After being unable to stop ants from stealing his picnic food, Piglet becomes depressed about his short height. The others attempt to help by fooling him into thinking he's grown, only to create further problems.



* FeeFiFauxPas: After Piglet trods off in despair at the beginning, Tigger expresses his sincere sympathy with "the poor little runt". He gets glances from Christopher Robin and Pooh, and a glare from Rabbit.

* HeelFaceTurn: Species example. The episode's first scene is of an ant acting belligerent and taunting the heroes, distracting them while his fellows steal Piglet's picnic. In fairness, Piglet's act of kindness some other ants (unclear if the same ants at the beginning) later in the episode, earn him their gratitude and praise. They even get to join the party at the end.

** AndroclesLion
** BookEnds: The ants' antics at the beginning are what unintentionally cause Piglet's HeightAngst throughout the episode. It's also the ants who semi-intentionally help him get over it.
** RuleOfSymbolism: Ants are very strong creatures despite their sheer tininess compared to much bigger animals.



* ScullyBox: InUniverse: Piglet has boxes tied to his feet so that he would think he was taller.

to:

* ReplacementGoldfish: After Piglet leaves for being too small, Tigger and Rabbit suggest getting a "new Piglet" to be Pooh's best friend. The "new Piglet" is Eeyore in one of Piglet's shirts. The attempt (and the attempt to rectify the first one), predictably, fails.
** MoodWhiplash: These hilarious scenes are intercut with scenes of Piglet continuing to wallow in his despair of being too small...even as he helps ants in their plights that prove him otherwise.

* StockSoundEffects: All we hear of Pooh, Rabbit, and Tigger's unseen placing of the boxes on Piglet's feet are comically loud construction noises, complete with saws, chainsaws, and jackhammers.

to:

* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: Thinking he's become bigger, Piglet becomes more smug towards his friends and puts himself in dangerous situations like stepping across a cliff and confronting the crows in Rabbit's garden. This last one results in the crows tearing apart the devices that made him think he was big, leaving poor Piglet back where he started.
* BackwardsBinoculars: The guys put these on Piglet so that everything would look smaller, making him think he was bigger.
* HeightAngst: Piglet is upset about being too small. His friends try to help by making him think he's grown bigger, but that falls apart after the encounter with the crows. Later, Piglet helps out some ants, which helps him realize he's just the right size for him.
