16* One-One tells Tulip the next car should be the fart car, where everything is a fart. After being told so for the last eight cars, Tulip isn't convinced this is actually the case. However, it turns out indeed to be the fart car.
17--> '''Tulip:''' *coughs* Aw! That was gross! Why does that exist?
18** [[BrickJoke And later]], while One-One is being rolled around by corgis:
19--->'''Sad-One:''' ''I miss the fart caaaaaaaaar!''

22!!Book One
23[[folder:"The Grid Car"]]
24* Tulip and Mikayla's first conversation.
25--> '''Tulip:''' What are you gonna do while I'm at game design camp? Die of boredom, probably?\
26'''Mikayla:''' Ugh, ''yes''! Way to abandon me in my time of need.
27* As Tulip and Mikayla are walking from the bus, Tulip is [[BizarreTasteInFood munching on a whole raw onion]] similarly to how most people eat apples. Mikayla even jokes that the camp won't like Tulip stinking up the whole state with her onion breath.
28--> '''Tulip:''' Hey, it's not my fault I have a sophisticated palate.\
29'''Mikayla:''' You have a ''gross'' palate.
30* Tulip pretending to have a conversation with the ''Coding is Cool'' guy on her book cover. She calls his mustache a ferret he needs removed from his face.
31* After Tulip wakes up from entering the train, she starts talking to herself.
32-->'''Tulip:''' Ugh. What the... D'aah! Did I just hallucinate a train station? Well, that's... boring. "Tulip, we missed you at game design camp!" "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't quite make it because I decided to fall asleep in a field and dream about ''outdated modes of transportation''!"
33* Tulip hitting One-One and activating the robot. They both then spend a moment screaming at each other.
34-->'''Glad-One:''' Are you my mum?\
35'''Tulip:''' What? ''What''? Am I what?\
36'''Glad-One:''' Are you my mum?\
37'''Tulip:''' No!\
38'''Sad-One:''' ''[monotone]'' So you've come to bring me the sweet release of death?\
39'''Tulip:''' Also, no?
40** One-One talks about how he's looking for his mom, but isn't sure if she's large or small.
41--->'''Glad-One:''' I'm looking for my mother. I don't know what she looks like, though. She might be large.\
42'''Sad-One:''' Or small, like a nurturing bagel. Are you looking for your bagel mother, too?
43* Tulip gets annoyed at One-One's questions and asks him to go back to being a snowman, or whatever he is.
44-->'''Sad-One:''' ''[giddy]'' Oh my gosh, what am I?
45* The group comes across a door and Sad-One's solution?
46-->'''Sad-One:''' The only way out is through hypothermia.
47** One-One is more surprised that Tulip can reach doorknobs than the fact that she solved what he thought was an impossible puzzle.
48* Tulip gets excited at the possibilities of what's in the other train cars and excitedly dashes off.
49-->'''Sad-One:''' You'll probably be disappointed. ''[they come to a seemingly empty train car]'' Called it.
50* One-One tells Tulip his name, and she admits that it's weird. Unlike her name, which she then lampshades.
51-->'''Tulip:''' Unlike my name, which is Tulip and is perfectly normal.
52* Tulip gets chased by roach dogs and One-One is singing [[SoundtrackDissonance "Yakety Sax"]] as she runs.
53-->'''Tulip:''' What song are you singing?!\
54'''Sad-One:''' It's a wacky "getting chased" song.\
55'''Glad-One:''' I made it up!
56* One-One ends up making a house when Tulip asks for a wall as she runs from the roach-dog.
57-->'''Glad-One:''' It's more of a house, instead of a wall.\
58'''Sad-One:''' Do you want me to start over? I'll just start over.\
59'''Tulip:''' '''[[BigNo NO]]'''! Don't start over!
60[[/folder]]
61
62[[folder:"The Beach Car"]]
63* Tulip going through the different train cars. One has a bunch of things with gnome heads and bears that shoot arrow spells out of their eyes. And they chase Tulip repeating the word "spells". (Officially, they're the Gnome-Wizards.)
64** In a pinball machine-like car, Sad-One nudges his ball in the opposite direction towards what he thinks is the gutter.
65--->'''Sad-One:''' This is where I belong.
66* The cat offering Randall a pipe that they rebrand as a [[MundaneMadeAwesome "doughnut holer"]]. She demonstrates this by punching a hole in a hat and a piece of paper.
