Princess Potluck

Synopsis
The Ice King does everything possible to ruin a princess potluck he believes he didn't get invited to, and uses a variety of tactics in attempt to do so.

Plot
The episode begins as Finn and Jake are walking towards the Princess' Potluck and Finn complains that his callus on his ankle, due to his missing sock, is going to ruin his fun and the party, but Jake intends that they will have tons of fun, and that he will get compliment with his make-up, then an arrow then whizzes  behind Jake's head from somewhere off-screen. The two arrive and Finn gets excited about a bounce house, which turns out to be Bounce House Princess. She invites him in, but he declines. After greeting Princess Princess Princess, Embryo Princess, and Skeleton Princess, who Finn doesn't seem to know, they approach Princess Bubblegum. She welcomes them and asked Finn of  what happened to his leg, he explained that he can't find his sock and got the shoe rash, she tells him to sit down and relax, and mentioned that she is hosting a raffle and the winner will receive a mysterious prize, kept in a cooler. Finn then gives her a soda,he confessed that it is warm and that he shook it all up. Princess Bubblegum then buries it in snow, which happens to be next to Ice King's Castle.

The scene shifts to Ice King, who is playing with mini teepees on his belly. He then senses that something has been put in his ice and grabs Gunter to go to his telescope and see what is going on, finding out that it is a potluck. He proclaims that his "off again on again GF" Princess Bubblegum, his "BF's" Finn and Jake, and the princesses that he wanted to marry are throwing a party without him. He gets mad and goes off to create a plan to ruin the potluck.

Ice King flies to a forest, where he captures a variety of rabbits and cats. He returns to the Ice Kingdom and begins to tie lemons onto the cats, then he checks on his rabbits, which was eating lasagna and tells Gunter to bake more lasagna (which he pronounces, ''lazagnah). ''Ice King then flies out the window and goes behind a bush near the potluck. He then opens one of the bags and sends out the cats. Finn notices them and tells to check it out. Jake proclaims he does not like cats, but does like fresh lemon in his ice tea. Princess Bubblegum states that they did not have to make a lemon run after all, to which Lumpy Space Princess replies, "Yes!"

Ice King, seeing the cats did not work, plans to use the rabbits he fed lasagne to, but a horrible discovery he saw inside the bag made him leave it there and said that the rabbits had to much "lasagnah". He then plans to dress Gunter up as a princess in order to send her undercover to ruin the party and throw fruit punches at everyone, and Ice King begins to fantasize about marrying her, to which Gunter pulls out a taser, but Ice King said that was just joking. He then throws and blew Gunter out the window to the potluck below. She observes and focuses on Jake, she grabs a cup of punch and attempts to throw it on Jake, but notices her and announces her arrival, and then another arrow narrowly misses him. Slime Princess invites Gunter to party with them, to which she accepts, she drank the punch and begins to dance to when the princesses cheer. Ice King was shocked, he fell on the floor crying dramatically of what he saw.

The scene went to Finn who asks Gunther if he can have one of her sock, but she electrocutes him to make him back off, she then continues to dance. Ice King wonders around and checked on what Gunther is doing, but she continues to dance, Ice King said that there may be a law for this, and so there is and had an idea and now calls the Banana Guards to "tattle". He says the party next door is disturbing the peace. The Banana Guards then say they don't like him, and hang up. Ice King calls again, this time in the guise of an elderly lady. The Banana Guards still think it is Ice King, so he tells them to hold on while he gets his "husband". His voice switches to a thick manly voice, stating they need to shut the party down immediately. His voice then continues to switch back between the old lady, her husband, a pizza delivery boy, and "George". The Banana Guards then cut him off by saying they'll take care of it. When they arrive, they begin to party, which angers Ice King.

