2Jake learns that Finn’s been having clandestine meetings with a powerful wizard. But what are they up to?
3----
4!!Tropes
5
6* AmbiguousSituation: With the way that Huntress Wizard and The Spirit of the Forest talk, Finn and Jake are unsure of whether they used to date or not.
7* BigDamnKiss: Huntress Wizard lays one on Finn after he comes clean about his feelings and she reciprocates similar feelings. It gives Jake a JawDrop but they ultimately agree not to pursue a relationship.
8* BookEnds: The episode opens with a tired Jake marathoning a RPG-like game on BMO that takes up too much processing power to take a break of any kind from, with him wondering where Finn is to help him finish it. At the end of the episode they both finally manage to beat the game and they both collapse asleep.
9* CallBack:
10** Huntress Wizard makes a return appearance.
11** It was [[Recap/AdventureTimeS7E22Crossover previously mentioned]] that Finn suddenly became a lot better at playing the flute, and here the explanation given is that his hand-thorn is responsible.
12** Huntress Wizard describes the life in wizardry as a [[Recap/AdventureTimeS6E38YouForgotYourFloaties mad and sad world]].
13** Jake turns into the purple bird form he had in [[Recap/AdventureTimeS6E7FoodChain Food Chain]] in Finn's hallucination.
14* ContinuityNod:
15** Jake talks with the Ancient Psychic Tandem War Elephant, who's still nursing a comatose Maja.
16** Jake chats it up with [[Recap/AdventureTimeS1E9MyTwoFavoritePeople Science Cat]] near the beginning of the episode on Finn's whereabouts. Sword Shark had died of old age in the time since we last saw them.
17** The Spirit of the Forest has the exact same body type (and voice actor) as the Dream Warrior from [[Recap/AdventureTimeS4E21WhoWouldWin "Who Would Win?"]] and like him gives Finn cryptic life advice through odd metaphors in a hallucinatory sequence.
18* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: Finn and Huntress Wizard hunt a Thunder Boar for his tusk. After getting it, he is annoyed to find that's all they wanted, as he would have given one if they'd asked and grows a new one instantly.
19* EyeOfNewt: Huntress Wizard thinks the flute spell would be more successful if Finn used a new flute made from the tusk of a Thunder Boar.
20* FlatWhat:
21** Jake gives one as a response to Huntress Wizard's statement that if she ever found what she was looking for, she would become "soft" and "cease to matter in the world."
22** Also, when Finn first mentions the flute spell to Jake, he responds with a deadpan "[[BuffySpeak What the]] [[GoshDangItToHeck blood]] are you talking about?"
23* FullBoarAction: Finn and Huntress Wizard hunt the Thunderboar, an enormous wild pig with [[ShockAndAwe electrical powers]] and a body shaped like a storm cloud.
24* IAmSong: That song Jake sang near the beginning is a train-of-thought piece about his usual day-to-day activities with some mild variation
25* LyricalDissonance: Jake's song is very upbeat but there is one line about a possible sighting of Death himself. There's also the mention in the song that Maja might not wake up from her coma, which Jake lampshades as "kinda messed up".
26* MagicMusic: It's in the title; Huntress Wizard is drawn to Finn's music at first because the notes of his song contain elements of a powerful invocation spell. She wants him to play for her to summon the Spirit of the Forest.
27* MushroomSamba: To make Finn immune to electricity, Huntress Wizard has Finn drink from a magic spring, which makes him hallucinate for a few seconds (longer from his perspective).
28* NakedFirstImpression: Huntress Wizard makes her presence known to Finn when he's playing his flute and bathing in a stream (they've technically seen each other before, but never talked). Huntress Wizard is [[NotDistractedByTheSexy completely unfazed]], while Finn seems just slightly embarrassed, then brags about being "especially agile [[FullFrontalAssault while I'm nude]]".
29* ThePowerOfLove: The eponymous spell only works when Finn and Huntress Wizard play as a duet, implicitly because they were both playing with their secret feelings for each other.
30* ShipperOnDeck: Jake tries to get Finn and Huntress Wizard together, despite their insistence that they aren't interested in each other. Whilst it is revealed at the climax that they have some feelings for one another, they ultimately accept that they aren't meant to be together and part ways amicably.
31* SummonMagic: The eponymous spell is an invocation to summon The Spirit of the Forest.
32* VisualPun: Huntress Wizard turns into a log when she sleeps (meaning she sleeps like a log).
