Recap / Littlest Pet Shop 2012 S 4 E 12 Guilt Tripping

Go To

Blythe is wracked with guilt when her temporary lapse in judgment gets the Biskits suspended from school while Pepper is on pins and needles awaiting Vinnie's punishment for breaking his lucky rock.


Tropes:

  • Big "NO!": Vinnie pulls this when Pepper breaks his lucky rock.
  • Blatant Lies: Flashbacks to the previous times the Biskits have caused trouble have them claiming they were forced to do it by "aliens," "that kid in the ugly shirt" and "aliens in ugly shirts."
  • Bowdlerized: In the UK airing, the shot of Whittany's cut up hands during The Guilty Tango song is replaced with another shot of the drummer on the barge.
  • Go Mad from the Revelation: Pepper ends the episode having a mental breakdown after Vinnie reveals that he has a stash full of "lucky" rocks.
  • Gross-Up Close-Up: Pepper's paw.
    • Also during The Guilty Tango, Whittany's cut-up hands.
  • Hated by All: The rest of the school seem to have this towards Whittany and Brittany. Moments after the twins' suspension, they start celebrating in the halls.
  • Karma Houdini: Vinnie is never punished for misleading Pepper into thinking she broke his lucky rock when he has a stash full of lucky rocks.
  • Melancholy Musical Number: The Guilty Tango, which is basically My God, What Have I Done?: The Song.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Blythe and Pepper feel this way through the entire episode due to the former accidentally getting the Biskits expelled, and the latter accidentally breaking Vinnie's lucky rock. They even sing a song together about it.
  • Out-of-Character Moment: Fisher, who has given Whittany and Brittany understandable punishments before, in this episode thinks making them go to a spa is a punishment.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: In the end, it is revealed Vinnie has a whole back full of lucky rocks.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: The otherwise gentle and kind-hearted Sunil intentionally makes Pepper feel bad about her upcoming punishment for breaking his best friend's lucky rock.
