* OneHundredPercentAdorationRating: It takes a single year for the world to go to hating fairies to absolutely adoring them. Dolls and costumes were made of them for Pete’s sake.

* LethalChef: Subverted. Mrs. Vee jokes about her food being bad, but she’s actually great at it. In fact, it’s her speciality.
