Year produced: 2005
Production code: 304a
Original U.S. air date: 10/11/2008
The one with food coming to life.
"A Spoonful of Mayhem" contains examples of:
- Artistic License – Law Enforcement: The Lieutenant uses Jenny rescuing an endangered baby as the final straw to arrest Dr. Wakeman... except Jenny would be protected by the Good Samaritan's Law, which was designed to prevent people from refusing to help those in risk out of fear of suing or prosecution by offering them legal protection. And even the Lieutenant would've gotten court martialed a long time ago due to repeated incidents of criminal negligence and abuse of authority by forcibly arresting Dr. Wakeman. Partially lampshaded by Brad:Brad: That's ridiculous! You'll never get that charge to stick.
- Dude, Where's My Respect?: Subverted! Jenny is officially recognized by higher Skyway Patrol command as a national treasure to Tremorton for all of her heroic duties.
- Easily Detachable Robot Parts: Jenny tells Heinz to make sure he returns the shopping cart with all the Mechanicuisine stating it's a part of her guts.
- Gone Horribly Right: The Mechanicuisine line of food were supposed to be a self-efficient way of eating, having enough sentience to dispose themselves and give nutritional tips... they just didn't expect them to also have violent tendencies.
- Insignia Rip-Off Ritual: After Jenny saves the city and Dr. Wakeman is granted a full pardon, the jealous Skyway Patrol lieutenant is fired.
- Jerkass Has a Point: Despite the brash nature of the Lieutenant, Dr. Wakeman does point out that Jenny is still by all definitions a vigilante, meaning there technically is a legal ground for him to incarcerate Dr. Wakeman and shut down Jenny on. In Dr. Wakeman's words, Skyway Patrol is normally "too inept" to realize Jenny's vigilantism.
- Laser-Guided Karma: The Lieutenant spends the whole episode trying to unfairly arrest Jenny merely for taking the spotlight, arrests Dr. Wakeman after Jenny saves a child's life, and threatens to shut down Jenny. In the end, the General of Skyway Patrol strips the Lieutenant of his title and position in Skyway Patrol and pardons the Wakemans after all the grief his former lieutenant put them through.
- Revenge Before Reason: While his vendetta against Jenny does make the Skyway Patrol Lieutenant more focused on his job, it's countered by his insistence to get her criminally charged for the pettiest of reasons, and even stood in the way of her super hero duties even though Jenny has been treating him with nothing but respect. Even when the Mechanicuisine starts rebelling by destroying Tremorton, the Lieutenant instead twists the context of the situation and still tries to pressure the General into shutting Jenny down, not worrying about the innocent lives at stake. In the end, the General chews him out for this by ripping his contract and firing him on the spot for wasting his time.
- Turned Against Their Masters: The Mechanicuisine was quick to violently rebel when Heinz and his parent company tries to shut the whole project down given their earlier rampages.
- Ungrateful Bastard: The Lieutenant saved an old lady from being crushed while Jenny deals with the rogue Mechanicuisine. However, the former still attempts to arrest Jenny. Later on, when Jenny saves the life of an endangered baby, the jealous Lieutenant thanks her by arresting her mother/creator.