67* Tulip quickly going through her backstory to the cat.
68* Randall carries things by putting them in his watery body. You can see his "doughnut holer" and later a blade of grass float inside his body.
69* Sad-One's reaction to Tulip trading the flower he gave her:
70-->'''Sad-One:''' My mechanical heart breaks again, I hope the warranty's still good.
71* As Tulip realizes the mistake she made of giving One-One to the cat, she bargains with the multiple Randalls that she will buy his donut holer if he helps her.
72-->'''Randall:''' [[ThatCameOutWrong Hop into my body!]] It's not as weird as it sounds.
73* When Randall gets into The Cat’s shuttlecraft by splitting himself up and slipping through the cracks, all the tiny Randalls immediately start throwing sales pitches at her.
74-->'''Tulip:''' Randall can you slip through the cracks? \
75'''Randall:''' [[MetaphorIsMyMiddleName "Slip through the cracks" is my middle name]]. Randall Slip Through the Cracks Randall.
76[[/folder]]
77
78[[folder:"The Corgi Car"]]
79* Tulip quickly passing by all the other cars and ignoring the occupants. Even telling a skeleton who asks if she can spare a moment replies with, "No time!"
80--> '''Skeleton:''' You're telling me? I'm dead!
81* The corgi whose job it is to blow the royal horn apparently just likes to blow it whenever he gets a chance.
82* Ugly Irwin, who's actually a large dog with flowing hair, but Atticus shows disgust at.
83* Sad-One glumly telling a corgi enjoying his sunbathing that one day the sun will eventually explode and disappear. So he advises the dog to enjoy it while he still can. The dog quietly slips away with his ears back.
84* Glad-One hops outside the door to see if he's still in danger, leading to Sad-One getting out paper and a pencil.
85-->'''Sad-One:''' I guess I should start writing his obituary...\
86'''Atticus:''' Awfully morbid little thing, aren't you?\
87'''Sad-One:''' Yes.
88* Apparently even sentient corgis still refuse to go outside without someone holding the door and asking "Outside? Outside?" repeatedly.
89-->'''Tulip:''' We're not doing this for every door!
90* Atticus begging Tulip for her help, and admitting he doesn't like doing it, unless for a tasty-tasty treat.
91** Before walking through the stream, he also warns Tulip that the corgis are a proud people and hate being picked up. Tulip asks why he had to warn her about that, and GilliganCut to Atticus squirming in her arms as she quickly trudges through the water and yelling at him to stop wiggling.
92* Later, Tulip and Atticus eventually find the monster... which turns out to be a spider whose shadow was amplified by an orb. Atticus then eats the spider.
93-->'''Atticus:''' We've destroyed the monster! I thought victory would taste less musty.
94* Sad-One is disappointed that Atticus survived the encounter with the Steward.
95-->'''Sad-One:''' I'll just keep your obituary on file.
96* Tulip asks Atticus how to get the door to open and writes it down. Atticus instructs Tulip to get to the handle, and then twist the knob.
97--> '''Tulip:''' (''Beat'') ''That's how all doors work''!\
98'''Atticus:''' My people have been working on this technology for ''decades''.
99** The fact that corgis have spent that long of time to figure out doorknobs.
100[[/folder]]
101
102[[folder:"The Crystal Car"]]
103* Glad-One refers to the Steward, only for Tulip to correct him and start this interaction.
104-->'''Tulip:''' One-One, that thing wasn't your friend.\
105'''Glad-One:''' Gasp! Goodness! Was it my mum?\
106'''Tulip:''' It was trying to hurt us.\
107'''Sad-One:''' ''[{{beat}}]'' ...the question stands...
108* Tulip is momentarily disgusted that a crystal bird pooped on her, but then is fascinated by the crystal poop.
109* One-One's misinterpretation of the crystal man's instructions.
110-->'''Glad-One:''' Eat some air!\
111'''Sad-One:''' Eating air makes me burpy.\
112'''Tulip:''' I don't think you can breathe.\
113'''Sad-One:''' You never take my psychosomatic conditions seriously.
114* One of the ''many'' songs Tulip tries singing is a parody of "My Heart Will Go On", from a version of ''Film/Titanic1997'' that was apparently about the ''Hindenburg'' disaster.
