Recap / Big Mouth S 06 E 8 Asexual Healing

Go To

Elijah tries to figure out why he doesn't have the same urges as his friends. A jealous Andrew hops a train to Vermont to surprise Bernie.


Tropes:

  • Breaking the Fourth Wall: Elijah is surprised when we, the audience, start following him.
    "Oh, are you.. following me?" [screen nods] "Wow. Does that mean I'm getting my own story?" [screen nods]
    • Gil and Joe follow suit when they're revealed to be Elijah's Hormone Monsters.
      Joe: Gil, can you believe it? We're on Big Mouth! What an institution.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: Andrew is very insecure over the fact that Bernie is hanging out with her friend Allison, as he's a very attractive boy. As such, he's going to Vermont in the hopes of preventing her from falling in love with Allison and subsequently dumping himself. It's lampshaded by Nick after Andrew tells him he's going to Vermont.
    Nick: Andrew, you are being crazy.
    Andrew: Crazy with love!
    Flanny: And jealousy!
    Maury: And rage! Rage! Fucking rage!
  • Epic Fail: Gil's attempt at a back flip just ends up with him faceplanting and badly hurting himself.
  • Noodle Incident: Jay claims that he once got fucked by a turkey.
  • Not So Above It All: This episode shows that Flanny can be just as crazy as Andrew and Maury.
    Flanny: (after Andrew decides to go to Vermont) Boys, let's go block a cock!
  • Take That, Audience!: Gil asks Elijah if he wants to jerk off onto the grill. When Elijah asks why, the Hormone Monster says:
    "Because it's Big Mouth! [looks at the screen] These people are sick!"
