History Recap / CraigOfTheCreekS3E36CaptureTheFlagPart5TheGame

* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Craig subverts this at the end. Craig is usually about everyone being free to do whatever they want in the Creek, but after Paintball Mike disobeys Craig's order to stay put and goes to rescue Paintball Benny, which ruins the first part of his plan, he gets frustrated when no one listens to him again and starts to believe the Creek should have a little order, like back in the previous episode. He vents to Wildernessa about how if everyone had just listened to him, especially his warnings about King Xavier, they could have avoided this war entirely. When he begins to think that maybe the Creek needs someone to lead all the kids, Wildernessa [[ArmorPiercingQuestion questions him if he's trying to convince her or himself]]. After Craig takes Xavier's flag, Xavier tells him he also loves the Creek and he accepts being the King because the kids of the Creek needs a strong leader who knows what's best for them, which Craig understands. But when Xavier tells Craig he can never be King because it requires a firm hand and he could never handle that burden, Craig has some thoughts about if he should be King after the war. After Craig wins the game, Xavier's forces kneel towards Craig and sees him as their new King, but after looking at the friends he made at the Creek, he remembers his principles and rejects the title and declares no one should tell anyone what they can and can't do in the Creek.

* SketchySuccessor: Craig calls Xavier this, riling him up by stating he's nothing like [[100%AdorationRating Cheyenne and he'll never be like Kenneth was,]]stating that at least people liked his siblings outside the crown, while all the kids on his side of the Creek [[FalseFriend may want to be friends with the King,]][[0%ApprovalRating no one actually likes Xavier for who he really is]].

** Just as Squishinator is about to tag Craig, Wildernessa gets in front of him and lets herself get tagged.

* ContinuityCavalcade: Almost (see WhatHappenedToTheMouse below) everyone who has ever appeared on the show takes part in the game, including characters not seen since their premiere appearances.

* HarmlessFreezing: Anyone who gets tagged is literally frozen in ice.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Both Xavier and Craig do this to each other. When Craig tries to take the flag, King Xavier mocks Craig for essentially cornering himself by coming into the Kings Keep where Xavier can tag him, how he is going to lose his side of the Creek to him once and for all, and how he had never chance against a King. But just as he's about to tag Craig, Craig tells him he doesn't compare to the Kings that his sister and brother were, that he's nothing but a bully who gives kids candy to get them to obey him, as he knows deep down that nobody would actually want to be his friend if he wasn't King because nobody likes him as a person. This enrages Xavier and instead of trying to tag Craig he tries to punch him and almost falls of the edge until Craig saves him.

* TimeForPlanB: After the lose of the Paint Ballers due to them breaking rank, Craig resorted to Plan B by sending in Toman, the Science Alliance and the Junk Lord.

--> '''Craig:''' Deep down, you know that these kids ''only'' want to be friends with the King, and ''nobody'' wants to be friends with Xavier.