115* One-One tries "singing" that's just making dial-up modem noises.
116--> '''Sad-One:''' (''beat'') Connection failed.
117* The list of the types of songs Tulip listed out were a variety of love songs, and then "celebrities singing to draw attention to important social issues (?)"
118* The [[FailureMontage montage reel]] itself. Tulip gets increasingly exasperated as sings various songs she thinks could be emotional. It's especially hilarious since Tulip is painfully off-key. And, all of it is done [[SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct beautifully and hilariously]] by [[Creator/AshleyJohnson Ashley Johnson]].
119* Atticus's "song" is a spoken ballad about two brothers that goes on for a very, very long time. Once finished, he claims it cannot be abridged.
120* Tulip is [[GuiltyPleasures mortified]] when the song that unlocks the door is a song her family used to sing along to on car trips: "Word Up" by Music/{{Cameo}}.
121** As the music starts, the whistling noise at the beginning of the song is seen performed by two crystal birds.
122* The door out of the crystal forest is unlocked by a massive crystal giant who pulls the replacement staircase out of his mouth, then unlocks the door with a key that's so comically small compared to his body that it's a wonder he can turn it.
123[[/folder]]
124
125[[folder:"The Cat's Car"]]
126* The group decide to ignore The Cat and continue on to the next car.
127-->'''Glad-One:''' Good-bye, former kidnapper!\
128'''Sad-One:''' I miss you already and it's emotionally confusing...
129* This is a major WhamEpisode, chock-full of NightmareFuel. However, the scene of Tulip hallucinating Atticus as a commercial spokesperson (who is fully anthropomorphized, for some reason), with One-One as an actor ([[WholesomeCrossdresser wearing female clothes and a wig]]) provides some well-needed levity.
130* At the very beginning of the episode, Tulip thanks a team of baseball-playing dinosaurs and says they will never forget them. [[ImmediateSelfContradiction Only to immediately state that she already forgot their names]], once the door is closed.
131* It turns out that, without the NostalgiaFilter, the dolphin show she saw with her parents actually involved a sickly dolphin tiredly swimming through a hoop in a filthy marine park on a dreary day.
132-->'''Tulip:''' Oh, so ''that's'' why they closed [=DolphWorld=].
133* What isn't funny: Tulip's NightmareSequence of how she wants to remember her parents getting divorced. What is - a HellHound being part of the vision... played by [[CallBack Ugly Irwin]].
134* After getting out of the tape and realizing the cat tricked her, Tulip notices her number is going down on her hand before shoving a glove over it. The cat tells her that it must be a good thing, causing this bout of snark from Tulip.
135-->'''Tulip:''' [[SarcasmMode Oh, wow! So it's a good thing my number's going down? I'm growing as a person?]] Thanks, train. So glad an inanimate object ''likes'' me!
136[[/folder]]
137
138[[folder:"The Unfinished Car"]]
139* When Tulip finds the gravity-shifting stairs, Atticus remarks that he always suspected stairs can't be trusted.
140** It's a combination of the beat the editing gives you to get the joke, but also Ernie Hudson's deadpan delivery of the line.
141* Atticus guilt-trips Tulip into letting them stay and hang out for a bit with a classic dog move, the confused head-tilt.
142* After One-one splits up and goes wandering off:
143-->'''Tulip:''' Hey, maybe we shouldn't all go [[{{Pun}} splitting up!]] ''[pretends to do a rimshot]''
144* As Tulip tries to clean up the jam, she finds an orb underneath and picks it up curiously. When it reveals that it turns the jam gray, [[OhCrap she quickly shoves the orb back into place]] and making a note not to touch the orbs.
145* There is this one angry turtle who is talking to his boss on a (disconnected) phone, explaining why he is going to be late for work [[SkewedPriorities and continuing to do so]] while One-One is [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt literally tearing his world apart]].
146[[/folder]]
147
148[[folder:"The Chrome Car"]]
149* When Tulip's reflection begins to talk to her, she asks if she knows about ''everything'' she does, like picking her nose. She then quietly apologizes for doing that, and her reflection admits that that was pretty gross.
150* Hoping to get help, Tulip tries to talk to the mirror counterparts of One-One and Atticus. Only to reveal that Mirror!One-One is TheStoic, while Mirror!Atticus is a [[NervousWreck panicked mess]], who can't stand the real Atticus barking at him.
