Air date: March 21, 2010
Shake has a pinball machine built based on his "incredible adventures". Once he loses his pinball, he goes on a quest for a new one.
"Eggball" contains examples of:
- Accidental Truth: Shake's claims of a flightless bird laying eggs that act as pinballs turns out to be true. But, in true Shake fashion, he insists the bird he got the eggs from was a different one. Given this is Shake, he probably just painted some eggs in silver.
- Awesome, but Impractical: Shake's custom made pinball machine sounds more impressive than it would be to play. Each of the 18 flippers has a button, the foot petal controls the angle of the board, an egg shaped pinball and a fountain in the middle. Even ignoring that he accidentally broke it, the machine sounds more elaborate than it needs to be, and likely a nightmare to fix if one things goes wrong.
- Blatant Lies: Shake's "incredible adventures" aren't so much incredible or adventures as they are him doing this mundane like stealing pennies from a fountain.
- Dumbass Has a Point: Subverted. Shake refused to pay for a round trip, as it was more expensive than a one way trip. Obviously, had they done that or rent the boat as Frylock wanted, they'd have been off the island by now.
- Never My Fault: Shake made a series of self-help books that encourage this behavior. It appears all the books are in their garage, with Shake blaming Frylock for shutting down the website. Given how Shake following his own advice only lands him in more trouble, it's more than likely his book was just unhelpful.
- Shout-Out:
- Shake mentions Family Guy when explaining to Frylock that he made his own pinball machine.
- Meatwad has a pink parachute with the Powerpuff Girls on it.
- Special Edition Title: Downplayed, but Shake can be heard playing with his pinball machine halfway through the theme song.
- No Sympathy: Frylock and Meatwad have no problem abandoning Shake back on the island and throwing his stuff out. Meatwad even asks Frylock if he's even a little worried about Shake, which it turns out neither of them are.
