Finn and Jake dare each other to go the whole day without talking.

Tropes

  • Ambiguously Human: BMO's bikini friends. They're all blue in skintone, and can fly by fluttering their arms like wings. They bear an odd resemblance to the water nymphs.
  • Angry Fist-Shake: The spider living behind the wall shakes four of his limbs at Jake for messing with his web.
  • Bottle Episode: The episode takes place entirely within the Tree Fort.
  • Dance Party Ending: With the Party God from "Power Animal" suddenly joining the heroes.
  • Demonic Possession: Due to their dare, BMO thinks Finn and Jake are possessed.
  • Fanservice: There's a lot of bikini girls in this episode.
  • No-Dialogue Episode: Except for some lines from BMO and the Bikini Babes, and Jake's final capitulation.
  • Non Sequitur: Finn's signs were too generic while Jake's were a bit too situationally specific, leading to some conversations that don't make any sense:
    Jake: You didn't write enough signs, did you dummy?
    Finn: (making angry face) I love you, Jake.
    (later)
    BMO: Why are you guys not talking?
    Jake: The juice?
    Finn: Me too!
  • Reality Has No Soundtrack: There is no non-diegetic music in this episode until the final fight scene between Finn and Jake and the Bikini Babes.
  • Talking with Signs: Finn and Jake decide to talk like this throughout the episode.
    Jake: (holding up a sign) You didn't write enough signs, did you dummy?
  • Troubled Fetal Position: BMO when hiding from Finn and Jake
  • Wacky Wayside Tribe: We discover that a whole group of characters never previously seen are living inside the walls of the Tree Fort, including a spider, a family of mice, and a depressive writer who looks like a Tove Jansson character.
