History WhatAnIdiot / FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends

* In the episode "Crime After Crime", Bloo is trying to get Mr. Herriman to send him to his room [[DeniedFoodAsPunishment with no supper]] because Frankie is making a disgusting gruel called "it". However, his actions only end up helping the rabbit, who is trying to hide his carrot addiction--and is ''extremely'' grateful to Bloo for it, to the latter's annoyance.\\

* In the episode, "One False Movie", The school principal is impressed with Mac's film about Foster's (which Bloo added armpit fart sound effects into) and enters Mac to represent his school in the Annual State-wide Elementary School film festival. He gives Mac a $500 budget and the idea for the film, which Bloo helps make into a movie called "[[BMovie T-Rex-A-Tron Alien Wolf III: A Prequel In Time]]". After putting a lot of effort and money into the film [[note]] Far beyond the budget Mac's Principal gave him. Specificially, Bloo had Creator/TomHanks play a robot, and a [=CGI=] Eduardo when the real one refused to be involved in the project. To get the money for those, Mac had to sell his [[Franchise/StarWars Space Wars]] action figure collection and Madame Foster's antiques (which she unknowingly bought back anyway) [[/note]], the film is finally complete and Bloo throws a party to celebrate its completion.\\

* In "Bus the Two of Us", Frankie and Bloo return at Foster's after running errands. Frankie's arms are full with the groceries.\\

'''Instead:''' Frankie, being too occupied with the groceries, ''leaves the keys in the ignition''. When she asks Bloo to close the bus doors, Bloo gets the [[SarcasmMode bright]] idea to take the bus on a joyride.\\

* In "Neighbor Pains", Bloo gets a little too carried away with bothering Old Man Rivers, a cranky neighbor who hates imaginary friends, on "Adopt-A-Thought-Saturday" by using the adoption forms to trash his yard. Wilt and Bloo are the only ones who know about this.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Wilt and Bloo to tell the crowd of people waiting to adopt imaginary friends that there has been a delay and to wait patiently while they explain the situation to Frankie and Mr. Herriman. After that, the latter can either print out new forms for the applicants, or tell them that recent circumstances have forced them to cancel the adoption process for today and come back tomorrow. Smooth sailing indeed.\\
'''Instead:''' Wilt and Bloo attempt to retrieve the forms from Old Man Rivers themselves, merely telling Eduardo to wait until they return, and informing no one about what has happened.\\
'''As a Result:''' Disastrous confusion breaks out, with unhappy customers, wrongful accusations, characters misinterpreting information passed to one another...[[ArsonMurderandJaywalking and Mac missing out on an Orlando Bloo charade.]]

* In the Halloween episode "Nightmare on Wilson Way", the whole Fosters gang has gotten sick of Bloo's constant Halloween pranks and decide to get back at him by making him think he started a zombie apocalypse after seemingly killing Mr. Herriman with the old snake in a can. Thinking that the entire house has turned into zombies, Bloo panics and goes to the room [[ItMakesSenseInContext where he had Mac tied up]], loads him up with sugar, and has him break out of his restraints and running across the hall which ends with Mac escaping and Bloo at the mercy of Herriman and friends.\\

* In the special "Destination: Imagination" we have World, an imaginary friend that is a face, who can move everywhere, except things that already have faces, and he can take control of the thing on which he stays. This friend lives in a toy box in which there is a magical world that the friend can control. Because he seemingly locked the kid who created in the box with him, the kids parents take their son from there and lock World in the box using chains then send him to Foster's with a note that says "Do not open". Frankie finds the box and takes it in the attic, then opens the box to help the friend inside. She ends up inside the box and quickly befriends World and after a while she decides to stay there, because he respects and her and helps her relax and have fun like a good friend, while at Fosters she works really hard without receiving enough respect. Without her Foster's is a mess and her friends, Mac, Bloo, Coco, Eduardo and Wilt get worried about her and go inside the box to search for her. World doesn't want them to take Frankie away from him, because he doesn't want to be alone again, so he tries multiple times to stop them. Eventually, they manage to find Frankie and find out that she wasn't held captive as they thought and they tell her she must come back, because they need her to do her chores. She believes that they only came to save her, so that she will work for them and that they don't care about her, so she gets mad, tells her she doesn't want to return, then walks away. World knows what happened and he wants to get rid of them.\\

* In "Where There's a Wilt There's a Way", Wilt keeps getting forced to do demeaning tasks for the ungrateful people of his home city and he is unable to refuse because he [[ExtremeDoormat can’t say no]] no matter what circumstances. Wilt is sent to go get potato chips for Bloo to eat while watching the basketball game, but each time he fills Bloo's bowl with chips back up to being full, he gets interrupted by someone asking him for a favor. The first time he realizes that the friends who asked him for the favor eat up Bloo's chips, and so he has to constantly refill the bowl.\\

* The episode "Everybody Knows It's Bendy", such that even the writer Creator/LaurenFaust [[CreatorBacklash publicly apologized]] for writing the episode.

