Go To

Jake produces a genetic clone of himself, to get out of work.


  • Clone Degeneration: This is what causes the clones to rapidly age.
    Clone Adam: Dang non-stable clone genetics!
  • Expendable Clone: Adam and Jake's clones are meant to do their work and go to detention for them.
  • Hidden Depths: Jake has a fully-functioning human cloning machine. Where did he get it? He knows a guy.
  • Karma Houdini: Although Adam and Jake's clones have been turned into old men, they never truly face any consequences for the trouble they caused throughout the episode, especially for Adam and Jake.
  • Lampshade Hanging: Adam guessed that the reason Jake had a cloning machine was because "He knew a guy."
  • Rapid Aging: When Jake made the clones, he quickly aged them up to 12 in a few minutes. Because of this, the clones would later move on to turn into teenagers, adults, and old men over the course of half an hour.
  • Self-Duplication: Jake cloned himself and later, Adam.
  • Spot the Imposter: Despite the clones being rickety old seniors at the time, Principal Pixiefrog and Nurse Gazelle still had trouble telling the difference between them and the originals.
