Quotes

add »
Spud: Since you found the love for our friendship sweaters, I decided to give you a friendship beanie too.
Trixie: (Sarcastically) Oh. Lucky me. (edit)
Spud: Done in by evil footwear. Somehow I always knew it'd end this way. (edit)
Fu: I can't believe Jake didn't have my back when I needed him. Huh, it's kinda like how I didn't have his back when he needed me. You know I bet if I look hard enough there's a lesson in here somewhere... (edit)
Bananas B: Yo, you's be wantin' extra credit in algebra, algebro.
Fu: (laughing in a sarcastic way) Algebro.
Jake: (actually laughing) Algebro! Funny. (edit)

The trolls serving Chang attacked Jake and co. in broad daylight. But in "Adventures in Trollsitting" and in "Keeping Shop", it was made clear that trolls can't be out in the open when the sun is out. It's their poison. (edit)

Allusions

add »
Bananas B's clothes and dialog are references to Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G. (edit)
Title: A take on the movie, "Nobody's Fool" with Paul Newman. (edit)
The second season version of Chang looks sort of like Yzma from The Emperor's New School. (edit)
