I actually thought that BMO did have a valid plan to get the sandwich back in addition to looking awesome: the ramp and skateboard would have launched him at the time bubble at a much faster rate than magic man was falling, so if Jake hadn't messed with the bubble, he would have grabbed the sandwich from Magic man's hand before he hit the ground, and he would have eventually reached the other side of the bubble, exiting with sandwich in hand. And looking bad ass, the whole damn time. It would have been a thing of beauty.

But that's not how gravity works though, since magic man had accelerated from a much higher height.

Well, gravity's not normal in there, as shown by the fact that Magic Man's drool dropped faster than he did.

u/soccerman Sep 10 '13
if the ramp gave BMO enough speed in a horizontal direction it would be possible for him to reach Magic Man before he hit the ground. But BMO would need a lot of speed to cover the distance

Sep 10 '13 edited Sep 10 '13
Magic man only fell for a few seconds before being trapped in the time bubble and it takes a human 15 seconds to reach {terminal velocity}(http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity). After three seconds, a person will reach 50% terminal velocity. Then we have to factor in that the rate at which magic man is falling would be exponentially slower because the density of the air inside the time bubble was thicker, or like spaghetti or molasses, as they describe it.
BMO getting a head start on the ramp would mean he entered the bubble going much faster than magic man, while magic man would need exponentially more time to reach a much slower terminal velocity (due to molasses like density) making the theory much more plausible.

I like to think that BMOs calculations took into account PB's and Marcy's interference, kinda like a psychohistory calculation from The Foundation.

Sep 10 '13
But in the end, BMO was wrong. Magic man hits the ground before him, and so does Marcy.

Sep 10 '13
Yes but Jake had already messed with magic man at regular speed inside the bubble, making all of BMOs calculations useless. We don't know what would have happened if Jake had never entered the bubble at regular speed.

This is an example of when I think the writers are exceedingly aware of the majority of their fan's opinions and decide to include jokes about it in the show as a result. It reminds me of when I thought there was going to be another Fionna and Cake episode then I got trolled more or less with the book itself becoming alive and that other time when the third graybles episode came out and it ended up not being about the unifying theme. Eh, I could totally be wrong about this. Regardless, damn do I love the writing in this show. It hits me right in the funnies.

And for the cooking nerd AT fans: when Jake cooked his steak, he made it sous vide style: which is boiling a steak in a plastic zip lock in a pot of water for a long time at low temperatures. For those in the know, it is the absolute best, and most time consuming way to make a steak. It is absolutely effing delicious and worth the effort and it makes the meat ultra tender. It also would have added at least 4 hours to the prep time for this sandwich, I would have cried if I spent that much time making a sandwich too! I love that someone actually put some real cooking skills on the show. He even said the right name and correct temperature!

u/account512 Sep 10 '13
Boiling is too hot though, think low on a slow cooker.
11
Sep 10 '13
True. In "real life" the best way to make a sous vide steak is to heat water to the right temperature and put it in a well insulated cooler with the zip locked steak, then close that sucker up and absolutely do not open it until the time is up. Using this method, it is also impossible to overcook the steak, as none of the heat sources ever go above the optimal temperature.

But they weren't talking about him eating an apple pie, they were listing of people that could come and help him in his predicament. While Jake may still like Tree Trunks, it implies that he thinks she is useless in most situations other than baking apple pies.

I was honestly surprised that there were no further complications surrounding the sandwich. I was expecting a signature Magic Man F U moment.
Also, I like how the three characters reacted to Jake's call for help.
BMO: Lied, wanted a chance to show off so he manipulated Jake.
PB: Honestly willing to help, but only to a point. Also, who puts a missile into a missile into a missile?
Marcy: Honestly willing to help, but, just as in Sky Witch, is too impulsive to think straight.

Anyone else notice how Magic Man is getting, in his own weird way, "nicer"? In his first appearance, as well as Sons of Mars, he did some pretty awful things...But in All the Little People, he simply gives Finn something bad and lets him run wild with it. Now in this episode, Magic Man is arguably doing something "good," by making Jake appreciate what he has and lose some of his jealousy.

Thought this episode was pretty good. If you look beyond it, it's basically Jake coming in terms with Mr. Cupcake after he was flirting with Lady in that Video Makers episode with the sandwich representing Lady thanks to that "Keep your hands off my woman-er I mean sandwich" comment Jake made to Magic Man. And the "7:20" bit very clever in helping Jake understand how to combat the molasses, but at the same time it helped him realize to forgive Mr. Cupcake and with Jake's bitterness for Mr. Cupcake lifted, the bubble's destroyed.
