Recap / Kaeloo S 2 E 41 Lets Play Firefighters

Go To

Kaeloo trains Stumpy and Quack Quack to become firefighters after realizing that Smileyland doesn't have any.


"Let's Play Firefighters" contains the following tropes:

  • Baby Talk: Kaeloo does this to Mr. Cat when they are acting as a firefighter and stranded kitten respectively.
  • Blah, Blah, Blah: Stumpy gets bored of the happy birthday song halfway through and starts singing "blah blah blah" instead.
  • Comically Missing the Point: When Stumpy and Quack Quack are undergoing training to become firefighters, one of the exercises involves rescuing Mr. Cat from the second floor of a building with fake flames. Stumpy tries using Quack Quack as a battering ram to open the building's door, so Kaeloo tells them to use the ladder to get to the window where Mr. Cat is standing. They climb the ladder, and Stumpy tries using Quack Quack as a battering ram to break the window sill while Mr. Cat gives the audience an Aside Glance.
  • Didn't Think This Through: Quack Quack gets stuck inside a burning building, and Stumpy rushes into the building to save him. By the time he reaches Quack Quack, the flames have spread and both of them are stuck inside together. What makes this especially ridiculous was that they were undergoing firefighter training, and had a fire engine right outside with a hose and ladder which Stumpy could have used.
  • Gainax Ending: The episode ends with the main four becoming pole dancers and wearing stupid costumes.
  • Heroic Fire Rescue: Stumpy rushes in to rescue Quack Quack after Mr. Cat sets a building on fire with him trapped inside. Unfortunately, it's only after he gets inside and reaches Quack Quack that he realizes that there's no way to get out. He then remembers that he can still make a birthday wish, so he wishes them to safety.
  • Make a Wish: Stumpy and Quack Quack realize that since they don't know when Quack Quack's birthday is, they can call any day his birthday and blow out a candle to make a wish on that day. They decide to use it on the current day. While Quack Quack blows on the candles, Stumpy makes the wish for him and wishes for himself and their other friends to become pole dancers.
  • New Job Episode: Stumpy and Quack Quack become firefighters. The job only lasts for one episode.
  • Skewed Priorities: Bad Kaeloo has two choices. One is to save Stumpy and Quack Quack from a burning building. The other is to beat the living daylights out of Mr. Cat for being a pervert. She chooses the second one.
  • Use Your Head: When Stumpy and Quack Quack are training to be firefighters, their practice involves "saving" Mr. Cat from a building with fake flames. Stumpy tries to break down the door by using Quack Quack's head as a battering ram. It doesn't work, so Kaeloo tells them to use the ladder to get to the window Mr. Cat is at. Stumpy then tries to smash the windowsill while continuing to use Quack Quack's head as a battering ram instead of just grabbing Mr. Cat, and Mr. Cat does an Aside Glance to the audience.