151* When the Mirror Police show up, some Mirror paramedics drag Mirror!One-One and Atticus away, giving them blankets and hot cocoa. Mirror!One-One can drink it, despite lacking a mouth.
152* While distracting one of the Mirror Police by trying to pull off his mask, One-One cheerfully tells Tulip [[BlackComedy "We're melting people!"]]
153-->'''Sad-One:''' So~, what's new with you?
154* The mirror cop below begging his partner not to leave him.
155-->'''Mirror Cop:''' ''The buddy system!''
156[[/folder]]
157
158[[folder:"The Ball Pit Car"]]
159* One of the cars is based off business reports. On the wall is a pie chart that has "The Four 'Rs' of Business": "Revenue", "Reports", "Research", and "Rest". [[BlackComedy The "Rest" slice fell out of the pie chart and on the floor.]]
160* Tulip lets One-One use a toothbrush, despite him not having any teeth. One-One soon comes back with toothpaste foam all over himself.
161-->'''Glad-One:''' My tartar is under control!
162* How does Tulip solve the puzzle to get out of the car they're in? [[ItMakesSenseInContext She declares bankruptcy.]] The arrow she rides eventually falls on [[VisualPun The Bottom Line]].
163* The antsy way One-One fidgets when Tulip teases him about how they ''can'' but probably ''shouldn't'' play in the ball pit. All with him making whimpering and pleading sounds.
164* Atticus isn't a good boy. He's a good ''man''.
165* [[WhamEpisode This is one of the least funny episodes of the show]], except for the scene near the beginning where Khaki Bottoms calls for help, with Atticus commenting that they may never find him, only to reveal his foot sticking out [[RightBehindMe right next to him]].
166* When Tulip attempts to walk a slipping staircase, One-One points out that she isn't wearing a helmet. Tulip's response? A smug "[[MundaneMadeAwesome I live dangerously.]]"
167* Another case of MundaneMadeAwesome: after Tulip goes through all of the ball pit games, Khaki Bottoms wants Tulip to engage in "The Feast of a Thousand Chicken Nuggets".
168[[/folder]]
169
170[[folder:"The Past Car"]]
171* Amelia's tape shows a flashback when her teacher chastises her on her creation and she gets bummed about it while Alrick seems to be a model student. Turns out Alrick ends up cheering her up by [[NotSoAboveItAll putting a whoopie cushion on the teacher's chair]], letting out a loud fart sound when she sits down and causing the entire class to laugh.
172* One-One rewinds the tape to the whoopie-cushion. And then tries to do so again. The Cat stops him, prompting a sharp whine from Sad-One.
173-->'''Sad-One:''' Fiiiiiinnnnneee.
174* Tulip needs some wires, and One-One starts dissecting the wires on the cat's shuttlecraft.
175-->'''Cat:''' Did you just break my shuttlecraft?\
176'''Sad-One:''' [[BluntYes Yes]], who's asking?
177[[/folder]]
178
179[[folder:"The Engine"]]
180* Tulip tells One-One to find a way to stop the train or the Steward. Sad-One's response?
181-->'''Sad-One:''' End it all, got it.
182* One-One walking beneath the Steward as she fights with Ghom Atticus, singing to the tune of "Wheels on the Bus".
183-->'''Glad-One:''' Looking for a way to stop the Steward,\
184Stop the Steward,\
185Stop the Steward. \
186Looking for a way to stop the Steward,\
187So we can turn evil Atticus back into a dog!\
188'''Sad-One:''' Ugh, too many syllables.
189* "Unbelievable. Again with the turtles."
190* Amelia's incredulity that Tulip would [[RunningGag keep a pipe in her backpack]], with Tulip retorting that it's a [[InsistentTerminology doughnut holer]].
191* Tulip messing up her shots and turning everything the blast touches into corgi shapes.
192* When the Conductor seemingly offers to make Tulip a car where her parents never got divorced, Tulip's response manages to be both a Crowning Moment of Awesome ''and'' Funny.
193-->'''Tulip:''' [[ShutUpHannibal You can't even make a car]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext WITHOUT ANY TURTLES IN IT!]]
194* One-One wasn't just looking for his mum. He was looking for the [[{{Pun}} motherboard]].
