** Bean does this accidentally, trying to skip actually torturing someone. She offers to cook the guy a last meal, but passes and dithers on every option just because she can't or won't cook them, driving him to screaming agony, which her boss mistakes for actual torture.

She offers to cook the guy a [[PrisonersLastMeal last meal, meal]], but passes and dithers on every option just because she can't or won't cook them, driving him to screaming agony, which her boss mistakes for actual torture.


Added DiffLines:

* PrisonersLastMeal: Bean takes up an apprenticeship with the kingdom's torturer and executioner. She is given instructions to torture one prisoner and "get him to his last meal." She'd rather not torture the prisoner and, instead, skips straight to asking him what he wants for a last meal. Ironically, Bean's hemming and hawing over the prisoner's requests for a last meal (as if she had to eat the same meal, as well) becomes torturous for the prisoner, who cries out in agony, earning her boss's praise.

Added DiffLines:

* CookingTheLiveMeal: Lured into Hansel's and Gretel's gingerbread house, Elfo is fed with candy (implied to be laced with hypnotics) and unwisely lies down to sleep in a pan, and is predictably shoved into an oven to be roasted, with Hansel and Gretel being unmoved by both his cries of pain and his promises to show them to his pot of gold. Fortunately Bean and Luci arrive at the gingerbread house a little later and save him. Somewhat inconsistently, Hansel's and Gretel's cellar also houses a butcher shop with plenty of body parts of their victims lying around.

I Ate What clean up. The trope is when a character eats something, unaware of what they are consuming, and then reacts in disgust after they find out what it is. Misuse will be deleted or moved to another trope when applicable. Administrivia.Zero Context Examples will be removed or commented out depending on the amount of context within the entry. Also, I Ate What is not a character trope.


** When Bean sits down for lunch with Hansel and Gretel, she bites into a piece of "turkey" leg that turns out to be a ''[[IAteWhat person's leg]]'', and immediately jumps to the horrific conclusion that she was served Elfo; but Gretel replies that elf is "dessert meat", and that Elfo is still cooking in the oven. It doesn't make the whole situation any less disgusting though.

Bean tries bonding with the witch, seeing a bit of herself on the old woman. Stan throws out his back and is unable to kill Gwen, so Bean is promoted to executioner and has to be the one to execute the witch. Elfo runs away from Bunty, finally fed up with being treated as a baby and goes to the Enchanted Forest alone. Bean can't bring herself to execute Gwen both due to being extremely nervous and believing there might be more to the witch than just being a cackling WickedWitch. She is ridiculed by her entire kingdom and decides she may not be suited to live in a city. She leaves Dreamland with Luci and they find out they're on Elfo's trail on the forest.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Bunty mistakenly yells at Bean, calling her a strumpet, whom she'd apparently previously told to stay away from her house. "Strumpet" being another word for someone who works in TheOldestProfession.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Zog is understandably angry at Bean for the wild party she threw while he was away during the previous episode, especially since Vikings used it to invade and try to take over Dreamland.

Though in all fairness, since his own reckless behavior drives Bean up a wall, it’s no wonder she doesn’t feel the need to adhere to him.

Added DiffLines:

* DangerousBackswing: While Bean is trapped in the dark cellar of Hansel's and Gretel's gingerbread house of horrors, she faces Hansel who advances on her with a pitchfork, while Gretel is creeping up behind her back unseen. As Bean swings a double-bladed axe over her head, intending to strike at Hansel, she accidentally kills Gretel by hitting her in the head, then strikes at Hansel, killing him too.

* LockedAwayInAMonastery: King Zog tries to send off Bean to a convent of nuns to punish her for the last episode's party. Unsurprisingly, a promiscuous sinner like Bean has trouble fitting in with a bunch of pious prudes. When the nuns see Luci's tail peeking out from under her robes, they kick her out and send her back home.

* FreezeFrameBonus: Blink and you'll miss it, but one of the skulls in Hansel and Gretel's butchering room has three eye holes, implying some relation to Odval.
