Ready to Swear
Milo is poised to do his first promotional radio interview, on Otto's hand built transmitter. This is valuable media exposure and he is somewhat nervous. He's luckily distracted by Tabitha's cursed problem! Seems her baby brother, Tucker, is learning to talk...and with a first rate potty mouth! Bleep this! Bleep that! Will Milo teach Tucker to express himself more appropriately before he goes on air or will Tucker hi-jack the whole interview, leaving the Captain in deep bleep!
Tropes in this episode:
- Babysitting Episode: Tabitha has to babysit her baby brother Tucker, despite having a big interview today, so whenever she goes, she has to take him.
- Big Stupid Doo Doo Head: Pretty much of all of Tucker's swears are just silly childish words such as "kludrumper" and "booger bum".
- Didn't Think This Through:
- To make Tucker to stop swearing continuously, Milo uses a mouth washer outer to wash his filthy mouth with lots of soup. Although it originally worked, Milo then finds out that the speech he needed for Otto's radio show got badly soaked, which calls it a complete "kludrumper". Unfortunately, Tucker has heard Milo saying the "K" word, causing him to copy that swear and continues swearing.
- After Tucker lands during Tabitha's interview, he tries using a peanut butter launcher to shoot it into Tucker's mouth to keep him from talking. However, he accidentally misses, hitting Tabitha instead and Tucker starts swearing again, causing her to get kicked out.
- Dude, Not Funny!: After Tucker starts swearing, Milo and Lizbeth starts laughing at his cute swears, but it offends Tabitha as she felt that his swears are not funny at all.Tucker: Booger bum![Milo and Lizbeth starts laughing]Milo and Lizbeth: That's so cute!Tabitha: Ugh! It is not cute!Tucker: Booger bum![Milo and Lizbeth starts laughing again]Tabitha: UGH!! He picked it up from our big brother, and it's embarrassing!Tucker: Buttfinger booty-brain tuzzledump![Milo and Lizbeth continues laughing, which makes Tabitha even more angrier]Tabitha: HE'S GONNA RUIN EVERYTHING!
- "Eureka!" Moment: Just when Otto's radio show starts for a big surprise, Milo uses his "Bird Brain" to think of a surprise as he doesn't have his speech anymore if he would've made a copy of it. Milo decides to have Tucker as a special guest for the radio show and starts doing a speech about leadership as a big surprise, which he copies exactly from Milo's "Bird Brain" in action as his "Bird Brain" knew that he was not in a potty mouth phase, but rather a "copy whatever he hears" phase which the last thing he heard was the Tomorrow's Leaders of Tomorrow guy lecturing Tabitha. This impresses him as if Tucker can turn that potty mouth into a gentlemen, he will make Tabitha a born leader, which he then accepts her back to the T.L.T.
- Faint in Shock: Happens to a bride during a wedding after hearing one of Tucker's bleeped-out swears.Pastor: I now pronounce you...Tucker: [beep]![The bride gasps, causing her to faint]
- Informed Obscenity: "Booger bum", "kludrumper" and "buttfinger booty-brain tuzzledump" are considered horribly offensive in-universe.
- Not in Front of the Parrot!: After Tucker says a long bleeped-out swear to a parrot, it causes the parrot to repeat that exact swear, which it then takes Tucker. While hanging on the parrot, he continues to learn a bunch of new swears from the parrot, causing some of the town to hear his filthy mouth.
- Oh, Crap!:
- After Milo finds out that his speech that he needs for his big surprise for Otto's radio show got completely soaked from his mouth washer outer.
- Happens to Tabitha after she finds out that the parrot with Tucker arrives at headquarters of Tomorrow's Leaders of Tomorrow, which is where she has to do her big interview just about now, even if she needs to get Tucker back before he starts swearing again. Unfortunately, he did just that, causing her to receive a lecture on leadership and got kicked out of the building forever.
- Profanity Police: Tabitha is absolutely against foul language and forbids Tucker from using different swears, but he doesn't listen and continues doing it anyways.