* In "Cookie Dough", heavy rain occurs and they leak into the Foster's home because the roof is full of holes. Madame Foster then asks Mr. Herriman to check and see how much money they stored in their emergency fund inside their safe.\\

* In "Frankie My Dear", Mac and Bloo suspect that Frankie is really in love with a pizza guy, although the two are after Frankie's affection themselves and so Mac and Bloo pelt the pizza guy (Chris) with paper balls to scare him away, and as Chris flees to drive away in his pizza car Bloo yells at him not to steal Frankie ever again. Chris then gets confused since he wasn't in love with Frankie and asks Bloo to elucidate on that.\\

* In "Squeakerboxxx", when Mac and the Imaginary Friends go to the Game Hive arcade, they pool their tickets together and use them to buy a rubber elephant that squeaks when squeezed, which costs 500 tickets. Frankie decides that since they're going to share the elephant, each of them will play with it for two hours per day. First Coco, then Eduardo, then Wilt, then Mac, then Bloo. While Eduardo treats the elephant like his baby, Wilt plays with it like a basketball, and Coco and Mac stare at it, Bloo becomes addicted to squeaking it, to the point where after Frankie takes it away the end of the day, he sneaks into her bedroom and squeezes it too hard, accidentally pushing the squeaker out and leaving it unable to squeak as a result. When Mac finds out, he takes Bloo to the Game Hive to win a new rubber elephant before Coco's turn is up and Eduardo finds out that the old one is broken.\\

* The episode "Everybody Knows It's Bendy" is such a massive IdiotPlot that even the writer Creator/LaurenFaust [[CreatorBacklash publicly apologized]] for writing the episode.

* In "The Trouble with Scribbles", it turns out that Mr. Herriman hides [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries "scribbles"]], imaginary friends that have the body of 3D scribbled drawings inside a closet as he feels that they are a nuisance similar to a dust storm.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' For Mr. Herriman to lock up the closet big time, just like Frankie suggested.\\
'''Instead:''' He simply just keeps a sign on it saying "STAY AWAY -- DO NOT ENTER" and defends his decision not to put up locks because he claims "self-restraint, Miss Francis, is the only lock that door requires".
* In "Dinner is Swerved", Mac and Bloo are hungry and stuck on the top floor of Foster's when it's dinner time and the dining room is all the way back in the first floor, but they can't find their way back because Foster's is a complicated physics-defying house. They locate Duchess, and when she refuses to help them get back down to the first floor, Bloo grabs her telephone and threatens that unless he gets directions, he'll "do it", although Duchess complains she doesn't care if Bloo breaks it.\\

* In "Partying is Such Sweet Soiree", [[WildTeenParty Bloo throws a wild house party]] filled with sugary sweets. When Mac shows up, Bloo tries enticing him with sugar despite knowing Mac's not allowed to have it. Mac keeps telling him to stop.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Mac to keep his mouth closed so he doesn't get any.\\
'''Instead:''' Mac screams "[[BigNo NOOOOOOOOO!]]" as a drop of fruit punch lands into his open mouth.\\
'''The result:''' [[SanitySlippage Mac's sugar rush is triggered]] and he proceeds to ruin Bloo's party.

** Bloo's [[DidntThinkThisThrough foolishness and impulsiveness]] do not help matters. At one point Bloo catches Bendy writing on the walls.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Bloo to listen to Mac and get him sugar-free snacks.\\

'''Instead:''' They all repeat every single nonsensical move Cheese makes, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero caking the house with mud and destroying it in the process]].\\

* The episode "Everybody Knows It's Bendy" is such a massive IdiotPlot that even the writer Creator/LaurenFaust [[OldShame publicly apologized]] for writing the episode.

'''Instead:''' Everybody allows Mac and Bloo to knock them down as they are running down the halls. Just as Mac is darting out the front door Herriman grabs Bloo (while Bloo still thinks he's a zombie and is begging for his life) and 'then' tells him it was all a prank. And to top it off, Frankie tells Bloo that he is in trouble for feeding Mac sugar while he thought that he and his friend were about to die. Meanwhile, Mac is again running around town in his underwear and terrorizing some kids.

'''You'd Expect:''' For all the friends to realize that they've gone too far and break character for at least a few of them to slip into the room through the holes that they made in the door and stop Bloo from giving Mac(who was unaware of the prank)the candy and explain to them that it wasn't real and then have a good laugh.\\

'''You'd ALSO Expect:''' Someone to realize that they could just break one of the house's windows, go inside and unlock the door.\\

'''Instead:''' They all repeat every single nonsensical move Cheese makes, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero caking the house with mud and destroying it in the process]].
