They could just run away, but they'll miss the tornado!
"It's an ill wind that blows no good."

Airdate: October 3, 2012

While catching up on his reading, Splendid discovers on the news that a tornado is heading for a barn with some helpless Tree Friends! However, he wants to finish his book just as it's getting good, so Splendid will half-ass his rescue to hurry back.

"Breaking Wind" contains the following:

  • Apocalypse How: Essentially everybody in the planet save for Splendid is most likely dead.
  • Barely Missed Cushion: Subverted at first as Giggles falls toward a soft mattress, but then she bounces off it and lands on some tools that skewer her.
  • Fartillery: Splendid lets one rip after eating the tornado and it's so powerful that it strips Flaky to the bone and makes the rest of the world choke from the fumes.
  • Stripped to the Bone: As mentioned above in Fartillery, Flaky ends up dying this way due to Splendid's powerful fart.
  • Shout-Out: Splendid reads Twilight, judging from the book having an apple and wings on the cover.
  • They Killed Kenny Again: Giggles, Cuddles, Lumpy, The Mole, Flaky, Toothy, Handy, Disco Bear, and Petunia die. Despite not appearing in the episode, Cro-Marmot, Flippy, Mr. Pickels, Lammy, Russell, Mime, Pop, Cub, Nutty, Lifty, Shifty, and Sniffles could have died from it too, considering it set the ENTIRE WORLD on fire.
  • Take That!: When Splendid finally finishes Twilight, he tosses the final page aside, finding it terrible.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone / Sole Survivor: Splendid survives.
