The Fall Frenzy Dance has all the Tobins falling under its spell. Beef accidentally accepts to go to the dance with Alyson, Dell, and Greta at the same time; Judy discovers that Gill has a plan on how to get a kiss from her; Wolf reveals he gets aroused whenever he sees the Corn Caddy, a food truck shaped like an ear of corn; Ham buys Crispin a ring he likes but he's worried Crispin might misinterpret it as him trying to propose to him; Moon and his friends plan a heist to steal all of the desserts at the dance.


Tropes:

  • Accidental Proposal: Ham is trying to avoid this, as Judy, Moon & the Corn Truck Driver immediately thought that Ham was going to propose when they see Ham carrying his present to Crispin.
  • Couch Gag:
  • Complexity Addiction: Gil's plan to kiss Judy at the dance features 98 steps.
  • Framing Device: Judy is telling Alanis Morissette all about what happened at the Fall Frenzy Dance.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: The yeti can be spotted peeking from behind a tree at the moment where the Tobins, minus Beef, are forming a circle around Judy to protect her from Gill as they walk her to the building.
  • Heist Clash: Before Moon and his friends can steal the dessert table, the table moves on its own and it's revealed that Quinn was under the table. She only wanted to steal her mother's beaver brownies, but Moon's heist clashed with her score so she stole all of the desserts from them just so she can strike a deal with them. Since she has no place to hide all of the desserts, she makes a deal for a cut of the loot and to be a part of their friendship.
  • Heist Episode: Moon's subplot involves Heisting the entire dessert buffet.
  • I Need to Go Iron My Dog: To avoid his three dates, Beef pretends to be someone named Derrick who's getting a phone call from the President to help deal with some Draculas.
  • Karma Houdini: Moon and his friends succeed with the heist with no repercussions.
  • Look Both Ways: Wolf is so distracted when he sees the Corn Caddy passing by that he is almost run over by a pickup truck.
  • Making Love in All the Wrong Places: When Wolf sees the Corn Caddy outside the dance and he moves towards it, Honeybee follows him to try to stop him from doing something stupid. But they both end up doing something stupid when they do the deed inside the food truck when the truck owner left the window open for them to enter inside. When Wolf opens the door to let some more air in, he accidentally activates the truck's alarm, forcing the couple to flee out of the truck in their underwear while they carry their clothes.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Beef says this after getting two dates.
  • Overcome with Desire: Wolf gets really horny whenever he sees the Corn Caddy and he can't control himself. He ends up fracturing his arm after he sees the Corn Caddy drive by on the street and he walks toward it and an oncoming car hits his arm. He's finally cured from his obsession with the Corn Caddy after he and Honeybee does the deed in the food truck.
  • Thememobile: The Corn Caddy, a food truck shaped like an ear of corn, complete with a pat of butter on top.
  • Two-Timer Date: Beef kicks this trope up a notch and takes three women to the dance. Fortunately, Alyson, Dell, and Greta understand this predicament because on top of the craziness the Frenzy brings, they know Beef is a Nice Guy who has trouble saying "no". After they bond over their similarities about their love of reading, their ownership of a harp despite their inability to play it, and their Tweety tattoos, they dance with Beef as a group.

♫ Drop into the Gill Zone
If you want to get that girl
Boy, you got to wink and twirl
She is closer than you think
Just give a twirl and wink
Got to tell her what she means
Show her how your nails are clean
And you can make her all your own
Drop into the Gill Zone
Did I tell you about the time
I found a mushroom in my bed?
If you're wondering what's that sound
It's probably me inside your head
Saying, "You'll never have to be alone
You dropped into the Gill Zone" ♫

You want to know what CVS stands for?

Making Love in the Corn Caddy

Wolf gets really horny whenever he sees the Corn Caddy and he can't control himself and Honeybee goes along with it. They end up doing the deed inside the food truck when the truck owner left the window open for them to enter inside. When Wolf opens the door to let some more air in, he accidentally activates the truck's alarm, forcing the couple to flee out of the truck in their underwear while they carry their clothes.

How well does it match the trope?
