[[AC:Snow Maniac]]
The evil Snow-Maniac is reborn as Abby's snowman and plans to encase the entire city in ice.
!!Tropes:
* BrickJoke: Earlier in the episode, AP complains that Joey didn’t get him a coat before making him go outside in the snow. Then later, he tries to go look in Abbie’s dollhouse for one before they leave to fight Snow Maniac.
-->'''AP:''' You could’ve at least let me grab a scarf!
* CurbStompBattle: Snow Maniac and her snow mooks pound Atomic Puppet to a pulp.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Snow Maniac uses her ice powers right as Atomic Puppet is dumping the entire contents of the water tower on top of her, freezing herself inside a giant ice boulder.
* DomedHometown: Snow Maniac encases Mega City inside a giant snow globe.
* EyeBeams: Snow Maniac can shoot freezing rays out of her eyes.
* EurekaMoment: Joey has one when AP says that he’s too cold to think of a “blow away plan” and he realizes that the city’s windmills might be the answer to their snow problems.
* FromASingleCell: Snow Maniac is nearly impossible to destroy because she’s made of snow, which Mega City is covered in.
* InstantIceJustAddCold: After Mega City gets dumped on with snow, a few people jump into the ocean and come back up as ice cubes.
* GirlishPigtails: Snow Manic has two braided pigtails, even in her giant snow monster form.
* HardToLightFire: AP tries to light a fire with ice cubes when Joey drags him out into the cold with him.
* HurlItIntoTheSun: Atomic Puppet flicks the giant ball of ice that Snow Maniac is frozen in into the sun.
* ImMelting: When Abbie and Atomic Puppet break the machine generating the snow globe around Mega City, Snow Maniac melts into a puddle.
* MadeOfExplodium: After Atomic Puppet uses it to blow away the snow monsters, one of the blades falls off the windmill and then the whole thing blows up.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Abbie gives one to Lumpy/Snow Maniac, telling her she doesn’t want to be friends anymore because she’s a bully.
* {{Reincarnation}}: After being hurled into the sun, Snow Maniac is reincarnated into Abbie’s snowman and uses this new form to try to continue her evil plans.
* ShoutOut: Abbie’s snowman Lumpy comes to life just like ''[[WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman Frosty the Snowman]]''.
* {{Snowlems}}: Lumpy makes an army of snowmen that takes over Mega City.
* TwoFaced: Some of the snow falls off of Lumpy’s face, revealing Snow Maniac’s [[GlowingEyesOfDoom Glowing Eye of Doom]] underneath.
* VillainOfTheWeek: The titular Snow Maniac.
* WeatherDissonance: Snow Maniac’s magic crystals landing on some clouds cause a snow day in Mega City...in July.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Snow Maniac claims she’s just giving the world exactly what they want: “The joys of the holiday season all year round.”

[[AC:Hero's Holiday]]
AP receives a visit from an old friend on Christmas.
!!Tropes:
* AllJustADream: True to the episode’s referenced source material, it’s revealed that AP’s visit from the ghostly hero was all a dream when Joey finds him asleep in his old room and wakes him up.
* BadFuture: The Hero of Holidays Past, Present, & Future shows AP what would happen if he abandons his friends on Christmas. He gets kidnapped by Mookie and experimented on. The police find the two of them and they end up sharing a padded cell in an insane asylum. Joey has to move away with his family, which ruins his friendship with Pauline. Finally, without its superhero, Mega City falls into ruin as it’s now being ruled by Tite-Gripp and Joey has turned into a VigilanteMan.
-->'''AP:''' Wow! You are really insistent on bumming me out, aren’t you?
* ChristmasEpisode: Joey and AP attend the Justice Alliance’s annual Christmas party, but nothing is going AP’s way. It takes a visit from the Hero of Holidays Past, Present, & Future to get him in the Christmas spirit.
* DartboardOfHate: Joey has one with Professor Tite-Gripp’s picture on it in his lair in the BadFuture.
* EyepatchAfterTimeSkip: Bad Future!Joey has one.
* FutureSelfReveal: Inverted. The Hero of Holidays Past, Present, & Future is revealed to be Captain Atomic before he got turned into a sock puppet.
* SpitTake: In a {{Flashback}}, Captain Atomic does one when Sergeant Subatomic tells him he took his Super Secret Santa Suit to the dry cleaners.
* TantrumThrowing: AP throws a major fit at his first Christmas party since he’s been turned into a sock puppet because nothing is how it used to be. He throws his Santa hat on the ground, knocks over the Christmas tree, and stomps out of the room.
* UnusualEuphemism: The Hero of Holidays Past, Present, & Future tells AP, “pull your head out of your puppet hole”.
* WayPastTheExpirationDate: AP guzzles down some eggnog from the previous year’s party that’s so spoiled it’s almost completely solid.
* YetAnotherChristmasCarol: Feeling upset that all his favorite aspects of Christmas have changed now that he’s no longer human, AP has a dream in which he’s visited by the “Hero of Holidays Past, Present, & Future”.
-->'''AP:''' I’ve heard this story before. Go find a Scrooge to spook and let me get some rest.
