AIRED: 12/15/05

Jake and Gramps go for this Dragon Retreat for the weekend. They leave the electrics shop under the management of Fu, Trixie and Spud - who want to prove they are useful sidekicks after messing up at recent missions. They mess the whole shop up just after they leave. But then, mountain trolls terrorize Magus Bazaar. And since Fu cannot call Jake, he tries to teach Trixie and Spud the responsibilities of the American dragon, wearing an enchanted costume. Only things don't work out the way they want it...moreless

This episode rules! It was not the best one but it was still one of the best. This episode won my prize for humor. Jake and Grandpa go on a dragon retreat, and leave Trixy, Spud, and Fu in charge of the shop. Then Spud used up almost all of the potion inventory. So they call Veronica, and they learn trolls are attacking the bazaar. So Trixy and Spud dress in a dragon costume and fight the trolls. Later they get dragon powers (temporarily). Then they go fight the trolls at the bazaar. They eventually end up fighting in the shop, and a lot of the electronics inventory gets smashed. In the end Jake and Grandpa come back from the retreat.moreless

This episode is one of my favorites. It was really nice having an episode focused on Trixie and Spud. They really rocked the dragon powers. Trixie's "yo mamma" jokes were a little over the top, but humerous all the same. The end was cool when Spud accidentally opened the instand sunshine.

This is a good episode trixy and spud finally get to be in the lime light. Jake and his grandpa go away to a dragon retreat and leave trixy, spud,and fu dog in charge, everything may have been ok if the trolls had not come to nyc. Trixy, spud, and fu dog have to stop them before they destroy the shop, although they don’t succeed. a Really funny episode. My family likes this one. If you find any spelling errors or wrong dialog i am sorry. This is the first time doing reviews. Thank you for understanding. Really good episode watch it.moreless

For all those who wanted Spud and Trixie to get dragon powers

8.2

By atecom01, Dec 06, 2005

You get to see a few of the dragons from dargon summit, but only for a few seconds. Not my favourite, but still a great episode. While Jake and Lao Shi are off on a dragon retreat, Trixie, Spud and Fu dog are left to look after the shop. Word then hits them that Trolls are terrorising the magic plaza place.

Fu knows that trolls are scared of dragons so all he gets Spud and Trixie to do is dress up as a dragon and the trolls will get scared. This plan works until Trixie insults the trolls mother. This they don't like and get ready to attack the 'Dragon'

They are saved by daylight which turns the trolls into stone. So they have to work out a way to defeat the trolls. Fu dog makes a potion which gives Trixie and spud the powers of a dragon without the ability to transform, so they dress up again and you can guess the rest.

This episode is good as it gives Spud and Trixie the chance to be the hero in the absense of a dragon. There are some good and bad parts but all in all it was a fair episode.moreless

NOTES (4)
ADD NOTES
- The dragon costume Fu enchants is the one given to Trixie and Spud in Professor Rotwood's Thesis.
  EDIT SHARE
- This episode was played out of order, because Jake still cared about Rose. The heart that he made for her in the beginning of the episode proves it.
  EDIT SHARE
- Jake and Grandpa rarely appear in this episode.
  EDIT SHARE
- Trixie and Spud are the main characters in this episode.
  EDIT SHARE
ALLUSIONS (3)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Trixie calls Fu "Fu Doggy Dogg", in reference to the rapper Snoop Dogg, who once called himself Snoop Doggy Dogg.
  EDIT SHARE
- Trixie and Spud: Aw, MAN!
  
  Jake says this line whenever something goes wrong.
  EDIT SHARE
- Famous Quote: 'Here's Mama' When the female troll says this it is a parody of the famous line, "Heres Johnny" used by Johnny Carson in the tonight show. It has also been used in several movies such as The shining Where Jack Nicholson says it as he axes through a door. It was ad libbed there as well as in this episode.
