This show is created by Rooster Teeth, It's bound to have a lot of laughs.
Episode 1: The Dreaded Nomad
- When Skout encounters the Nomad, she looks at the wanted poster with the more terrifying looking Nomad on it, and then looks back at the Nomad she sees. She asks him to look intimidating and when he tries to comply, she concludes that he ISN'T the Nomad she's looking for.Skout: Do me a favor, and try to look a smidge more intimidatin' for a second?Nomad: -thinking face- -hops and does a rawr face that looks more cute than intimidating-Skout: ...Well. That answers that.
- Everyone else scoffing at Skout's books is funny enough but the fact that Nomad just grabs Skout's book and throws it to use it as a bridge is hilarious, as we do not know his opinions on books because he never says anything about it. He just takes it and plops it in a river.
- When ordered to burn down the forest despite Skout's protests, Santi says in a nonchalant voice "These moral quandaries are above my pay grade", to which Jethro responds in an equally nonchalant voice "I concur." Then they casually set fire to the forest they're standing in.
Episode 2: Bliss Hill
- The Don Paragon is confident that the Nomad will be easy to catch. In fact the desert has likely brought him down to his very knees! Cue the Nomad, happily strolling through the Desert, like it's a walk in the park, waving at bones and rocks, not a care in the world!
Episode 3: Trouble on Purpose
- The episode opens with the sheriff of Bliss Hill dealing with his deputy, who apparently locked himself in a cell and handcuffed himself just to see if he could get out.
- When the Nomad has been chased out of town, he's sitting alone in a cave. He picks up two rocks and is about to bring them to life, but then he just shakes them like a kid with dolls. He tosses them away with a look that says "It's not the same!"
- Meanwhile, as he waits for the Sherriff to return, the Ranch Hand is just finished telling all the jokes he knows to the folks of Bliss Hill.
- When the Ranch Hand angrily tell the Nomad he's had it up to here with his shenanigans, he realizes he's missing his prosthetic arm, and switches to his other arm to indicate what "up to here" is.
Episode 4: The Twindleweed Brothers Traveling Circus
- How quickly does the circus arrive? Well, the Nomad is trying to pet a little lizard hiding in a skull...and then there's these tents and stuff!
- While sitting with the audience at the circus, the Nomad almost joins in applauding with them. ...But then remembers clapping will expose his magic, and settles for waving a teeny flag.
- Thinking he's been found out, the Nomad decides to sneak out of the circus tent while disguising himself with...a beard made out of cotton candy.
- When shown the fake "Nomad", even the real Nomad has a look of "Are you freaking kidding me with this?"
Episode 5: The Kindness of Strangers
- Nomad tries to get the Music Box to get the Skeleton Key while the Undertaker is away. The Music Box points questionably about Clarence the inanimate Skull like "But he's watching us." Nomad gives a frustrated look in return.
- Undertaker opens the door to see a Bounty Hunter with a friend who has died in a fight. But he just says "friend's dead" like he's returning a book to the library.
- The Undertaker really likes making a Hurricane of Puns due to the morbidity of his occupation. When he tries this on the aforementioned bounty hunter, the man matter-of-factly expresses his dislike of such an attitude because of its unprofessionalism.
Episode 6: El Rey
- Skout explains that one of her books warns that a sandstorm like the one she and Toth are about to enter has lightning that could zap your brain. Sure enough: "Ow, my brain!"
- The Nomad tries to follow the mysterious woman throughout the castle. When he enters a room she might've gone into, he sees a very high, very long spiral staircase. The Nomad's expression practically screams "Oh you've got to be kidding me!"
- When Skout wakes up in the infirmary room, the guy in the next bed over clearly has a snake biting his foot. And he seems clearly unfazed by it.
Episode 7: Eagle Canyon
- As it turns out, the Dandy Lion Jethro is a masseur on the side.
- Don Paragon, as hammy as ever... having to convey news to an enormous and intimidating minotaur. Governor Toro manages to be hilarious in the short time he's on screen. You'd expect him to be a massive Blood Knight who only loves combat right? While he is, he also happens to be completely civil for his whole screen time.
- At one point in Don Paragon's conversation, it's mentioned that Toro's home is apparently known as the Kill-osseum .
- The reason he's not coming after the Nomad himself?
- And telling Paragon that his men on going to look around, Toro ends the conversation this;
Toro: And hey, in case you get any "Scrawny guy trying to climb the ladder" ideas, if it turns out you've been hiding Nomad's whereabouts or interfere with the search in any way, I won't send an emissary next time, I'll be coming personally. And it won't be for a tour. (Image vanishes, then reappears) It'll be to beat you to death, which will require little effort because I've got 700 pounds on you, in case I was being too subtle.
(Scared spitless, Don Paragon attempts an airy laugh that sounds more like a deranged cackle and flashes Toro the "Okay" sign)
Toro: God, you're weird. (Vanishes) - To ask about Skout, Nomad pulls his cape above his head as a stand-in for her enormous hair.
- Nomad's constant frustration about losing the egg.
Episode 8: End of the Line
- After seeing his face in wanted posters, the Nomad disguises himself... putting a purple bandanna atop the one already over his face (which Skout later notes as a terrible disguise). And proceeds to deface the posters, mainly with mustaches.
