Notes

add »
If Tino has a fear of clowns ever since he was 5, then how come in the episode Party Planning (that dates back to season 1) he doesn't have a positive reaction to a "clownless" party. In fact, it's much more of a paradox when he said "first party that doesn't have clowns". Could there have been a gap between 5 and 13 were he wasn't afraid of clowns? (edit)
Pizza Place: Clown Pizza (edit)

Quotes

Carver: (To Tino) You have to deal with your fear of clowns.
Tish: Or as it said in theocratic circles, Coulrophobia.
Lor: I thought that was the fear of collates. (edit)
Tino's Mom: If you face your fears head on, you can learn to control them. Whether it's clowns or bugs or anything.
Lor: Oh yeah. I did the same thing with cauliflower and it worked out great.
Tish: But you still scream when you see it.
Lor: Yeah, but I don't run away. It's not much, but it gets you through the day, man. (edit)
Tino's Mom: He says he's not coming out until the city has been cleansed of its unholy clown infestation.

Tino (from inside his room): The hour of purification has come! (edit)
Tino: It's the clown-oclypse! (edit)
Carver: I think he's getting better, he's rolling on his own. (edit)

Trivia

add »
The first time the kids are at the beach, Tish's outfit is different. (edit)
When Tino's mom is talking about how Tino first got scared of clowns. They show a flash back of when Tino was five wearing a white t-shirt and blue jean suspenders. However when the show another shot it show's him wearing only the white t-shirt.

Also when Tish is talking in Tino's kitchen they show her with her hair half missing. You can see the sides of her hair but for some reason the middle part of her hair is missing. (edit)
