[[caption-width-right:350:Oh, NO! The Hocus Crocus! '''''The Horro'''''--uh, wait, really?]]

* The ''entirety'' of Legato's play, from [[spoiler: Commander Caboodle]]'s [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-418/ hammy introduction]] to "Prince Crescendo's" ''hammier'' [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-420/ opening lines]] to ''[[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-421/ all]]'' of [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-426/ Legato's]] ridiculous expressions, the crown jewel of the whole affair possibly being the revelation that not only is ''[[spoiler: Sir Bacon]]'' playing the role of the "[[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-427/ witch-queen]]" but they're actually ''really good'' at it.

* [[spoiler: Almond and Peridot stopping the play to banter, Peridot's embarrassed shut up, and finally the look of horror on Peridot's face after saving Almond.]]

-->[[spoiler: a what]]

** Then the next page [[spoiler: where Princess Parfait asks whether he didn't even want friends in his childhood]]
--->[[spoiler: '''''My What?!'''']]

* The look on Cucumber and Carrot's faces when [[spoiler: Commander Caboodle calls them "test subjects" like a certain inventor...]]

* Peridot declaring that she came to the [[spoiler: Princess R]] pageant [[FreudianSlip to see Almond]]. The flustered look on her face after she comments seals the deal.

* Peridot's reaction to her dream about her and Almond [[spoiler: getting married]].

* Furthermore, she [[spoiler:invites the Nightmare Knight to watch Punisher Pumice with her.]]

** Apparently Cordelia and Peridot have been put through the same "torture." Cordelia flips through the book the Nightmare Knight gave her [[ThisCannotBe to see if there's some kind of mistake.]] That note she finds at the end of the book? [[spoiler:[[{{Troll}} Just kidding.]]]]
* The Forsaken Master turns out to be [[spoiler:a small jack-o'-lantern kid]] and reveals his true name: [[spoiler:Thebestmaster]], created to be the very best. He then goes and says he wants to prove himself to the Nightmare Knight, or, as he calls him, ''[[spoiler:Steve]]''. The heroes are completely baffled by this development.
* [[spoiler:Thebestmaster]] turns out to actually ''like'' being sealed, so he asks the gang to put him back in the giant crystal. Peridot tries to seal him in a peridot shell, but this turns out to be too weak, so Cucumber decides to try something. He ends up [[spoiler:becoming a MagicalGirl]]. [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-790/ The page immediately after]] says it all.
** Speaking of Peridot's failed attempt, we have [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-787/ Almond's shit-eating grin]] as [[spoiler:Thebestmaster]] criticizes the spell's potency.
* Right after Cucumber [[spoiler:becomes a MagicalGirl, Bestie]] decides to put on a show to make his re-sealing feel more special. Cucumber is very apathetic at first, but pretty much goes "screw it" and decides to re-seal [[spoiler:Bestie]] in the flashiest way possible. A flash of light and puff of smoke later, and [[spoiler:Bestie's sealed under [[BrickJoke a giant bathtub drain]]]].
* After Cucumber points out that the entire Chapter was a [[BreatherEpisode waste of time]] and a distraction due to [[spoiler:Thebestmaster]] providing no real threat, Cordelia and Peridot decide to pretend [[IMeantToDoThat this was their true intention]] and abscond in the hammiest way they can. Capped off by Peridot adorably whispering as she leaves:

* Everyone's fantastically overblown reactions to the Nightmare Knight coming to Silver Studios, from the fake NK's bravado to his dramatic unmasking as [[spoiler:The Guardener]], to the TorchesAndPitchforks raised when they see his real face.

* Apparently, [[spoiler:Bacon]] was trying to convince the staff that the Nightmare Knight villain for ''Pumice'' was just in poor taste. They might go through with writing him out of the show... not because of their warnings, but because the ''Pumice'' NK is ''[[BlatantLies too scary for children]]'', according to MoralGuardians.

* [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/chapter-4-bonus-2/ In a Q&A strip,]] we get a touching moment with Cordelia, as she hints at her own childhood. There's a {{beat|Panel}} as it seems like she's going to elaborate; she doesn't.
-->'''Cordelia:''' ''[smiles softly]'' Were you expecting me to share my touching backstory? ''[maniacal smile]'' '''In a Q&A segment?'''

-->'''Cordelia''': I don't understand! What happened to the power? The presence? The- the '''threats'''??
-->'''Nightmare Knight''': You... '''want''' me to threathen you?
-->'''Cordelia''': '''NO!... YES?? I DON'T KNOW, I'M HAVING A CRISIS'''

* Apparently, [[spoiler:Bacon]] was trying to convince the staff that the Nightmare Knight villain for ''Pumice'' was just in poor taste. They might go through with writing him out of the show... not because of their warnings, but because the ''Pumice'' KN is ''[[BlatantLies too scary for children]]'', according to MoralGuardians.

* "You misunderstand me, Peridot. This is about more than my ego. [[NoExceptYes Mostly]]."
