When Peaches has to spend the night at the vet, Polly realizes Peaches doesn't have her favorite toy. She, Lila, and Shani embark on a mission to get the toy to Peaches so she can get a good night’s sleep.

Tropes:

  • Baby Talk: Polly uses this when she sees Peaches and starts petting and hugging her.
  • Bad "Bad Acting": Lila when they’re trying to trick the frog into thinking a piece of sour candy is a fly in order to stop his hiccups.
  • Gilligan Cut: Lila claims that she may never sleep again after the adrenaline-filled evening they just had. Cut to her and the rest of the girls fast asleep as soon as they sat down to watch their show.
  • Here We Go Again!: The episode ends with Lila being jolted awake with hiccups, waking up the entire neighborhood.
  • Hiccup Hijinks: A frog at the vet has the hiccups and his constant ribbiting is keeping Peaches and the rest of the animals from getting any sleep, leaving the girls to try to figure out how to get him to stop.
  • Kindly Vet: In the end, Polly finds out that she had no reason to worry about Peaches because the vet really is good at his job and was able to calm all the animals down for the night.
  • Ludicrous Precision: When the girls don’t make it to the vet before it closes, Shani points out that they missed it by 3 minutes and 27 seconds.
  • My Significance Sense Is Tingling: The trio is about to return to normal size after they sneak into the vet, but Shani warns them of the security cameras and suggests they stay tiny to avoid being caught.
    Shani: Wait! My security senses are tingling!
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Lila spills a bunch of her sour candies and Shani trips on them, sending them flying and waking up all the animals they just put to sleep.
  • Pun-Based Title: The episode’s title is a play on the phrase, “bet on it.”
  • Slippery Skid: Shani slips on the sour candies that Lila drops as the group is about to leave and wakes up all the animals.
  • Slumber Party: The episode starts with the girls getting ready to have a no-sleep sleepover to binge watch their favorite show.
