Panfake is the second half of the twelfth episode in Season 1 of The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, and the twenty-fourth episode overall. In this episode, Peppermint Larry loses the Candy Barrel and Flapjack tries to help him with a new occupation.
Plot[]
Peppermint Larry enlists the help of Stormalong Harbor residents to clean the Candy Barrel before an inspection. The Dock Hag closes the Candy Barrel because of 'Rats' after seeing Larry demonstrate rat puppets for Flapjack. The rats are not that popular so Peppermint Larry makes puppets called Pancake, Captain K'neecaps, and Big Fat Talking Boat, based on Flapjack, Knuckles, and Bubbie respectivley, and bases their adventures on the trio's real ones. Flapjack spends the day with the Dock Hag to trick Larry into making a boring puppet show. The Dock Hag, angry at Larry's portrayal of her, closes the Traveling Puppetastic Exhibition. She allows Larry to re-open the Candy Barrel provided he makes a Chocolate Man for the Dock Hag, along the same vein as Candy Wife.
Trivia[]
- K'nuckles walks a little bit, then turns back to see if Flapjack is following him after saying he doesn't like adventures.
- It's learned in this episode that besides from being a pun master, owning the Candy Barrel, and trying to find Candied Island, Peppermint Larry likes to perform with puppets.
- This episode is a parody of the word "pancake."
- Ironically, "flapjack" is another word for "pancake," hence Peppermint Larry naming the puppet "Pancake".
- This episode could also be a parody of the fact that, around the same time Flapjack was on air, a pilot for a new show with a similar concept called "Poopdeck" was finished at Disney, until it was scrapped over its similarities with the newly released show at CN.
Notes[]
- This is the third time Peppermint Larry played a main role in an episode. The other two were "That's A Wrap!" and "Pun Times with Punsie McKale".
