  His reaction to Abraham Lincoln just being introduced into this with no buildup is everything.

  So fun fact about Abraham Lincoln: in the original draft of the episode "Sons of Mars", when Lincoln gave up his immortality to restore Jake's life, the scene would have shown Lincoln being transported back to the moment of his death at Ford's Theater, with the scene cutting to black as the sound of a gunshot rang out. The gunshot sound is still present in the episode, but Cartoon Network understandably demanded they cut the shot of the theater itself.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDF9e59XOk0&amp;t=1970">32:50</a> the story behind the editing scene is actually pretty crazy. In one of the original farmworld episodes, there was an animation error where the crown was still on simon’s head after Finn had already taken it. Now in this episode Prismo edits the timeline and retcons an animation error and makes it canon.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDF9e59XOk0&amp;t=1652">27:32</a> The reason why the lich became a thing in the farm world dimension is because he is the direct result of the mushroom bomb, so wishing that the lich never existed meant the bomb never went off so if the bomb were to go off the lich would exist again. &nbsp;For clarity I am not typing this comment out of anger I just want to make sure anyone who reads this and doesn&apos;t understand how that worked now understands it better

  Actually, only the intial trio are &quot;was once smarter&quot;. <br><br>Presumably, once Bubblegum knuckled down on creating Candy People, the Dum Dum formula was used as a fundamental part of the recipe rather then applied after making her citizens.<br><br>They can&apos;t miss what they never had.<br><br>Edit:<br>Also The Candy People were in the middle of burying the radioactive waste when Shoko fell in.

  The easiest way to explain why it took so long for ice king to become ice king is that he started out not accepting the crowns maximum power but gunther did

  the video didn’t mention how martin even got into space to take the deal, so here’s a summary of that:<br>After being struck down by Grob Gob Glob Grod, he was sent to another planet where most inhabitants are slaves. Martin escapes, using the other slaves as tools. He steals the king’s moth and flies into space

  So interesting thing, they eventually made 4 more final episodes of the Adventure Time where we actually see Finn and Jake on one final Adventure that ends with Finn rejecting another opportunity of immortality so he can die peacefully together with Jake, marking the end of their adventures

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDF9e59XOk0&amp;t=1970">32:50</a> Fun fact: Prismo doing this actually retcons an animation error from the first episode with Farmworld Finn. There is a scene in that episode where Simon&apos;s corpse is shown wearing the crown when he shouldn&apos;t be (as Farmworld Finn is currently going crazy with it on), and Prismo literally editing it into there (so it&apos;s destroyed by the nuke) gives us an in-universe explanation.<br><br>Best use of a retcon I&apos;ve seen in a cartoon (so far).