- Soap Punishment: One of Milo's failed solutions on stopping Tucker from swearing was using a mouth washer outer to wash his filthy mouth with lots of soup.
- Sound-Effect Bleep: There is one long swear word that Tucker says but it is completely bleeped out, so it's unknown what the word is, but apparently it's so bad that all the other characters are horrified when they hear it.Tucker: [beep]!Tabitha: NO! WHERE DO YOU LEARN THAT WORD?! IT'S THE WORST WORD OF ANY WORD, EVER!Parrot: Squak! Polly wanna—[beep]!
- Stop Copying Me: While Tabitha explains to Milo that she has to babysit Tucker despite having an interview today, Tucker starts copying exactly what Tabitha is doing.
- Swear Word Plot: Parodied, where Tabitha's baby brother Tucker keeps saying swear words and wants Milo and Lizbeth to get him to stop, although the "swears" aren't real swear words, being childish names like "booger bum" and gibberish words like "kludrumper", but are seen as appalling even by adults.
Elephant and Hassle
Milo’s mother buys him a new winter jacket, but it’s the middle of summer! When the bargain zipper gets stuck he’s trapped in it just as he hears a kid, in trouble! It’s Lizbeth this time! Her stuffed friend, Chester is tangled in the Dairy Monarch’s advertising balloon, and hanging above the cross-walk! Now he’ll have to contend with The Nugget and Dijon (who he knows are really after his flamingo secrets Lizbeth shared with Chester) the Dairy Monarch’s 'legit' mascots. Will he be able to shed his new puffy suit in time to save Chester from all these nefarious forces? If not his relationship with Lizbeth might not ever be the same! And what about that elephant?
Tropes in this episode:
- Didn't Think This Through:
- To get Chester off the flag pole before the balloon blows it away, Milo uses his Micro Mountaineer Rescue Squad to throw it to the balloon, popping it so Chester can come down. But due to him wearing a heavy winter jacket that is hard to come off as a result of a stuck zipper, it missed once he tries to throw it.
- To stop Dijon from climbing up the flag pole to retrieve Chester, Milo then uses his snotty alien sneeze schnoz, to shoot out snot on Dijon, causing him to fall. He then uses a swing to try to retrieve Chester but Dijon cuts off the swing with scissors, causing him to fall in a water fountain.
- Milo then uses a football to throw it on Dijon, so he can get hit by football players. After he gets hit, he then uses his silly string to try spraying it on Chester in order to retrieve it. But due to the pressure from his winter jacket causing him to lose focus on pulling the nozzle on Chester, Dijon then hits him, spraying the silly string on Milo.
- "Eureka!" Moment: To help fight Dijon, Milo tries using his "Bird Brain" but couldn't think of anything as a result of the pressure of the winter jacket. Lizbeth then suggest him to forget about the fight and save Chester, which he mishears her as he was thinking to stop fighting as if he can't beat 'em, he will join 'em by going over their side. So Dijon has an evil plan by pumping helium into Milo's jacket to float to his doom rather than grabbing Chester. However, the fan blows over Dijon's spoon, hitting the fan which causes it to malfunction. Once afloat, Milo was able to retrieve Chester from the flag pole and the helium on his jacket popped the zipper lose, which Milo is now able to take it off.
- Inflating Body Gag: Dijon's evil plan was to use a helium tank to pump helium into Milo's jacket to float to his doom rather than grabbing Chester. After the helium causes his jacket zipper to pop loose, once he starts unzipping, it causes his helium-filed jacket to deflate and lands on Dijon, splatting mustard into The Nugget.
- Minimalist Cast: Milo, Lizbeth, The Nugget and Dijon are the only characters in this episode. Milo's Mother and Rutger makes brief cameos, but that's it.
- Skyward Scream: Lizbeth does this after her stuffed elephant Chester was blown away by wind coming out of nowhere, which then a balloon carried Chester off and gets stuck in a flag pole.Lizbeth: CHESTERRRRRRRR!!!
