Recap / Fanboy And Chum Chum S 1 E 12 Precious Pig

Go To

Fanboy and Chum Chum adopt the class pet, a pig named Precious. However, things go awry when Fanboy tries to teach Precious karate.

Tropes:

  • Artistic License – Martial Arts: When Fanboy is trying to teach Precious karate, he gives Precious a set of nunchaku, arms himself with a bokken, and Precious later uses a hira shuriken. Karate is performed without weapons, which is why the word means "empty hand" in Japanese.
  • Abuse Mistake: Chum Chum and the class think Fanboy is attacking Precious when he was really trying to teach him karate.
  • Big Damn Heroes: Precious becomes this when he uses the karate skills Fanboy taught him to save everyone from Sprinkles' wrath.
  • Blowing a Raspberry: Delivered by Kyle to Fanboy as he is entering the shunning cave.
  • Housepet Pig: Schoolpet pig, technically, but Precious is kept as a pet rather than as livestock.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: After learning Fanboy was right at teaching Precious karate after all and he's innocent, Mr. Mufflin gives detention to every student who did not believe him.
  • Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe: The teacher's manual Mr. Mufflin uses to determine what punishment Fanboy should get.
