arcade game.
  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Craig wants to play the video game as Slide the Ferret because he is a main character.
  • Mascot Fighter: Power Punchers Crossover Clash, in which Slide the Ferret characters fight with the titular Punchers.
  • Mooning: Craig and Bryson pass by the home of Lucas, a kid Bryson says is really wild. They see him through the window, turning his back to them. Craig thinks he's just showing them his new jeans, until Lucas starts pulling them down; the audience, thankfully, is spared the sight. Lucas later appears during a montage scene, about to drop his pants again before cutting away.
  • Oh, Crap!: Craig and Bryson have this expression when Darnell calls them wondering when they were coming back with his butter roll, which they had given to the teens.
  • Some Kind of Force Field: Because Jessica is too young, she's physically unable to leave the Williams' stoop because of an invisible, glass-like barrier.
  • Travel Montage: As Craig and Bryson make their way through the city, their progress is shown on Craig's map, each new location appearing as Bryson introduces it.
