Recap / Summer Camp Island S 2 E 20 The Library

Go To

The campers spend a rainy day at the library.


Tropes:

  • All for Nothing: Betsy has been teaching Hedgehog magic in secret since "Pajama Pajimjams" and this episodes reveals Hedgehog has passed her test to get her own magic wand. After Hedgehog spends the entire day trying to get a dictionary that's currently being read by a monster to translate a word for a spell, she finally found the word and uses it to make her friends fly through the camp. But it's all for naught when Susie catches her using magic and confiscates her wand.
  • Callback: Hedgehog does in fact pass Betsy's test from "Spell Crusher" since she now has her own wand.
  • Creative Closing Credits: "Witches Lullaby" plays during the credits, indicating it's a "lore-building" episode.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: If you pause while Pepper talks about his favorite children's book illustrator, you can see that the illustrator's "About the Author" profile is rather depressing:
    Help me. I'm all alone. I have no love in my life. I'm a troll. All I do is draw. My wife left me ten years ago.
  • Just Here for the Free Snacks: Lucy accuses one of the yetis in the book club of not actually reading the book and being there just for the snacks.
  • Portal Book: The "Immersive Books" section of the library is full of them. Alexa goes inside one about the 1924 Winter Olympics to compete in the skiing events.
  • Punny Name: Dewey Decimal, a tiny man who lives in Margot's desk drawer and locates books with his radar-like nose.
  • Rule of Three: Subverted. The librarian puts Hedgehog on time out after four strikes "just like in baseball."
  • Wham Episode: Susie discovers Hedgehog has been doing magic and has her own magic wand and demands to know where she got it from. While Hedgehog doesn't sell Betsy out, Susie confiscates Hedgehog's wand and plans to punish her later.
