User blog:ATUniverse/Watching Random Episodes Pt.3: S8E19 Cloudy

Which other episode suits better for these days. It's definitely not my favourite though. Let's try that.

Title Card

 * Title card is really good for showing cloudy minds of Finn and Jake, mostly Finn.

General Thoughts

 * The episode was more like a therapy about positive thinking and making most advantage of your current situation.


 * Looking from Finn's side, he is really eager and impatient to do something about the situation as he thinks this is all his fault. He is trying to be positive but he is burning inside. He feels guilty and unsure of himself. But he doesn't just give up and stands behind his actions and responsibilities. He is tough and actually he would be great at taking responsibility but just needs positive thinking and some wisdom. He had his shift covered by Fern but it turned out he wasn't ready for this. As opposed to Finn, he doesn't care that much about his responsibilities, his land and his loved ones. And everything burnt to ground. I think if Finn were in Ooo, he could really have prevented this, at least he wouldn't let IK kidnap princesses again. He takes himself responsible from all that. He still thinks his inner intentions affect the universe like in the episode Comet, but I don't think that's the case. He shouldn't be that hard to himself. He is just a kid after all. He just needed to think rationally in this episode. Thanks to Jake, he nailed it.


 * Looking from Jake's side, he was all comforting and wise just like you would expect from an older family member. This is one of the few episodes where Jake is actually wiser than Finn. Hair cutting therapy was a perfect conversation opener, wise of Jake. That is true for real life too. You can always have really nice chat with your barber. As for girls, I don't know... They are like in a different universe in hairdressers, I guess. Anyway, Jake was always trying to ease the pressure on Finn. It's remarkable that they can still sing funny songs and have fun. It resembles the tone of the Island song like come along with me no matter what happens... Door with restroom comes right after Jake made Finn happy. It's like a reward for Jake. He was acting all grown up telling Finn this will happen no matter what. They were just lucky that they were not in Ooo, and now they have a chance to fix this. Good and helpful positive thinking. Your mood depends on how you think about the stuff.


 * There was a good magic metaphor with technology. She doesn't have her full power to make things bigger. She was just able to reach the thumbnails.


 * Dogs and their weak bladder. They just have to urinate everywhere.


 * Betty is really successful in keeping it together with magic man's powers.


 * Finn actually shows sweet street skills dealing with that lard. Real clever! And I should say he is pretty resourceful.

Details, details...

 * I have nothing, there were all clouds.
