* {{Allegory}}: James Baxter expresses himself in a way that brings happiness to all around. Finn and Jake try to copy him exactly and everyone hates the results. But when our heroes put their own spin on the art, they are able to spread happiness, too. Now... are we talking about jumping on a ball and making funny noises, or are we talking about animation as an art form?
