** The infamous scene of Gumball and Darwin dropping and the slipping on a pizza in front of a pizza-headed couple who treated the delivery as if they were expecting their first child. The look of horror in their faces after the drop is dark, but priceless.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: When Darwin realizes they need to replace the ''vegetarian'' pizza, he and Gumball happen to be standing in front of a ''green'' house with a dreamcatcher hung by the door. Sure enough, the delivery is for vegetarian hippie Mr. Small.


Added DiffLines:

* IAteWhat: Mr. Small apparently didn't realize that his "pizza" was a glob of mud, grass, and chewed bubblegum until he wolfed down the whole thing in one go. Even then, he's not too bothered about it, since it was organic.
