Directed by: Neil Graf

When the boat is in need of repair, Beef struggles when he can't fish for a whole week so he distracts himself by playing with some toys; Wolf and Honeybee meet the best-looking man in Lone Moose and they try to be his agent.


Tropes:

  • Abstract Scale: Wolf and Honeybee have a scale for rating handsomeness, which they claim is intuitive but is actually very complex. Star Elite is the highest ranking, followed by Elite Plus and Elite. "Cute" doesn't even make the scale.
  • Absurd Phobia: In the closing song, Wade says he's afraid of eggs.
  • An Aesop: It's okay to let others lead once in a while because when you do you won't miss out on things.
  • Bishie Sparkle: Seen when Wolf and Honeybee first see Wade.
  • Couch Gag: The boat in the opening is Two Fish Sticks to Paradise.
  • Forgot About His Powers: When a sea monster teddy bear attacks, Space Guy can't rescue Rolf because he's made out of electronics and he can't get wet. After the sea monster is beaten, Space Guy uses his laser to turn over their sunken boat and Rolf asks why didn't he use his laser to defeat the sea monster, Space Guy admits he forgot.
  • Gilligan Cut: Beef declares that he's not going to build a ship for the toys. Cut to him the next day having already built the toy ship.
  • Performance Anxiety: Wolf and Honeybee want Wade to be an actor, but he admits to having stage fright.
  • Plain Palate: Wade eats lukewarm rice with no salt. In his closing song he says he only drinks water.
  • Ridiculously Average Guy: Aside from being extraordinarily handsome, Wade is extra ordinary.
  • Shout-Out:
    • Judy mentions that Beef's "life, lover, lady is the sea," a reference to the song "Brandy" by Looking Glass.
    • While talking to Wade, Wolf asks for "all Fifty Shades of Wade."
    • Wade thinks Wolf and Honeybee are from the temp agency and wonders if they're there for changing his computer screensaver to Winnie the Pooh.

♫ You wanna know how the game is played?
Here's all shades of Wade
I love to have a water, no ice
To me, juice has just a little too much spice
My favorite day of the week is Thursday
I had a cupcake on my birthday
When I sleep I like it pretty dark
I do high fives with my friend Mark
Fun fact: I'm afraid of eggs
I also do high fives with my friend Greg
Wanna know how the game is played?
That was all shades of Wade. ♫
Wade
