Watch out for Rocky!

The tenth episode of the Battle for Dream Island series. A new gimmick with the Cake at Stake is used, in which the two lowest voted members leave the team, and the first placing team gets to choose one of them to be on their team, and the other is eliminated. Teardrop is eliminated, and the featured challenges are a crying contest, a ski race and a handstand contest. The Squishy Cherries and the Squashy Grapes win, and Another Name loses.

Tropes include:

  • Banana Peel: A stick figure slips on one in the "Box of Paper Slips" commercial.
  • Borrowed Catchphrase: When Announcer says that he can't tell which team is in first place and they need another tiebreaker, Pen says, "Aw, seriously?", which was originally Needle's catchphrase but later became associated with David.
  • Commercial Break Cliffhanger: Just as the Squashy Grapes are about to land on the Spikes of Doom, we cut to Yellow Face's commercial for the Box of Paper Slips.
  • Everybody Cries: The first challenge is for all the contestants to cry in order to fill up their teams' tanks.
  • Excited Episode Title!: "Crybaby!"
  • It's the Best Whatever, Ever!:
    Leafy: Well, guys, we may be a little smaller, but we're still the best team ever!
  • Kill It with Fire: Blocky melts Ice Cube in order to fill his team's tank for the crying contest.
  • Men Don't Cry: Snowball refuses to participate in the crying contest, as does Eraser, who thinks that "crying is for wimps".