His next idea is to create another party in order to make them jealous. He creates some snowmen and tells  Guntelina, his female penguin, to go serve food to them. She instead shoves the trays into their bottoms. Then his radio begins to play another song, to which Ice King really likes and begins to dance with Roger, but the princesses do not seem to notice him. Ice King wonders if there is someway he could magically destroy their party,  he then realizes he can, as he is magic, and begins to attack the potluck as he flew onto the sky and drops a giant ice lightning near Finn, then rains hail on them, everyone takes refuge in Bouncy House Princess, except for Finn in which Ice King shoots more giant ice lightning at him, he then ran and fell on the ground nearly missing the last shot, he then takes off one of his shoe, jumps on Bounce House Princess to Ice King and puts his shoe on his nose which made him fall. He asks him why he is doing this, Ice King states it was because he did not get invited to the potluck, but Princess Bubblegum states that she did, in fact, send him an invitation in his mail, he then says he always waits until his mail piles up and falls over, shreds it and made it into crafts, then asks if he can party with them, Finn responds  that he'd only stop acting "nanners".

The party resumes with Ice King, who is now happy, bouncing with Finn and Jake in Bounce Houce Princess while Finn makes another shoe for his feet. Princess Bubblegum announces that it's time for the raffle, and that the winner is Finn, the prize is a sea lard, Jake said that what he won dunks, but he was suddenly hit by an arrow on his head, everyone turns to see the enraged Squirrel whose mouth was foaming while screaming, "YOU SON OF A BLEEP-BLOB! JAAAAAAAKE!" Jake was confused in which he does not even know him, then only said, "Hey, yoouuu," and the episode ends.

Trivia

 * This episode marks the first time Finn calls Ice King by his initials as 'IK'.
 * The royal guest list for the Princess Potluck are Princess Bubblegum, Princess Princess Princess, Embryo Princess, Skeleton Princess, Hot Dog Princess, Muscle Princess, Bounce House Princess, Turtle Princess, Lumpy Space Princess, Orange Princess, and Wildberry Princess.
 * It is not known why Wildberry Princess is not on the list even though she appeared in the potluck.
 * The promo art shows Ice King coming out of a hat shop, where he may have gotten all the hats he used when impersonating people in the episode.
 * Ice King pronounces lasagna wrong.
 * The quote "Hey, you" was used twice in this episode, first by Finn (at the beginning) and second by Jake (at the ending).

Cultural references

 * While the Ice King tried and made the others jealous by having his own party, his dancing resembles the Stanky Leg and the famous Twerkin.
 * The Ice King translates the common phrases "sour puss" and "party pooper" into live forms hoping they would have the same effect on the Potluck that people who are described as such do for similar events.

Episode connections

 * Aspects of this episode hint that this episode occurs at the exact same time as "BMO Noire":
 * Finn is missing a sock and Jake has a lipstick spiral on his face and has long eyelashes, which matches up with the events of the former episode as they leave BMO alone in the house.
 * By the end of the episode, Jake has an arrow on his head, and Finn is carrying the sea lard, which is how the duo appear when they return to the house just as BMO finds Finn's other sock.
 * Finn's scream from "Burning Low" returns once again.
 * The Squirrel from "The Duke" appears once again, shooting Jake with an arrow repeatedly throughout the episode.
 * The Ice King has a similar hat to the one Joshua wears.
 * The way Ice King comes from the clouds to wreck the party is similar to the way Ice Queen enters for the first time in "Fionna and Cake".

Errors

 * Wildberry Princess was also invited to the potluck, but only appeared in the crowd when they were cheering for Gunter.
 * She then disappears in the next scene when the Ice King begins to attack the potluck.
 * When Gunther is about to throw fruit punch at Jake the ice chest disappears.
 * After Jake anounces that Gunther is at the party the ice chest reappears.
 * The same goes when Ice King attacks the party.
 * When PB went to put the soda Finn gave on ice it seems so near, but when she was about to go back to her stand, the place where she put the soda seems so far.
 * The Sea Lard seems to be smaller than it was in "BMO Noire."

Production notes

 * Although the episode's title is the same as one of Pendleton Ward's proposed episodes in the Adventure Time series presentation, it is not a recreation of the original proposed episode, according to Adam Muto.
 * In the real episode, the Ice King sends cats with lemons tied to them to ruin the potluck. This could be a reference to the proposed episode where he sends lemon-headed kitties.
