5!! Tropes
6
7* AchievementsInIgnorance: Cinnamon Bun being the only one to stay awake when blown with PB's knockout gas is this for RuleOfFunny.
8* BadBoss: Maja tortures her familiar for fun and can't even properly remember what it's called.
9* BarrierWarrior: Maja creates ton of barriers to protect herself. [[AchillesHeel Which can be broken through if one relaxes.]]

11* BishonenLine: The Crabbit becomes more humanoid to fight Marceline's OneWingedAngel.
12* CallBack: Remember the witch that Ash sold the teddy bear to? Her name is revealed to be Maja.
13* ChekhovsGun: Bubblegum's rock t-shirt, which she is shown to be wearing under her purple jacket during the quest to Maja's house. She gives it to Maja as trade for returning Hambo.
14* ContinuityNod:
15** Manfried from all the way back in episode 1 makes a reappearance.
16** Maja's attic includes a portrait of the real ghost from "The Creeps".
17* ADayInTheLimelight: This episode has Bubblegum and Marcelline as protagonists, with Finn and Jake getting knocked out by sleeping gas in the first scene.
18* EldritchLocation: Maja's house is under a lake, which leads to an upside down house in the sky.
19* EvenEvilHasStandards: Apparently even Maja thought Ash was a jerk.
20* IllKillYou: Marceline says this to the Crabbit, though it shuts the door her before she could do it.
21* KnockoutGas: Bubblegum installs this in a Gumball Guardian which puts everyone but Cinnamon Bun to sleep, explaining why Finn and Jake aren't in the episode much.
22* MixAndMatchCritters: Maja's crabbit, a mix of crow and rabbit.
23* OurWitchesAreDifferent: Maja is green and requires a EquivalentExchange to endow others with powers. She has a natural VoiceOfTheLegion.

25* SequelHook: Maja gloats about getting hold of PB's emotion-imbued rock T-shirt, boasts about "something big" this will allow her to do, and shows how evil she is and how bad that will probably be by [[KickTheDog subjecting her helpless familiar]] to ElectricTorture for fun.
26* SherlockScan: Bubblegum is shown to have this ability.
27* ShipTease: A lot between PB and Marcy.
28** An interesting note is that in this episode, it is PB who is showing her feelings (to the audience at least) for Marceline. Whereas in "What Was Missing" it was the other way around.

31** When trying to persuade the others that they can resist the sleeping gas at the beginning, PB quotes "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas.
32* TreacherousSpiritChase: Maja tries to lure Marceline into a death trap with an illusion of a living Hambo.
