As a Fridge page, all spoilers are unmarked!
Fridge Brilliance:
- Notice how in episode 3, Starfish is the only one who doesn't sing in the song? That's because he may be Genre Savvy that if he sings, he'll explode, or he wouldn't be able to save his beloved Charlie later. That is one dedicated starfish.
- The events of the Grand Finale imply that Starfish was the only sea creature actually alive, and all the others were corpses puppeted by the Pink and Blue chaos spirits. It's like that they caused all the explosions as well, and it had nothing to do with Charlie.
- In the third episode, Pink and Blue take Charlie to what appear to be the ruins of an underwater city. In the fourth, they travel to the moon and encounter a giant, spacefaring millipede. In Nyx's sidestory in the Grand Finale, they visit an underwater utopia and encounter a society of talking, giant insects in outer space. Both are ultimately decimated by the spinning cube demons. With the reveal that Pink and Blue are hosts to said demons, it would appear that, in the quest to torment Charlie, they are guiding him through the same route Nyx traveled before their death.
- The intro of the Grand Finale with Nyx and the weasels is far more like a non-Charlie Filmcow cartoon rather than a Charlie the Unicorn episode, which implies that the threat it introduces is not one of Pink and Blue's deranged games and is very real.
- Technically correct.
- While Charlie walks normally, Pink and Blue have a very distinct animation that usually makes them move like stiff toy horses being played with by a child. It's because they're dead and can only move because demons are treating their bodies like playthings.
Fridge Horror:
- The ending of episode 4 heavily implies that Pink and Blue have pulled this routine before on others, and just killed them when they got bored. The finale not only confirms this, but that they've been doing it for 10,000 years.
- As stated by another Troper, Pink and Blue lead Charlie to the moon in episode 4, and to an underwater ruin in episode 3. Considering that the cube demons have long since destroyed these places, which used to be home to the insect people and an underwater city, it's clear that they are bringing Charlie here not only to torment him, but, unbeknownst to him, brag and show off all of the civilizations they've destroyed.
- The Millipede in episode 4 is a giant narcissistic creature obsessed with its own magnificence, and lives on the moon, which is the previous civilization of the insect people who saw themselves as rulers of the world. The sea creatures in episode 3 are all overly happy and oblivious, and live in an abandoned ruin, which was the previous home of the sea utopia that sold out the rest of the world to the cube demons. The millipede and the underwater animals encountered in their respective episodes in this case are not just tormentors of Charlie controlled by Pink and Blue, but puppets conjured to mock the cities' previous occupants.
