** In ''100%'', [[spoiler:she gets rewarded Marchen Land's specialty Willow as thanks for defeating Leather. A teeny, tiny one, to be exact. Cotton is not amused.]]
** In ''Panorama'', [[spoiler:Calmin, after getting his butt handed to him by Cotton, attempts to give her a Willow as a peace offering. Unfortunately, said Willow happens to be one that he had burned earlier. Cue the VomitIndiscretionShot and Calmin getting launched into the sky.]]
** In ''Cotton 2'', [[spoiler:it turns out that the Water Willow that Cotton and Appli had spent the entire game searching for had already been eaten by Cotton earlier, who promptly comes down with a bad case of [[ToiletHumor diarrhea]] for her troubles, and indirectly [[NiceJobBreakingItHero leads to the Pumpkin Kingdom falling into ruin]].]]
