1After noticing the book detecting Felldrake in Rome, the team heads there and up the world tree.

3----
4* BigCreepyCrawlies: Felldrake transforms some termites into these.
5* BrainFreeze: The heavy magic abilities given from a young planet gives the wielder massive amounts of power and a "bit of an ice cream headache", according to Sheldgoose.
6* CallToAgriculture: The Roman Gods have given up fighting long ago and became farmers.
7* DenialOfAnimality: When told the Caballeros have to distract Felldrake, who's standing far away atop a planet, Panchito complains that "We are not birds, we cannot fly!"
8* DescriptionCut: Felldrake tells Sheldgoose that the Three Caballeros are probably planning their next move as they speak. Cut to them having a popcorn fight.
9* EatDirtCheap: Planet Pie, being made out of a young planet fruit, has layers of rocks and dirt making up its components. Only the gods and Panchito actually like it.
10* FoodFight: The episode begins with the Caballeros throwing popcorn at each other for fun. Xandra joins in and shoots an arrow at one of the kernels... and breaks a chandelier in the process.
11* {{Foreshadowing}}: When Felldrake is defeated he yells he'll see the heroes in Hades. [[Recap/LegendOfTheThreeCaballerosS1E10MtFujiWhiz He's not wrong.]]
12* IHaveThisFriend: Xandra actually ''does'' have friends in this case, as she tries to get help from the nieces to encourage the elder gods to get the motivation for fighting again. Unfortunately for her, the nieces think she's speaking hypothetically. Despite treating it like it's her problem, their pep talk (courtesy of the Pep Talk Totem) still works.
13* IWasQuiteALooker: The gods, particularly Venus, were much more attractive in their youth than they are now.
14* RedIsViolent: The termites turn into vicious red beasts thanks to Felldrake's magic.
15* RetiredBadassRoundup: Xandra pulls the three Roman gods into this, to battle Felldrake's termites.
16* RunningGag: Tubers. They're brought up again in future episodes.
17* SadlyMythtaken: The Greco-Roman Gods dwell in the World Tree — which has more to do with Norse mythology's Yggdrasil than with any part of Greco-Roman mythology (the reason for this is due to Marvel intervening).
18* ShellShockedVeteran: Mars is portrayed this way, having flashbacks to the "Titan War".
19* TimeSkip: It's been several weeks since the previous episode, allowing Felldrake and Sheldgoose to return to Earth after being blasted into space. The Caballeros have grown closer in that time period as well, having a popcorn fight when we first see them.
20* TravelCool: With Leopold too tired to take them to Rome, Sheldgoose takes Felldrake aboard his private plane, a luxurious, gold plated jumbo jet. Even Felldrake is impressed by it.
