Go To

Fanboy freaks out when the kids ride the new Man-Arctica rollercoaster.


Tropes:

  • Continuity Nod: While insulting Kyle, Fanboy says he's getting chicken pox, which he had earlier.
  • Crowd Chant: When the boys arrive at the amusement park, the attendees are chanting over and over: "Ice! Scream! Extreme!"
  • Eye Pop: Fanboy as he's reading the Ice Scream Extreme advertisement at the Fanlair.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: When the rollercoaster is dropping through an ice cave, we get a very brief shot of Kyle clinging onto Chuggy.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Fanboy starts acting up and making fun of his friends, thinking they'd be too scared to ride it, then the tables turn when everyone gets on the ride.
  • Madness Mantra: Fanboy repeats "Okay" over and over as the coaster train is going up the lift hill.
  • Mood Whiplash: Fanboy's initial excitement at riding the Ice Scream Extreme suddenly turns into fear minutes after going up the lift hill.
  • Ocular Gushers: Fanboy as he's insulting Chuggy.
  • Out-of-Character Moment: Kyle is one of the kids attending the ride opening and enjoying it, two things the Kyle we know would most likely show disdain over.
  • Potty Dance: Oz does one after holding it in eighteen hours without a bathroom.
  • String-on-Finger Reminder: The episode starts with Fanboy lying in bed with a string from the ceiling tied to his finger, wondering why it's there in the first place. Chum Chum then reads a cue card with the note "Cut safe down from ceiling", to which he obliges; said string is revealed to be holding a safe when cut, which sends Fanboy flying into the ceiling where he sees the advertisement for the Ice Scream Extreme which opens that day.
  • The Voiceless: Despite Kyle appearing several times thoughout the episode, he never says a word. The only vocalization he makes is a startled yell when Fanboy sneaks up on him, and he is seen cheering and laughing with the crowd in unison a lot.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: Oz is nowhere to be seen after the ride opens.
