!!Tropes:
* AttentionWhore: Jake spends the entire episode trying to impress Bronwyn and her friends and later enters a race against her where the loser is banned from the skate park, just so he can be the coolest.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Jake eventually forgets the entire point of his going to check on his granddaughter -- to make sure she's secure for the future for her dad -- and instead focuses on trying to impress her and her friends.
* ContinuityNod: Huntress Wizard shows up briefly when Finn plays the flute.
** Jake pretending not to know about his granddaughter is a nod to "Ocarina"'s darker alternate ending where Kim Kil Whan decides keep his family a secret because Jake is just too immature.
* TheFettered: Jake (stretchy powers) and Kim Kil Whan (a very long dogicorn plus teleportation), literally during the three-legged race. They come in last but Kim Kil Whan appreciates Jake not using his powers to show off or cheat (Jake also doesn't use his powers in his race with Bronwyn aside from giving himself a cool "hairdo").
* GoodParents: Upon finding out why Bronwyn's grades have slid, Kim Kil Whan recognizes skating's important to her but tells her firmly yet politely that she needs to get her grades up, something she agrees to with no issue. He also apologizes for not simply discussing it with her in the first place and sending Jake instead.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Even Finn thinks Jake skateboarding against his granddaughter is dumb.
* ManChild: Thoroughly deconstructed with Jake this time around: He fails to connect with Kim Kil Whan due to his immaturity and is more focused on impressing his granddaughter than actually being her grandpa. It also gets him horribly injured when he tries to make a jump it took Bronwyn months to make.
* RideTheLightning / ShockAndAwe / WeatherManipulation: Bronwyn summons storm clouds and becomes a bolt of lightning just to step down to Jake and challenge him.
* SequelEpisode: To "Ocarina". Jake's relationship with Kim Kil is somewhat better but Jake hasn't really changed enough for Kim to change his opinion of his dad.
* ShipTease:
** Marceline and Bubblegum are seen together in the "Pit of Love".
** Huntress Wizard shows up again when Finn plays the flute.
* WhatTheHellHero: Finn calls Jake out for racing against Bronwyn.
-->'''Finn:''' Dude are you really going to get your granddaughter banned from her own skate park?\\
'''Jake:''' [[BluntYes I hope so!]]