195[[/folder]]
196
197!!Book Two
198
199[[folder: "The Black Market Car"]]
200* One-One has apparently provided a pre-recorded orientation video for newcomers to the Infinity Train. Among the questions he speculates people will have are "Where am I? Why am I here? Are snacks provided?"
201* While the moment when Alan Dracula falls into a hole isn't very funny, the fact that he stays completely straight as he bounces around the branches is just hilarious.
202[[/folder]]
203
204[[folder: "The Family Tree Car"]]
205* Apparently, one of the cliques at Jesse's school is "the eraser kids", kids who [[CollectorOfTheStrange save and compare their eraser shavings from their classes]]. He admits it's not a very ''big'' group.
206* After discovering the wild growth of the family tree is caused by arguing, Jesse and M.T. start acting like OverlyPolitePals to counteract it.
207* M.T. finding out that Jesse's number has gone ''up'' to 32 and flicking him in the forehead. His initial number was ''31''.
208* According to Jesse's phone, the deer isn't the ''first'' animal [[CloudCuckoolander that he's put sunglasses on and named "Dracula"]].
209[[/folder]]
210
211[[folder: "The Map Car"]]
212* Alan Dracula spends most of the episode [[ExorcistHead spinning his head like a propeller]] for no reason at all, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent even in the background]]. MT uses him [[{{Helicritter}} as a boat propeller]], but no one otherwise acknowledges this in any way, indicating [[SeenItAll they are thoroughly used to him doing these kinds of things]].
213* While trying to figure out what Jesse's issue is, he mentions a story about a lunch lady who got mad at him for wasting food.
214-->'''M.T.:''' Sounds like that lunch lady had a problem.
215-->'''Jesse:''' Wait, you think Mrs. Graham is on here?
216-->'''M.T.:''' ''(remembering that there was a lunch lady back in The Beach Car two episodes ago)'' Yes, maybe?
217** According to WordOfGod, that lunch lady ''is'' Mrs. Graham so a school is missing both a swimmer and a lunch lady.
218* M.T. tries to swim out to the mermaids, walking into the water with her eyes closed. She doesn't realize until she actually gets all the way underwater that [[WalkDontSwim she can't float.]]
219-->'''M.T.:''' So anyway, I'm metal.
220** Jesse then swims out to them, and it turns out they're actually really small. [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight And he doesn't even comment on it]].
221[[/folder]]
222
223[[folder: "The Toad Car"]]
224* The very fact that there is a car that has nothing but a toad in it, with kicking it being the exit condition.
225[[/folder]]
226
227[[folder: "The Parasite Car"]]
228* According to Perry, besides his affection for M.T. and Jesse, Alan Dracula's entire mind is focused on grass.
229* To get through the Runway Car, M.T., Jesse and Perry have to model on a runway. Jesse wears a strapless blue dress ''over his regular clothes'', and M.T.'s act is just putting on a wig with pigtails and butterfly wings, waving her hands in the barest possible attempt at "dancing". And she somehow still gets an 8/10.
230** When she goes back through the car later, she runs it again.
231* Perry [[AccidentalMisnaming fails to call the right name]] to M.T., Jesse, and Alan Dracula every time he refers them. The wrong names he calls them are as follows:
232** M.T.: M.D.
233** Jesse: Jerome, Jiles, Jimmy
234** Alan Dracula: Alvin, Alden, Amblin Dunkula
235[[/folder]]
236
237[[folder: "The Lucky Cat Car"]]
238* MT makes fun of Jesse for thinking the Lucky Cat is alive... [[ArbitrarySkepticism until he points out that's not out of the question on the Train.]]
239* MT and Jesse’s discussion about mirror anatomy at the beginning, culminating in Jesse claiming [[InsaneTrollLogic the reason blood cells are shaped like inner tubes is so they can float.]] Neither of them know enough about biology to confirm this.
240* The Toad is now running a booth in this car. He still gets kicked, but now he's ''paid'' for it. He also apparently calls himself "Terrence" now.
241-->'''Jesse:''' Wait, your name was Terrence the whole time?\
242'''Toad:''' Nope.\
243(''awkward silence'')\
244'''MT:''' Okay...
245* Greige (The crystal man with the top hat from "The Crystal Car") is shown playing a ''DDR''-like game called ''Dance Or Else''.
246* At the Spell Shooting Gallery, Jesse fires one of his guns at MT's body, causing the beam to hit multiple targets at once. Once the wizard catches onto them, the two flee.
