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 dog hatred towards him. This is because of the Rainicorn-Dog Wars that happened long ago in the crystal dimension. To appease them, Jake pretends to be a rainicorn and tries to get Finn's assistance, but in the end, appears to be a total math nerd.

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 prisogram 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 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 and said 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.
