In order to earn her final Girl Campers badge, Courtney must earn Gwen's friendship.

Tropes

  • Brick Joke: Owen's guess that Courtney's prize for getting all the badges will be a lifetime supply of cookies turns out to be right.
  • Bait-and-Switch: Upon realizing that Courtney was using her to gain a merit badge, Gwen snaps at her, calling her out on her awful manipulations...until complimenting her talents and signing off on her girl scout slip without ill will.
  • The Cuckoolander Was Right: Owen guesses that Courtney will achieve a lifetime supply of girl scout cookies for scoring every badge, which she scoffs as silly. He was right.
  • Mythology Gag:
    • Once again, Courtney slaps her own face as a means of being motivated.
    • Gwen has a pet iguana, just like her older self.
    • The entire episode is essentially an updated version of Gwen and Courtney's growing friendship from All-Stars. Just with Courtney trying to befriend Gwen instead of the other way around.
  • Not So Above It All:
    • Courtney starts to get a rush out of acting bad with Gwen.
    • Gwen actually giggles at some of Courtney's antics and even cherished her time with her new BFF.
  • Oh, Crap!: Courtney's reaction to her award of cookies dropping right onto her.
  • Troll: Basically all of Gwen and Courtney's antics are the girls messing with the other daycare kids and Chef.
  • Odd Friendship: This is a story about Courtney and Gwen becoming friends. Odd is an understatement.
  • When She Smiles: Gwen actually laughs when hanging out with Courtney. Even she's shocked by this.
