Summerween
The wombats go trick-or-treating during summer.
"Summerween" note contains the following tropes:
- Appointment Television: Mr. E is annoyed when the wombats come to his house, since he was in the middle of watching The Bakey Bakey Show and they were about to do the big strudel reveal.
- Bait-and-Switch Comment: Made by Mr. E:Mr. E: I still don't like Halloween...I LOVE it!"
- Christmas in July: A variant. The wombat kids celebrate Halloween during the summer.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Zadie dresses up as a yellow sun, Malik dresses up a blueberry, and Zeke dresses up as a red ice pop. The treats they get all correspond with their costume colors as well.
- Cranky Neighbor: Mr. E acts like one to the wombats at first, being annoyed with them for interrupting his show for a holiday that he doesn’t like and celebrating it during the wrong time of the year. However, once he sees how much fun they’re having, he immediately regrets his grumpiness and decides to join them.
- Fictional Holiday: The wombats are sad that Halloween is so far away and decide to make a second Halloween to celebrate in the summer called “Summerweenie Halloweenie.”
- The Grinch: A rare non-Christmas example. Mr. E reveals that he hates Halloween, but he later goes trick-or-treating with the wombats. The truth is that he doesn't hate Halloween, he just doesn't know it. Later on, he declares that he loves Halloween.
- Halloween Episode: The episode focuses on the wombats doing Halloween activities, even though it's not the Halloween season.
- I Got a Rock: Zig-zagged. The kids do get some food, but they also get stickers and desk supplies while trick-or-treating. Justified in that no one in the Treeborhood really has Halloween candy because it’s the middle of summer. However, the wombats are still happy with what they received.
- Mummy: Mr. E has the most stereotypical Halloween costume by dressing up as a toilet paper mummy.
- Shout-Out: The concept of a Halloween in summer is a reference to the Gravity Falls episode "Summerween." In fact, the wombats even carve out jack-o-melons, exactly like in Gravity Falls.
- Show Within a Show: Mr. E is watching "The Bakey Bakey Show," in which it's Pie Week and they're about to do the big "strudel reveal."
- Too Old to Trick-or-Treat: Defied. The wombats take Mr. E, a man in his 30s, trick-or-treating for the first time, and he enjoys it.
- Tsundere: This episode is a great demonstration of how much a tsundere Mr. E. He rejects the wombats when they come to his house, telling him that he doesn't like Halloween. Immediately after he closes the door, he feels bad for being a grump, and sets out to trick-or-treat with them.
Make It Snow
The wombats build a giant snow globe.
"Make It Snow" contains the following tropes:
- Are You Pondering What I'm Pondering?: The kids need something flat on the bottom of their life-sized snow globe. Suddenly, they get wet when Louisa is drying off her inflatable pool. This makes Malik get an idea, and say "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
- Literally Laughable Question: The wombats ask if the Everything Emporium sells snow. This gets a good chuckle out of Mr. E.
- Non-Indicative Name: Lampshaded. Zadie is disappointed that the Everything Emporium doesn't sell snow, and says it should be called the Everything But Snow Emporium.
- Piggyback Cute: Malik is shown giving Zeke an adorable piggyback ride at the beginning of the episode.