247* One of the games is [[BlackComedy trying to get a Ghom figure to chase after a person]] across the finish line.
248* M.T. tries to play a "Guess Your Weight" game, hoping to take advantage of the fact she's heavier than she looks. [[GoneHorriblyRight She breaks the scale]], forcing her and Jesse to flee from the angry carnival worker.
249* The RunningGag of Alan Dracula's fascination with the fake grass lining the bottom of a crane game. [[BrickJoke Perry did say Alan Dracula's mind is almost entirely focused on grass.]]
250[[/folder]]
251
252[[folder:"The Mall Car"]]
253* One of the Apex kids tries to kick MT in the shins, but since she's made of metal [[AttackBackfire he just injures his foot]].
254* A little bit of BlackComedy when Jesse gets a brand new harpoon pack, and [[RecklessGunUsage proceeds to point them at his own eyes.]]
255[[/folder]]
256
257[[folder:"The Wasteland"]]
258* Mace starts singing to the tune "I Saw Three Ships (Come Sailing In)" to taunt MT in the wasteland.
259* Alan Dracula manages to protect MT from the Ghoms by shaping his antlers into an enormous tumbleweed, which leaves his original body awkwardly dangling from inside.
260[[/folder]]
261
262[[folder: "The Tape Car"]]
263* After MT fails to take Lizard Girl's number, she has this to say:
264-->'''MT''': You won't give me a number but you'll give one to a girl who's sad about her pet lizard? ''Do I need a sad lizard story?!''
265* MT's tantrum near the end of the episode goes from sad to terrifying when the Steward shows up... [[MoodWhiplash then to hilarious]] when it turns out the Steward is being piloted by ''One-One''.
266-->'''Glad-One:''' I'd appreciate it if you'd stop breaking things.\
267'''Sad-One:''' [[ImpliedDeathThreat Unless you want me to start writing your obituary]].
268[[/folder]]
269
270[[folder: "The Number Car"]]
271* One-One commenting on MT's rampage.
272-->'''Glad-One:''' Do be careful. I think you accidentally slipped and broke a porter.\
273'''Sad-One:''' Many, many times in a row.
274* At the start of Jesse's second tape is Jesse watching One-One's introduction video, complete with One-One getting [[SidetrackedByTheAnalogy sidetracked trying to combine "escape" and "companionship"]]. The version of One-One watching the memory with MT immediately joins in with his pre-recorded self in trying to figure that out.
275* When MT shows up in Jesse's memories:
276-->'''Glad-One''': Ooh, look! You've got co-star billing now!\
277'''Sad-One''': [[TakeThat But you'll probably be paid less because Hollywood breeds gender inequality.]]
278* One-One insists that they can't just wake Jesse up on the spot, as there's an entire ''procedure'' for waking passengers up after they arrive. How does MT wake him up? By [[RunningGag flicking him on the forehead]].
279-->'''Glad-One''': It involves robots and coding and juice boxes and . . .
280* When they give Jesse's number start cycling through various non-number things (to illustrate just how impossible his problem is) it stops on a ;P emoji. It's like the train itself eventually just gave up trying to quantify his problem.
281* MT reflects Jesse's number on her hand as a loophole so she can get off the train. Glad-One is still hesitant about it, but Sad-One's reaction?
282--> '''Sad-One''': Yeah, sure, whatever.
283* Easy to miss, but when Alan Dracula flies off at the end, One-One casually refers to him ''as'' Alan Dracula, indicating [[HisNameReallyIsBarkeep that really]] [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike is his name]].
284** A.D. flying off is hilarious in and of itself; his feet just randomly start blasting out fire and he launches through the ceiling and into the distance like a rocket ship. It's completely inexplicable, even by his standards, and One-One [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight has absolutely zero response to it]].
285** In a meta sense, the fact that there's absolutely nothing special about Alan Dracula. He's not some EldritchAbomination from beyond the train, or a glitch, or a scrapped experiment that escaped. Nope, he's just a regular old denizen of the train, created by One-One, just like everyone else.
286* When M.T. finally starts thinking of a real name for herself, Jesse suggests "Dracula Two".
287* At the end of the episode, Jesse tries to be suave and give M.T. a forehead flick back, but since she's metal, he just hurts his finger.
