* TheDogWasTheMastermind: Subverted; when the gang meets the leader of Gardenton it initially seems to be Hop Pop's old friend Jeremy the beetle.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: InUniverse. Anne, [[ShipperOnDeck true to form]], suggests that the possible other member of Gary's species could be "[[AdamAndEvePlot a lady mushroom]]". Fungi [[NoBiologicalSex don't have biological sexes]] (at least, [[BizarreAlienSexes not the types like animals such as mammals and amphibians do]]), let alone genders, as Gary bluntly [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]].

** The mind control spores that Andrias is using to enslave the Amphibian wildlife actually ''don't'' come from Gary after his survival, but apparently another mushroom from his kind, and he’ll want to know about it, giving him another motivation to join the resistance's fight.

** While taking a tour of Newgardington, Loggle accidentally steps on a flower which inspires emotional distress among all of the villagers. Hop Pop uses this to incapacitate them after Apothecary Gary reveals himself and expresses his desire of taking revenge.
** The dragonfly spy drone that finds the wagon and attaches itself to it to find the resistance base ultimately proves beneficial to Anne's party when it instead summons an extermination team that firstly gives them the opportunity to flee Newgardington, and a reason to work alongside Gary and forge an alliance with him.

* NotBrainwashed: While the villagers do have Gary's spores on their heads, he's ''not'' controlling them, instead working ''with'' them. That being said, Sprig and Polly can't help but feel ''very'' disturbed that their side doesn't seem to care how unnerving everything is.

->'''Apothecary Gary''': You see, these folks ''wanted'' my spores because it made them better gardeners. It wasn't mind control--not this time, really--and with this power, we turned Gardenton into a paradise. I've never had willing subjects before, and let me tell you, it makes a big difference.\\
'''Horace''': With Gary's spores, we can feel the very needs of the plants we cultivate. We're one with nature. It's perfect harmony.\\
'''Cultists''': ''(in unison)'' Perfect harmony.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Anne and the others understandably want to leave the village at the first opportunity after their last encounter with Gary, only to be convinced to help them out fighting off Andrias' strike team by Hop Pop's [[ConscienceMakesYouGoBack guilt]] over accidentally leading them to their HiddenElfVillage.
