Amphibia: Flood, Sweat & Tears

August 1, 2021 3:47 PM - Season 1, Episode 4

The basement, Anne's room, is flooded. Hop Pop offers to let Anne sleep on the couch, but Sprig has a better idea: they could be roommates until the basement drains. As a result they almost die again.

Sprig and Anne have become friends, use the term "Spranne" to describe their friendship, and use the phrase "Spranne against the world." This comes up in a couple of very important episodes later.
Wally appears again. Believe or not, a couple of episodes focus on him.
Sprig's wall-clinginess is demonstrated when he climbs up to protect his dolls--sorry--action figures.
During the montage, Sprig makes actual frog sounds in his sleep.
The length of the montage is 10 nights, plus the last night, so that's another week-and-a-half Anne's been in Amphibia.
Predator of the episode: river lampreys.
From the backpack: Hop Pop mentions a hairbrush and a T-shirt we haven't seen before. Also: a magazine titled Cat Vogue, a nightshirt with the word DIVA on it, and a number of other girl-clothes items, which are odd because Anne almost always wears the same thing? How much wear can that school shirt take?