288-->'''Lake:''' (laughing) Nerd.
289[[/folder]]
290
291!!Book Three
292

294* There is a turtle who previously appeared in "The Unfinished Car" as well, and he keeps talking to the phone to his superior under all circumstances, despite that [[CutPhoneLines the phone line is cut off]].

298* Upon looking through their stuff, Simon mentions they have "Arctic Cowboy" brand deodorant "for summer sports perspiration."
299-->'''Grace:''' That's good, because I don't need your ripeness giving away our position.
300-->'''Simon:''' A-ha-ha-ha-ha- ''[[HaHaHaNo (Simon abruptly stops laughing and gives Grace a look)]]''
301* When Grace tosses the chirping lizard into a bush, it makes a sound like a bomb whistle.

305* In the ocean-based car at the beginning of the episode, Hazel announces she's made a new friend: a piece of seaweed.
306-->'''Hazel:''' This is Louis. He's a good sort... '' ([[PoseOfSilence whispers conspiratorially]]) but barking mad.''

310* [[OhCrap Simon's reaction to seeing that Tuba's about to hit him with a snowball roughly the size of his body.]]
311-->'''Simon:''' "Armistice" means "no more snowballs!"
312-->'''Tuba:''' I know.
313* Several very tense moments in the episode are defused by a bear named Frank, whose presence -- and possession of a robe similar to that of the Cat -- goes suspiciously unexplained. [[FreezeFrameBonus though there’s a picture of the two of them hanging in her stairwell.]]
314-->'''Simon:''' Huh...?
315-->'''The Cat:''' You walked into ''my'' cabin.
316* Frank being a MomentKiller, making pancakes and asking if Hazel has allergies after a tense moment between The Cat and Simon.
317* Hazel is horrified at the idea of boiling Randall, only for him to reply that he "kinda likes it" and happily jump in the teakettle. The implications of this make the group go silent for a moment.
318-->'''Tuba:''' I don't judge.
319* Randall Slip Through The Cracks Randall is looking forward to negotiating peace terms... for a ''snowball fight''.

323* When Simon realizes he's teaming up with Tuba, he questions if he's stuck with her. Tuba snarks, "No, I'm stuck with ''you''."
324* It quickly becomes clear that the group is not a fan of Roy.
325-->'''Tuba:''' Roy is... at a 10, and I need him to be at about a 6.

329* Amelia explaining that One-One doesn't even know that the Apex exists and sees them all as numbers. Then she reads a notecard from One-One.
330-->'''Amelia:''' ''(with little enthusiasm)'' "Every passenger is important. Their well-being and progress is what the train is all about. All aboard the growth train. ''(imitates pulling a chain)'' Toot-toot. Whee! Sincerely, your Conductor, One-One."
331-->'''Hazel:''' ''(giggles)'' "You're weird."
332-->'''Amelia:''' ''(slightly annoyed)'' "YES, I AM!"
333** The last "One" in One-One is on the back of the card, so Amelia has to turn it over to read it. It's like we're hearing Glad One say the first half, and Sad One say the other half in his trademark despondent tone.
334** Amelia just stares at the ground after finishing her reading, as if thinking "this is my life forever now."
335* Simon drawing attention to the size of Amelia's number.
336-->'''Simon:''' The highest number we've ever seen. Maybe the highest there's ever been.\
337'''Amelia:''' Rude.
338* Amelia starts to interrogate the kids about the ejecting cars, but gets sidetracked.
339-->'''Amelia:''' Have there been objects that didn't match the environment? Phone booths? College campuses? A lot of turtles? Too many turtles? A number of turtles that makes you think "Why? Why turtles again?"
340* When The Cat tells Simon about how Amelia tried to kill her in the past as a warning against trusting her, The Cat admits that the fact that Amelia did try to kill her would probably ''endear'' her to Simon.
341* Simon asking The Cat why Grace has been acting differently.
342-->'''Simon:''' I want something that'll tell me what's wrong with Grace.
343-->'''The Cat:''' Oh, piffle. I can do that. One, she's very full of herself. Two, she has no respect for personal property. Three-
344-->'''Simon:''' This isn't a joke!

348* When Amelia offers Grace and Hazel eggs, Hazel asks for "6½", which is how old she is. Amelia looks at Grace, who shrugs, and then approximates out about 6 eggs, apologizing for them being burned, since since she's not good at eggs, or [[LethalChef any food]].
