Her Parents

"Her Parents" is the twelfth episode of season two of Adventure Time.

Synopsis
When Lady Rainicorn's parents come to visit, Jake fears they will be full of hatred due to past difficulties between their races. To appease them, Jake pretends to be a Rainicorn and tries to get Finn's assistance. This threatens their friendship in the process.

Plot
Finn, Jake, and Beemo are eating eggs for breakfast when Jake gets a phone call. Lady Rainicorn is worried about introducing Jake to her parents during lunch. Jake decides to send a message by prism-gram to ask Lady's Parents if they want to come to the Tree Fort early. Lady's Parents send a message back saying that they agree. As Jake prepares to meet them, Finn asks him why Lady is worried about introducing him. Jake tells Finn that it might have to do something with the Rainicorn-Dog Wars. He says that there were terrible wars between rainicorns and dogs for territory in the Crystal Dimension. Finn says that Lady's parents are probably full of dog hatred from the war times.

Since this is what Finn and Jake thought was true, Finn came up with a plan so they can make Jake look like a rainicorn. Finn paints Jake with condiments like ketchup and mustard and also paints the house's interior with Rainbow Jelly. Jake forms into a rainicorn and realizes that their plan might fail. As he panics, Lady's parents arrive. He opens the door and sees that they are wearing universal translators so they can communicate in English. Ethel Rainicorn screams, frightening Jake, but says that her daughter finally met a handsome rainicorn. Bob Rainicorn agrees and Jake decides to let them in.

Lady's parents notice Finn and thinks that he's an odd-looking goblin. Jake tells them that Finn is a human, making them believe that he's rich. They start playing rainicorn games such as Cameladapuamawamap*rasberry* with Jake, but Jake gets Finn's help to make him look like a rainicorn. Finn gets overworked and injured in all the games, making him really angry. Jake begs Finn for help and forgiveness. Finn forgives Jake, who soon met up with Lady's parents. They decide that it's time for lunch, but Jake tells them that he should provide the food.

Jake asks Finn to make lunch. Finn agrees and Jake tells Lady's parents that Finn is a little raw but has great taste (he means in cooking). Finn returns with the food, but Lady's parents try to eat him instead, and say that he has "Great taste" (as in flavor). Jake becomes furious, grows, and tells them that he is a dog and to leave Finn alone. Lady's parents become happy and start singing. Jake becomes confused, but sees Lady Rainicorn. She rushes in and explains that her parents are bananas for dogs because a dog saved her dad in the war. Lady's parents apologize for trying to eat Finn and eat Soy People instead during lunch. Jake tries the food and tells Finn that it's delicious. The episode ends with Finn biting a piece of Soy People and smiling.

Trivia
.
 * According to the Cartoon Network Australia site, this episode was previously titled "Meet the Parents".
 * According to Bob Rainicorn, humans were thought to be extinct.
 * The picture of the dog saving Bob shows that the dog is in handcuffs, despite having saved him. It was confirmed that the dog was captured.
 * In the picture of the dog that saved Bob's life, what appears to be UFOs can be easily seen in the background. This might mean that UFOs were allies with the rainicorns. Another UFO appearance is in Mystery Train, in a poster saying "Watch Out for UFO's!"

 * In the title card it shows Bob, and Ethel holding Lady Rainicorn as a baby.
 * In the promo art, it shows Lady Rainicorn's parents wrapped around Beemo. However, it does not play a big role in this episode.

 * In spite of Jake not even knowing Lady's parents before, there are puppets of them in the Decorating Song.
 * The prism-gram Jake wrote said: 무지개콘 선생님과 사모님께, 47 무지개 길. 점심에 한시간 일찍 와주세요. 나는 애완 거북이가 없어요. 제이크 드림." Which is translated to: "To Mr. Rainicorn and Mrs. Rainicorn, Rainroad 47. Please come here one hour early for lunch. I don't have a pet turtle. From Jake."
 * Jake can be seen quickly scribbling the drawing of The Rainicorn-Dog Wars, although this may just be Jake strugling to get the drawing. This has not yet been confirmed.
