Valentine's Day/A Job Well Dung

Episode Number: 39    Season Num: 3    First Aired: Friday February 9, 2007    Prod Code: n/a
Valentine's Day: Commander Hoo-Ha comes to Camp Kidney to introduce his daughter, which was the mongoose Patsy Smiles. Patsy then gives a Valentine to Lazlo, in which he rejects it because he doesn't want to get in trouble with her father. However, Hoo-Ha finds it and gets angry. Overreacting, he tries to find the campers who wrote it, believing it was for Patsy. He does various tests and harsh deeds to try to get someone to confess. In reality, Patsy knows that she wrote it.
A Job Well Dung: The Dungs must find a way to contribute to Camp Kidney, or they will be thrown out. They try to get jobs with Chef Mcmuesli and with Nurse Leslie. However, since they work was limited, they had to move somewhere outside camp. In the meantime, Lumpus tries to get a camp upgrade for his "work in camp". However, later, Hoo-Ha comes and stays in his and Slinkman's cabin. He then hires the dungs to try to get rid of him and get the camp upgrade he deserves.

Quotes

add »
Hoo-Ha:Now, I know what you're all asking yourselves why did Hoo-Ha bring his daughter here, hmm? The answer is simple: I have decided that she is at proper age to know what a boy is.
Patsy: Daddy, I know what a boy is--
Hoo-Ha: Dup-dup-dup-dup! (picks Lazlo up) This, pumpkin, is a boy.
Patsy: Hi, Lazlo!
Lazlo: Ahem. Hoo-Ha's your dad?
Patsy: Duh!
Hoo-Ha: No fraternizing with my pumpkin! Fraternizing leads to liking. And if a boy wants to like my Pumpkin(puts his hands next to both sides of Patsy's eyes), not just like, I mean like like, WHO COULD SAY WHAT I'D DO?! (Hoo-Ha is so mad that he blew his top, which flies in front of the Beans and catches fire and disappears.) Well I don't have to worry about that, do I? ISN'T THAT RIGHT?!(Slinkman, Edward, Raj, and Clam shake in fear) (edit)

Trivia

add »
Commander Hoo Ha appears in both these episodes. (edit)
In Valentine's day, Slinkman was with the scouts when Hoo-Ha freaked out when he found out someone was in love with Patsy. But when he was looking at the scouts to see if they were in love with Patsy, Slinkman is gone. But when Hoo-Ha gets to Samson, you can see Slinkman's tail. (edit)
Credits: Commander Hoo-Ha keeps getting so mad that he keeps on ripping his top off in front of the whole camp. (edit)
Even though Camp Kidney is a summer camp, the setting is Valentine's Day in February. (edit)
In the episode "A Job Well Dung", it mentions that 3 nannys take care of Chip & Skip back home. (edit)

Allusions

add »
In addition to Skip and Chip's power to call in scum from miles around to their location resembling DC Comic's Aquaman's telepathic marine life calling power with outward moving telepathic waves, they must first hold hands and say "Scum Twin Powers, Activate!", reminiscent of DC Comic's super heroes, The Wonder Twins, who joined rings and said "Wonder Twin Powers, Activate!", to use their powers. (edit)
A Job Well Dung: A spoof of the phrase "A job well done". (edit)
Everyone calling Skip and Chip Flip and Dip is a reference to Irreconcilable Dungferences when Chip and Skip changed their names to Dip and Kip. Chip still has the same name while Skip's name is different this time. (edit)
In the scene in which Chip & Skip summon all the dirty mold, it's a parody of Aquaman's power to call sea creatures. (edit)
Lumpus calls Nurse Leslie Dr. Jerkyll. This is a reference to Dr. Jeckyll, a character in the book Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. (edit)
