Go To

Blossom misses out in joining a school club she wants to join. Bubbles and Buttercup recommend other clubs, prompting Blossom to imagine what it would be like joining them.

Tropes:

  • Big "NO!": Blossom after each of her scenarios of being in other clubs ends with a giant robot attack.
  • Expressive Accessory: Blossom's bow droops due to sadness after not being part of a club.
  • Imagine Spot: Most of the episode is shown through these as Blossom imagines what it would be like to be in certain clubs.
  • Insane Troll Logic: Blossom keeps coming to these conclusions in her fantasies much to the confusion of Bubbles and Buttercup.
    • In the first one set in a Renaissance setting, she paints a simple chair and, while the audience seems to like it at first, two of them find it offensive and incite a mob on the chair. When Blossom tries to calm them down by saying "it's not the end of the world", this ends up summoning a giant robot for some reason.
    • The second, one set in space, has her offending the aliens into declaring a act of war with the Earth just because she tried to use a coaster to hold her drink and trying to apologize for it which only offends them further. Prompting the leader to call in a robot for the attack
    • The third, set in an 80's style dance off, has Princess trying to take over the Gym by buying it out. Blossom defeats her in the ensuing dance off...and then a robot suddenly busts in to join the dance.
  • Running Gag: A giant robot somehow keeps being the end result of each of Blossom's Imagine Spots, no matter how illogical in how it keeps popping up. Also Buttercup getting stepped on by it.
  • Shout-Out:
    • To Star Wars in the second fantasy with Buttercup being R2-D2 and Jarad in a Darth Vader getup.
    • The third fantasy to a lot of 80's culture and music videos.
  • Torches and Pitchforks: In Blossom's first Imagine Spot, she pictures Buttercup selling these (along with bubblegum spittoons). At first having no customers then getting lucky when Blossom's audience form into a mob to destroy the chair she painted.
