Added DiffLines:

* MeaningfulRename: Implied. The door to Leif's old room that is unlocked with the family tone containing the information about the Calamity Box noticeably has the stylised 'L' on the door [[SignsOfDisrepair reversed]] to make a 'P' for Plantar, highlighted by the lister positioning on the door showing how it was originally meant to look, implying that Leif might have changed her family name to prevent Andrias tracking down her family before she took the box with her to earth and did her best to [[{{Unperson}} obscure]] any relationship they had to her.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Unperson}}: It's implied that Leif did this to ''herself'' in order to prevent Andrias finding her family and taking his {{revenge}} on them for her betrayal. The door to her room noticeably has the 'L' that denoted her name reversed to make a 'P' for Plantar, implying that Leif did her best to cut all ties she had to her surviving immediate family so they wouldn't be targeted after she [[IDidWhatIHadToDo did what she needed to]] to protect Amphibia from the impending Calamity she foresaw.

* CoolSword: Anne resumes wielding Tritonio's family sword in this episode, in contrast to the chipped sword she looted from Toad Tower she'd been using previously, and the blade is shown glowing blue when she throws it at Tritonio's head to get his attention.

* CoolSword: Anne resumes wielding Tritonio's family sword in this episode, in contrast to the chipped sword she looted from Toad Tower she'd been using previously, and the blade is shown glowing blue when she throws it at Tritonio's head to get his attention. It's unclear where exactly she'd been keeping it before this point, presumably somewhere on the Plantar farm, and resumed using it because the resistance needed every available weapon they could get.


Added DiffLines:

* FailedASpotCheck: Anne, Sprig and Tritonio all collectively fail one when none of them notice the 'family sword' Anne's using briefly glow blue when she chucks it past Tritonio's head in anger after he decides to abandon his captured gang, despite his obvious regret. Granted, it ''is'' slowly fairly subtly, but it visibly changed colour ''right as Tritonio's looking a it'' and he doesn't;t bring it up at all.


Added DiffLines:

* TheUnreveal: It's not revealed ''where'' Tritonio actually got his 'family' sword from, nor why it tends to softly glow the same blue as Anne's SuperMode and associated gem at times. Given he's revealed to be an orphan in this episode, it most certainly wasn't an actual heirloom, but it's origins and intended purpose are still currently a mystery. On a less serious note, it's not revealed where Anne's been keeping the blade up to this point, nor why she chose to use the more chipped blades scavenged from Toad warriors as her primary weapon during season two, rather than taking the blade with her on the dangerous trip to Newtopia.

Added DiffLines:

* SignsOfDisrepair: Uncommented by the characters, the door to Lief's room has the cursive looped "L" [[SixIsNine turned upside down]] to look like a "P" for Plantar. There's an outlined lighter spot where the letter used to be to really draw attention to it.

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Hop Pop stumbles upon Leif's secret room after getting lost while looking for the bathroom.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Whatever secret message is in encoded on the red paper the protagonists discovered will likely play a part in the GrandFinale, as shown by the fact that Sprig placed it in his pocket rather than leave it in the secret room.

* NeverBeHurtAgain: Tritonio’s FreudianExcuse. As a kid with no parents, Tritonio thought he could trust a group of kid thieves, only for them to backstab him once he [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlived his usefulness]]. For this reason he promised himself to never get attached to anyone. This explains why he was willing to let Anne, Sprig and Polly get arrested after they had successfully got him the Tiger Moth's Eye.
