Kerry's taking Adam as her date to a dance at Chester Arthur Middle Schoolnote , but Adam has recently gone feral from being at his animal school for so long.
- Actor Allusion: Ms, Chameleon, voiced by Nika Futterman, tells Adam, also voiced by Nika Futterman that he'd have a great future as a cartoon voice actor.
- Animal Motifs: Adam learns so much about animal behavior, that he can perfectly act like every member of the animal kingdom.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Miss Chameleon tells Adam that he would make a great cartoon voice actor.Slips: Uh, What's a cartoon?Windsor: You're sitting in one.Slips: Whoa!
- Character Development: Jake supports Adam, in helping him get ready for his date with Kerry. Back in Season 1, Jake was against Adam going to a dance with Kerry, out of jealousy. Looks like he's matured.
- Class Clown: Miss Chameleon asks Jake to make animal calls. Jake whips out his phone and says "Hello, animals?", getting a good laugh out of the students, and a sarcastic one from the teacher.
- Dude, Not Funny!: Phineas didn't appreciate Adam's dolphin impression.
- Exhausted Eye Bags: Adam is shown with these, in his feral form, due to all his sleep deprivation.
- Fun with Homophones: Kerry mentions the debutante ball, and Adam runs around like a dog, ready to fetch a ball.
- Also, in Mr. Beaver's class, the chalkboard read "Dam Building Mid-Terms".
- Gratuitous German: One of the kitchen utensils is called a "Grukenskewer". "Gurken" is German for "Cucumbers", meaning this utensil is literally a German skewer for cucumbers.Jake: That's the gurkenskewer! Never ever touch the gurkenskewer!
- Middle School Dance: There's a junior debutante ball going on CAMS, and Kerry's taking Adam there as her date—when she first sees Adam after he's turned into a "Wild Boy," Kerry claims that it's too late for her to ask someone else to be her date.
- The Insomniac: Jake claims that Adam pulled all-nighters for three weeks straight in order to study for mid-terms (which, tying into going to an animal school for so long, is what ultimately leads to him acting feral).
- Irony: Adam spends the episode being a Wild Child, with training just barely keeping him under control. Kerry expects this to be a disaster, only to find that the other boys at the dance are behaving even wilder than Adam. Adam's training makes him look dignified by comparison, impressing the other girls.
- Minor Major Character: Being feral all episode, Adam is almost completely devoid of dialogue here. He was heard shouting "Ball! Ball! Ball! Ball! Ball!", when Kerry mentioned the debutante ball, however.
- Nobody Can Die: According to Jake, Adam deprived himself of sleep for three solid weeks, to study for the mid-terms. In real life, this would have killed him.
- Nose Nuggets: Jake picks his nose in class.
- Sanity Slippage: Adam absolutely lost it, after three weeks of sleepless nights, doing nothing but studying and imitating animal behavior. This caused him to lose touch with his actual human self, and diminish his knowledge down to just the animal stuff he learned. This turned him into a crazy Wild Child, dead set on passing his animal school mid-terms.
- Stealth Insult: Lupe calls Adam a "dirty little monkey" in Spanish.
- Swapped Roles: When Adam goes animalistic, Jake has to act like the human.
- Vocal Dissonance: Adam does a series of spot-on animal impressions in Miss Chameleon's class.
- Wild Child: Adam becomes this.
