Dolly hires Big Fee to act as her good luck charm during a skateboarding competition.


This episode features examples of:

  • Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption: When Big Fee moves into the house to act as Dolly's manager, Dylan starts muttering that he smells a rat before Triple-D fills in the last word with their Eek, a Mouse!! moment.
  • Comically Missing the Point: After Triple-D's Eek, a Mouse!! moment, Déjà Vu starts naming other animals and what sounds they make, thinking they were doing animal impressions.
  • A Day in the Limelight: For Big Fee, who spends the episode acting as Dolly's good luck charm and using her for room and board and material gain.
  • Eek, a Mouse!!: Triple-D yell this when Big Fee moves in, only with "mouse" substituted with "rat."
  • Fixing the Game: It's revealed at the end of the episode that the reason Big Fee got double sixes on her dice every time is that they were loaded.
  • Freudian Slip: When Dolly runs into Hansel, she accidentally calls him "Handsome."
  • Friend-or-Idol Decision: Dolly uses her skateboard to give Big Fee her just desserts for selling her siblings' tickets to the Board Dogs competition, giving up her chance to win the competition in the process.
  • Good Luck Charm: Dolly believes that Big Fee is hers and lets her be her manager in return for her sticking around.
  • Hyper-Destructive Bouncing Ball: The dice Dylan and Dawkins throw to test Big Fee's luck do this.
  • Jerkass Ball: Big Fee holds a major one. When Dolly wants her to be her lucky charm for the skating contest, she insists on being allowed to stay in the house (during which time she takes everything that catches her eye, including Dylan's food, blanket, and star collar tag), then after Dolly win the first stage of the contest, she makes her sign autographs under the threat of leaving and taking her "luck" with her. The last straw for Dolly is when she goes back on her word to give the pups tickets, instead selling them to others.
  • "Metaphor" Is My Middle Name: When Dolly says she's going to need a lot of luck to win Board Dogs, Big Fee replies that luck is her middle name.
  • Shout-Out: During the third round of the skating tournament, Hansel makes an AKIRA bike slide on his skateboard.
  • Spit Shake: Dolly and Big Fee do a version where only Big Fee spits after they agree she'll be Dolly's manager, to Dylan's disgust.
  • Underwater Fart Gag: The montage of Big Fee making herself at home in the Dalmatian household has Dylan walk in on her doing this. It's rather impressive considering it's a full sized bathtub and she's the size of a rat.
  • Verbal Backspace: This exchange after Hansel skates off in the opening scene.
    Delgado: Dude, you gotta up your game! He's-
    Dolly: Hot! I mean, hot... ly tipped. To win.
