* AdaptationalNiceGuy: "Rumpelstiltskin" (who later decides to call himself Jack) in "A Mixed Up Fairytale" isn't scheming to take a woman's baby, even if she made a bargain with him. Instead, he offers to rescue Cinderella from a locked tower if she guesses his name; when she forgets, he decides to rescue her anyway and changes his name since even he can't remember it.


Added DiffLines:

* EpicFail:
** Rumplestiltskin can't remember his own name in "A Mixed-Up Fairytale." After forgetting too many times, he asks Cinderella to call him Jack instead.
** Keiko tries to summon a rabbit out of a hat for Jared, Zoe, and David. It only works for David; with Jared, she summons a carrot, which he proceeds to eat. She brings a ringing telephone for Zoe, who answers and finds out it's her grandmother. As Keiko puts it in Ubbi Dubbi, "Zub-oops!"

* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: Zoe in one skit tries to use a storybook machine to go into the books she has for summer reading. Tom Sawyer makes her paint his fence, the Macbeth witches try to eat her, and the Queen of Hearts sentences her to death. When she's back, Zoe picks up the books and says she should have just read them from the start rather than try to get killed.


Added DiffLines:

* ThreeTwoOne: In "A Mixed-Up Fairytale", the evil queen kisses the frog in hopes of getting a prince out of the deal. After warning her that kisses don't work that way with fairy tale crossovers, he nonchalantly checks an invisible watch, saying, "Three, two, one" as she starts changing into a cat.


Added DiffLines:

* WrongGenreSavvy: The evil queen from Snow White in "A Mixed-Up Fairy Tale" thinks that if she kisses the talking frog, she'll get a prince since that's how his story goes. He warns her that they're from two different fairy tales, so kisses will work differently. She doesn't listen. Cue the queen being turned into a cat rather than getting a prince after pecking him on his froggy cheek.

Tomboy and Girly Girl is a trope about two different archetypes of girls being juxtaposed for contrast. Splitting up the contrast breaks the trope, but since these two archtypes are each listed as different tropes...