- The ticket salesman reading Skout's motivations like a book.
- An old lady (voiced by Jen Brown) sits next to Skout in the train notes she's sad. Once Skout starts talking, she gets annoyed and goes sit next to the Nomad, relieved that he doesn't have a sob story (not that he would tell it, anyway).
- Skout describes whatever El Rey's going to the do to the Nomad as "Probably bad," the Nomad gives her a look that basically screams "You think?"
- Even better, when Skout rationalizes that it'd be better if the Nomad turn himself sooner since he's going to be caught anyway, and that Toth would like her if she did it, Nomad is gesturing wildly before looking away, as if saying, "But- we- I don't- oh, never mind."
- The Near-Sighted Bandits are full of this, from their intro where one notes it's not necessary to specify it's a train robbery ("they're already on a train") to their business card ("We glare. We Squint").Man: (Reads business card) Wouldn't it be better to call yourselves the "Blind Bandits"?
Bandit: ...Oh, man! That's actually way better! - At one point, the Nomad and Skout try to fool some bandits into thinking the Nomad (who they've mistaken for one of their own because the aforementioned purple bandanna he's wearing matches theirs and, being near-sighted, they can't see him clearly) has taken Skout hostage. Unfortunately, the Nomad doesn't seem to understand what "hostage" means, because he holds Skout's hand instead of grabbing her in a threatening way, which alerts the bandits to the trick. Later, one of the bandits takes the Nomad hostage...Bandit: (Grabs the Nomad by the neck) Not so fast! You're my hostage now!(The Nomad grabs the bandit's hand to hold it)Bandit: (Pushes the hand away): That's not what "hostage" means!
Episode 9: Compass
- Nomad and Skout are fleeing from Toro's Champion, but the desert sun is getting to Skout. Nomad quickly finds her some shade- which turns out to be a sign advertising Don Paragon and the Oasis.Skout: I really do dislike these billboards.
- The ticket salesman attempts the "running from your problems" schtick with Toth. It fails.
- Two passengers praise the Nomad, and the third says "I wish I'd seen it to have something to talk!"
Episode 10: The Knight and the Witch
- When a grown Melinda asks the Nomad if this little animated rock is the only rock he brought to life to search for her, we hear a woman's scream, and the appearance of more animated rocks answers her question.
Episode 11: The Red Carpet
- Don Paragon trying to get the Nomad's opinion on an outfit.
- Don Paragon is interrupted by his guards while he’s monologuing, which pissed him off...only to immediately relax and congratulate his guards when they inform him that his begonias were being trampled.
- Despite earning a promotion for capturing the Nomad, Red Manuel is still disrespected. His fellow Dandy Lions actually thought he died and were disappointed it wasn’t so.Red Manuel: Guys, come on, Red Manuel has feelings!
- Later, he tries to boss a Dandy Lion around, only to be disrespected and forcing Red Manuel to whine to Don Paragon to have him order the Dandy Lion into obeying Red Manuel’s orders.
- There is something funny about the Nomad animating water bottles and having them beat up two grown men with their stick arms for him to escape.
- Prior to the beating, the two guards are having a chat about how disrespectful they find Don Paragon's crappy Spanish pronunciation.Guard: Okay, see, I didn't even wanna bring it up, 'cause it's not like, a big deal, but - he's not even from here!
- Prior to the beating, the two guards are having a chat about how disrespectful they find Don Paragon's crappy Spanish pronunciation.
- When Don Paragon thanks everyone for coming to his party, a townsfolk from Bliss Hill pipes up saying Don Paragon forced them to come. So Don Paragon promptly sends him to the dungeon. What nails it is, the townsfolk is the deputy, the very same one who got himself cuffed to the jail door in Episode 3.
- Just like in Episode 1, a sheet falls on top of Red Manuel, invoking his too-proud-to-admit-it claustrophobia.
- The Nomad dramatically bursting into the ballroom... on a pinata steed.
Episode 12
- For the first time, the Nomad's lack of voice hinders him, as there's a struggle to communicate "the people are thirsty".
- When a fight breaks out, Dandy Lions Jenthro, Santi, and Null (acting as the party's band), just shrug and play some mariachi music.
- Don Paragon is revealed to be balding.
- Although it's a scary moment unto itself, El Rey telling Don Paragon he is hungry prompts the Don to nervously say "Ah yes! We all get Hangry from time to time!"
- As the episode (and the season) ends, Skout teases The Nomad's charades by saying that they've "really got to work on [his] communication skills". She then proceeds to try to simulate The Nomad talking by responding to herself in funny voices just before the credits roll.Skout: Maybe I should just do all the talking for the both of us from now on. (in a voice that's comically high, even for her) That sounds right smart, Skout! You sure do have some great ideas!(The Nomad reacts in disbelief)Skout (in her normal voice) What, too high? (in a voice that's comically low) It's not that, Skout. I'm just in awe of your ability to capture my inner voice! Let's stop for... whatever scarecrows eat in the next town. (bursts out laughing)(The Nomad starts speeding up on his horse)Skout (back to normal voice): Hey! Get back here!(credits roll)
