Milo and Lizbeth's garage sale was interrupted by an "alien".


Tropes in this episode:

  • Big "NO!": After Max finds out that the Captain and the "alien" now has an "alien baby":
    Max: UH-OH! THE CAPTAIN AND THE ALIEN'S BABY!! THAT MEANS THEY BROUGHT THEIR FAMILIES TOO!!! NOOOOOO!!!
  • Didn't Think This Through: To calm down the "alien", Milo uses an alien doll since if he shows it to the "alien", it will know they're on their side. Milo and Lizbeth tries calling the "alien" to let him know that they have an "alien baby" but Max unfortunately heard about it outside causing him to become even more frightened and barricades his window. Although Milo corrects him that it was just a toy, he also shows him some other stuff from his Power Pack that are also toys such as space mucus, a boxing alien puppet and a remote control UFO, which Max mistakes the latter for a second wave coming. However, the UFO got out of control and crash lands on the "alien", which he mistakes him as an another alien surviving the crash landing.
  • Disaster Dominoes: Avi finds a cord in his garage, but he is concerned that if he pulls it, a chain of events will happen. Eventually, he decided to pull it which indeed caused a chain of events to happen. It activates a fan blowing away the bowling ball which knocks over the bowling pins, which one of them hits a mountain of logs causing it to collapse which then hits the canoe which knocks over a bucket of paint and lands on Avi's head. He tries running away but then hits the table causing him to slip and landed on a trash can which causes a fish bowl to fall and land on his head, getting his head stuck. This later causes Max to be frightened, due to thinking that Avi was being mistaken as an alien.
    Avi: Look at that. A cord just dangling there. Pretty tempting! But I shouldn't, should I? After all, who knows what chain of events that might set off?
  • "Eureka!" Moment: Milo uses his "Bird Brain" as all that he needs to do is to send the alien home safely. However, Milo misheard Lizbeth as although she was meant to say to send the alien home from its mothership, he is suggesting to send the alien to play with his T-ball set as when he hits the ball, he can go home safely. Eventually that plan worked as after the "alien" runs home in the field safely after playing T-ball, the ball hits the fish bowl on his head, causing it to break and the "alien" was revealed to be just Avi.
  • Garage Sale: The episode begins with a neighborhood-wide yard sale where Milo's mom suggests Milo to sell off his limited edition Quantum Vigilante T-ball set due to him being too old for it, even if he doesn't want to sell it.
    Milo's Mom: Milo! What should we charge for this?
    Milo: What?! That's my all personal limited edition Quantum Vigilante T-ball set! Don't sell that!
    Milo's Mom: Oh, you're too old for T-ball!
    Lizbeth: What is it with parents and garage sales? Why they would always sell up your favorite stuff?
    Milo: You tell me, Lizbeth.
  • Mistaken for Aliens: Max gets very scared after seeing Avi being mistaken as an alien, due to his head getting stuck by a fish tank and being covered with purple paint.
  • Reactive Continuous Scream: When Max runs away from the "alien", he accidentally bumps into him, causing him scream, which then causes the "alien" to scream back. It happens again after the "alien" arrives at Max's house.

Thor All Over

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bandicam_2024_01_21_00_45_35_041.jpg

Thor borrows the Captain Flamingo outfit to assist his brother Milo's mission that involves trying to cure Rutger of hiccups.


Tropes in this episode:

  • Batman Can Breathe in Space: Rutger doesn't have any problems breathing or talking in space after the malfunctioned anti-gravity kit sends him up in space. Even the Narrator lampshades this.
    Narrator: And now as Rutger rockets into outer space, you have to wonder, can he even breathe up there? Lucky Rutger!
  • Department of Redundancy Department: Milo's solution to cure Rutger from his hiccups is a big surprise. Milo thought that was easy as all he has to do is to tell Rutger about the surprise. This concerns Lizbeth as it could spoil the surprise.
    Lizbeth: Captain, if you're gonna surprise somebody, you can't tell them they're gonna be surprised because that ruins the surprise! So if there's no surprise to the surprise, how could the surprise be surprising?
  • Didn't Think This Through:
    • To cure Rutger's hiccups, Milo uses a tiki remedy for Rutger to drink. Unfortunately even after drinking it, he still has the hiccups.
    • Although Lizbeth suggests that standing on his head will cure his hiccups, Milo decided to pass on this idea due to him having "gymnasticphobia" so instead, Milo uses an anti-gravity kit to try to cure it by gently flipping Rutger over until his hiccups go away. Unfortunately, due to Thor messing around with the power control for the machine, it malfunctions causing Rutger to fly up into space. Eventually after Milo and Thor fight over the controls for the machine, he eventually lands underwater, which still doesn't cure his hiccups.
  • "Eureka!" Moment: To cure Rutger from his hiccups, Milo uses his "Bird Brain" to think of a proper solution but after Thor eats a banana and spits it in his pants, surprising him, he thinks that surprising Rutger will cure the hiccups. Although none of the stuff from his Power Pack actually cure his hiccups, Milo finds a pacifier for Thor to use. However, the pacifier Milo gave to him scares him, Lizbeth and Rutger over its creepy appearance, which actually does cure Rutger's hiccups.
  • Gross-Out Show: After Milo changes Thor's diaper after the commercial break, he accidentally throws Thor's dirty diaper into the anti-gravity kit sending it up in space and hits an alien spaceship just before an alien attacks Earth.
  • Hiccup Hijinks: The episode involves Milo trying to cure Rutger from a bad case of hiccups.
