"Gotcha!" is the twelfth episode in season four of Adventure Time.
Synopsis
In order to do research for her tell-all memoir about men, Lumpy Space Princess goes undercover working for Finn and Jake.[1]
Plot
The story starts off when Finn, Jake, and BMO are seen playing bocce ball. Turtle Princess flies on a hovercraft to meet Lumpy Space Princess at her home in the woods. She finds Lumpy Space Princess fending off "boys" (in this case, ants and fleas) and thinks she's so "attractive" because of her lumps. In order to help Turtle Princess with her boy problems, Lumpy Space Princess vows to write a book to teach her to attract boys with her Turtle Lumps. Some of the bocce balls land near the princesses and, upon seeing Finn, Jake, and BMO, Lumpy Space Princess decides to write her book about Finn. She then improvises a dress out a plastic bag from Squeez-E-Mart and leaves for the Tree Fort. For note, Jake lost the bet and must call BMO "sensei" for a month.
Upon arriving at the Tree Fort, Lumpy Space Princess uses a fruit pie as makeshift lipstick before knocking on the door. Jake, disgusted, tries to get rid of Lumpy Space Princess but she insists she is there for Finn and Jake's Adventure's Secretary job opening and produces a handmade sign as "proof". The duo reluctantly accept her and she proceeds to commandeer a table as her desk. Lumpy Space Princess asks for food and Finn looks around for some. Unsatisfied with the options, she tries to "seduce" him in order to make him look for more. Upon "success" in the form of Finn happening upon some leftover spaghetti, she says "Gotcha!" Turtle Princess calls her to ask for an update.
The next day, Lumpy Space Princess finds Finn putting rocks in Jake (who is shaped like a box). Finn and Jake explain they are taking the rocks on an adventure. Lumpy Space Princess insists upon helping them carry some of the rocks. Halfway through the trip, she gets too tired to carry the rocks anymore and, after dropping them, answers another call from Turtle Princess. After hanging up, the trio reach the top of the mountain the are climbing. Finn begins to throw the rocks into the Loch of Phantoms and explain that Princess Bubblegum told them to use the rocks to find a safe path across. Lumpy Space Princess then tries to seduce Finn by making her dress strap fall off, but it has no effect as he is too focused on finding the path. After finding the path, demarcated by the stones that did not sink to the bottom, they cross the loch and go into a cave across the way. Inside the cave, they encounter a portal. Finn and Jake are focused on the portal, but Lumpy Space Princess still tries to seduce the guys by taking off her dress. When this fails, she runs into the portal and becomes trapped on the other side in a chamber full of mirrors. In the chamber, Lumpy Space Princess watches as the mirrors fill with images of Finn. The Mirror Finns take off their shirts and hat, revealing hair down to his waist. The Mirror Finns begin to come out of the mirrors but their bodies are solid black. Lumpy Space Princess panics because she thinks her hotness has turned Finn into a monster. Finn and Jake then bust through and defeat the Mirror Finns. After finishing them off, Lumpy Space Princess replies that they came because of her beautiful lumps but Finn insists that what really matters is what is on the inside, "such as your brains and stuff." They explain to Lumpy Space Princess that Princess Bubblegum sent them there to destroy the magic mirrors.
Later, as the trio are in the Tree Fort, Lumpy Space Princess notices Finn sitting alone outside. She asks Jake what he is doing out there, and he tells her that Finn likes to go outside and think sometimes after an adventure. Lumpy Space Princess then understands about the lumps on the inside and realizes Finn is the beautiful one with his "inside lumps." Inspired, she calls Turtle Princess to tell her that her book will be finished soon. A montage plays where Lumpy Space Princess writes her book. When finished, she presents the manuscript to Turtle Princess. Though not what she expected, Turtle Princess loves it and decides to publish it. The book is titled "I Wrote A Book." Lumpy Space Princess returns to the Tree Fort wearing brown paper bag and reveals to Finn and Jake that she has been there only to do research on her book. Yelling that Finn is "hot", Lumpy Space Princess flies out the window in a rush. Jake yells after her, "Lumpy Space Princess, you're wearing garbage for clothes!"

Trivia
- In her writing, Lumpy Space Princess talks about how Finn is a great person who helps her. She also writes that Finn is the hot one, and says his shadow monster was even hotter. Her next paragraph is about how she is observant, and she writes about how Melissa one time had her lumps all crooked when she came out of the bathroom, and she deserved it, because, "that's what you get if you PO Lumpy Space Princess."
- This is one of the only episodes when the character says the name of the episode a lot of times, another one being "Another Way."
- It appears that Lumpy Space Princess is still homeless.
- Lumpy Space Princess misspelled Finn's name in her book, spelling it "Fin".
- Jake didn't use his powers to just stretch them across the lake.
Cultural references
- The lake in the top of the mountain with skeletons and corpses submerged and a hidden path in the water could be a reference from the Dead Marshes from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings :The Two Towers.
- Though it's more likely a reference to the Barrow Downs.
Episode connections
- Lumpy Space Princess is seen wearing a bag from Squeez-E-Mart.
- This episode shows that Lumpy Space Princess and Turtle Princess got their parts back from Princess Monster Wife.
- Lumpy Space Princess has lips similar to the one's she had in "From Bad to Worse" except she rubbed a fruit pie on her lips instead of her potion.
Errors

- After Lumpy Space Princess throws a fruit pie at Billy The Vulture, the blue fruit pie in her right hand disappears.

- Since at the end of the show LSP said that finn was the hot one with the "lumps" on the inside,this might indocate that she might have a crush on finn or she just learned a lesson that finn was different that other "boys" she have met and that he didn't have interest in her lumps like the other "guys".
