Oven Trouble
Strawberry’s business is booming but her oven is out of commission! Not to worry, Lemon Meringue is going to build her the oven of her dreams.
Tropes:
- Awesome, but Impractical: Lemon's first oven is large, powerful, and can bake anything quickly, but that also means that it overheats quickly and it ends up exploding. Her second oven is much more toned down.
- Cardiovascular Love: When she tests the new oven that Lemon built, Strawberry Shortcake is initially happy with the result, even having hearts floating around. Cut to a Confession Cam message where Strawberry admits she was hesitant at first, but is glad that Lemon came through for her. This immediately goes away once the oven causes a pot to emit a column of fire.
Strawberry Shortcake: (in cutaway, annoyed) No, nevermind. There it is.
- Made of Explodium: This episode would mark the first in a series-long Running Gag of Lemon's inventions randomly exploding, with the first oven malfunctioning and exploding.
- Pink Is for Sissies: When Strawberry asks that her new oven be pink, Lemon complains at first, until Strawberry gestures to her truck. Lemon agrees, but she still isn't too happy about it.
- Time-Passes Montage: One happens as Lemon builds the oven, taking all night to do so.
- Tears of Joy: Upon revealing the first oven to Strawberry, Strawberry is shocked and slightly terrified, while Lemon is tearing up at how "glorious" it is.
- We Are Not Going Through That Again: When Strawberry complains about her malfunctioning stand mixer, Lemon offers to fix it, to which Strawberry immediately throws it out her truck and decides to stir everything by hand.
Legend of the Spoon
Aunt Praline presents Strawberry Shortcake with their family’s ‘Lucky Spoon’ and trains her to master the ‘ways of the spoon’.
Tropes:
- Training Montage: The episode centers around Strawberry training to master the "Lucky Spoon".
