Recap / Fanboy And Chum Chum S 1 E 26 Little Glop Of Horrors

Go To

Fanboy, Chum Chum and their classmates stage an uprising when the new lunch lady serves nothing but disgusting red glop, and refuses to let them leave unless they eat.

Tropes:

  • Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: The end result of the children eating the glop turns them into giants.
    Mrs. Cram: You're growing! Just like I said! Ah, no one listens anymore.
  • Bad "Bad Acting": Kyle at the start of the staged emergency.
    Kyle: Oh! Someone do help! There's an adorable kitty cat stuck in a tree!
  • Bottle Episode: The entire episode is set in the school cafeteria.
  • Death Glare: Mr. Mufflin receives one from everyone when he panics someone has to stand up to Mrs. Cram.
  • Exact Words: Mrs. Cram wasn't kidding when she said her glop makes its eaters "big" and "strong" — it literally turns the kids into big and strong giants upon consumption.
  • "Eureka!" Moment: The instant Kyle says "We're like a kitten stuck in a tree," this gives Fanboy the idea to stage a forged cat rescue to trick Mrs. Cram into letting the kids out.
  • Eye Scream: The glop causes Chum Chum's eyes to turn red and burn at one point.
  • Hope Spot: When it seems Mrs. Cram is finally going to open the door and give the kids freedom, she suddenly slams it shut upon seeing her glop is on fire in the kitchen.
  • Hulk Speak: When pretending to be "pizza monkeys" in the beginning, FB and CC shout out minimal phrases such as "Monkey want pizza!" and "Pizza monkey hungry!". Then when the glop is served instead of Pizza, Chum Chum cries out, "Pizza monkey no like!"
  • Gasshole: When Kyle tries to take a bite of the glop himself, it unleashes a wad of fart cloud once he takes a forkful, grossing him out.
    Kyle: Oh, my... I'm going to be unwell...!! (promptly passes out)
  • Noodle Incident: It was mentioned the last lunch lady threw her stove out the window multiple times.
  • Self-Deprecation: A jab at the frequent use of Toilet Humour.
    Fanboy: It's pizza day! Come play pizza monkeys with us!
    Kyle: You two are... pizza monkeys? What do you do, throw your... poopperoni?
    (Fanboy and Chum Chum burst out with laughter)
    Kyle: (sighing) I'm witty day after day — and this is what they laugh at.
  • Take Our Word for It: When Kyle stuffs all the glop into Necronomicon and he is about to throw it up, the camera cuts right to the kids at the table. Moments later, Kyle enters, glop-coated.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: Some of the kids, Kyle for instance, are missing when they escape the cafeteria in the end.
