2Jake is held hostage by a balding witch, who demands that Finn bring her a lock of princess hair to use as a wig.
3----
4!!Tropes:
5* AssShove: The Tree Witch threatens to entrap Jake in her "bottomless bottom" if Finn doesn't give her what she wants.
6* BeautyEqualsGoodness: Jake is convinced that the Tree Witch is evil because of how ugly she is. He ends up being right.
7* BeyondRedemption: Double subverted and played for laughs with the Tree Witch. Finn's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to her establishes that princess hair can't make her prettier because her ugliness goes beyond physical looks. However, he starts to feel bad for her when she admits to having self-esteem issues and gives her his hair instead. ''Then'' she declares her intent to use said hair for evil, at which point Finn and Jake lose all sympathy for her, even laughing when she trips and hurts herself.
8* CardCarryingVillain: The Tree Witch. "Now, to use my hair for evil".
9* CompressedHair: The episode finally reveals that Finn has a mane of uncut blond hair bigger than he is hidden beneath his hat.
10* DemBones: Princess Beautiful turns out to be an undead skeleton.
11* GraveRobbing: Finn is reduced to digging up Princess Beautiful's grave in the hope of finding some surviving hair.
12* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: While sympathetic, the bald witch is just a jerk. After being given Finn's hair and seemingly trying to better herself, she declares that she will use her hair for evil.
13* TheLadysFavour: All the princesses believe that Finn wants their hair as a love token, and that he's in love with them.
14* LaserGuidedKarma: Right after declaring her intent to use her new hair for evil, the Tree Witch trips on said hair and injures herself. Finn and Jake laugh.
15* PlantPerson: The Tree Witch is one.
16* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Finn gets tired of the Tree Witch ordering him around, and tells her that her problem is that she's ugly inside ''and'' out.
17* WhamShot: The very, very, very, very, very, very, very, VERY first time Finn takes off his hat EVER!
