* NoTimeToExplain: Tracker says this after he cures Hefty and Duncan [=McSmurf=] of smurfnip intoxication right in the middle of a duel with each other, saying that they need to find the Smurfs Papa Smurf sent into the forest to find more smurfnip before Gargamel finds them.

Hefty and Duncan pretty much figure out that it was Gargamel behind the smurfnip-tainted smurfberries they had eaten.

* ClosestThingWeGot: When the village is affected by the smurfnip-laced smurfberries, Tracker and Sickly must work together to restore the Smurfs to normal and mix up the antidote to smurfnip intoxication.

-----
!!This story provides the following examples of:
* CigaretteOfAnxiety: Grouchy tries to resist the temptation of smoking a smurfnip cigarette, but ends up succumbing to it and almost being arrested by Brainy and Hefty posing as police officers.
* DrugsAreBad: Papa Smurf has Tapper head a campaign to show that smurfnip is ''supposedly'' bad for the other Smurfs. The true [[AnAesop Aesop]] of the story is more treating recreational drug users like criminals is ''bad'', as Hefty and Brainy go around throughout the story as police officers that bust Smurfs for even having a smurfnip joint in their possession.
* EverybodyMustGetStoned: The Smurfs eating smurfnip-laced smurfberries, with one of the Smurfs actually singing a Smurf version of a Bob Dylan song.
* FantasticDrug: Smurfnip, which is used as a stand-in for pot with the associated MarijuanaIsLSD trope. A telltale way to know that someone is stoned on smurfnip is that the whites of their eyes turn green.
* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: Handy creates a pair of glasses called the Hallucinator, which is supposed to simulate the visual effects of being under the influence of smurfnip (including a rainbow-colored haze). They were originally created as a tool for Smurfs to say no to smurfnip. By the end of the story, Vanity wears them because he likes looking at himself while wearing them.
* GovernmentDrugEnforcement: Empath mentions that all Psyches in Psychelia are required to take a drug called psychelium, which inhibits their ability to express emotions.
* HighOnCatnip: Gargamel sees Azrael staggering to the door baked on catnip.
* [[MarijuanaIsLSD Smurfnip Is LSD]]: One of Smurfette's hallucinations while under the influence is seeing Vexy and Hackus from ''Film/TheSmurfs2''. Also in the story, Handy created a special pair of glasses that simulate the visual effects of being under the influence of smurfnip.