349** Then, when Hazel compliments her pancakes, Amelia comments on how she hates to turn down her first compliment in over 30 years, but since they just met, Hazel's never had them.
350* When Grace asks if Amelia is One-One's prisoner, briefly getting confused on how Amelia just calls him "One", Amelia ''bursts out laughing'', calling One-One "that little peanut".
351* It is a very ''very'' tense moment, but during TheReveal of Hazel [[spoiler:actually being a clone of Alrick]], she replies "I'm Hazel". Amelia just answers, without even looking at her, "Debatable".
352** When Hazel's true form is revealed, Grace rather poorly pretends she didn't know she could turn into a turtle. Later, she is confused on how Hazel, a little turtle girl, is a clone of Amelia's boyfriend.
353** Also Amelia's annoyance that [[spoiler: yet another attempt to bring Alrick back]] comes out with a turtle.
354-->'''Amelia:''' "It was just a handkerchief!"

362* "The New Apex" was almost entirely played for drama, but it did manage to fit in one joke: when Grace returns to The Mall Car, she finds it eerily quiet and empty, until she comes across a handmade book that is clearly Simon's novel. A dinky, off-key medieval melody plays over the shot of "The Esmoroth Trilogy: Rise of The True King" and Grace rolls her eyes.

368* When the bouncer is met with one of the dead corpses which he wordlessly crushes into a cube in front of Ryan, Min-Gi, and Kez and as a result, Kez and Min-Gi have this interaction.
369-->'''Kez:''' "Ugh, do your corpse bodies do that too?"
370-->'''Min-Gi:''' "[[BluntYes Yes, Kez.]]"
371-->'''Kez:''' "Ugh! Grody."

375* Min-Gi and Ryan managed to bypass the bouncer ''again'' by pretending to be the performing band. This is after he's made it very clear his beef with them is personal. The sad nod he gives at the end implies he knows he's tricked, but he's compelled by his job as a bouncer.

379* [[TrollingCreator Owen Dennis]] was fully aware that Infinity Train wasn't just the ten-episode miniseries starring Tulip, so after Book 1 ended with [[TheStinger One-One saying he'll see us next time]], a lot of the ExactWords he used to avoid giving this away become this.
380* Owen recounting during [[https://art19.com/shows/writers-panel/episodes/322c8ca0-291e-429c-bef6-d55845cbe3cf an episode]] of ''The Writers Panel with Ben Blacker'' how shocked the executives were when he explained YearInsideHourOutside did ''not'' apply to the train.
381--> '''Owen:''' (at 45:20) "They asked 'So the kid's-- she was just gone for four months or something?' And I was like '[[BluntYes Yeah]]'. And they were like '[[MadeMyselfSad ...Oh]].' And then the room just felt kinda ''sad''."
382* On the DVD Commentary for "The Lucky Cat Car", Madeline Queripel admits that her having MT rub her arm in embarrassment is [[TakeThat revenge]] towards ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' creator J.G. Quintel, who criticized her drawing Mordecai in a similar pose years prior. Everyone spends the next minute joking about this long held grudge.
383--> '''Owen:''' "There's a phrase I've heard before: 'Every TV show that's made is a reaction to the last TV show the people who worked on it made, where they weren't able to do certain things.' And so for Maddie, that meant... putting a hand on your arm."\
384'''Maddie:''' (laughs) "Yeah! It's a huge chip on my shoulder! Er-- to be clear, no ill will harbored."

389* The Tiny Wizard Car
390** The tiny wizards conducting what is clearly supposed to be a heart-rendering drama is a bit undercut considering all they can say is the word "spells".
391** It ends abruptly when a mouse runs by, and all the wizards run after it.
392
393* The Kaiju Car
394** One-One trying to figure out what's special about the eponymous car, completely missing the kaiju battle raging behind them.
395*** Despite a fleeing bystander specifically stopping by them to point that out.
396*** And finally, they decide the thing that makes the train special is... a cloud shaped like a pretzel.
397
398* The Snow Car
399** One-One returns to the car where he and Tulip met, but doesn't recognize it, even after rolling up onto the snowman Tulip found him on and specifically finding a pile of stuff marked "One-One's Stash".
400*** The thing that finally clues them in? A boring old rock.
