* NoEnding: A rather infamous example. Zim and Dib have fully transformed into bologna sausages. They barricade themselves in an abandoned house from the army of starving dogs. Then the two sit on a couch, where Dib calls Zim a jerk. Cue credits. Dib also implies in a later episode that they eventually managed to have an UnexplainedRecovery.

* SlowTransformation: Dib only notices that something's wrong with him the next day, and he becomes more and more bologna-like as several days goes on. Downplayed with Zim, as it turns out his race is affected by the transformation much faster than humans.

* FailedASpotCheck: Zim stares right at Dib's hand when he offers it and somehow doesn't notice the tack taped to it.


Added DiffLines:

* LethalJokeItem: At first, it seems like Zim just stuck a tack on Dib's chair for his butt to land on as a prank. It's only after Dib gets far along in his transformation that he realizes the tack injected bologna DNA into his body. He then uses the same tack on Zim by tricking him into a handshake.

* BrickJoke: Near the beginning of the episode, when Dib's transformation is in its early stages, he tells Gaz to taste him because he's delicious, which creeps her out. Towards the end, when he's looking more like a sausage, Gaz finally obliges Dib, taking a piece of him off and eating it.
