=== [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2415565/8/Calvin_Hobbes_The_Series_SEASON_ONE Continued from] [[Calvin and Hobbes: theThe Series (Fanfic)/Recap/S1 E7/E07 The Black Turning Funnel Part 1|The Black Turning Funnel Part 1]] ===
 
When we last left our heroes, they were being tossed around in the wind, a tornado close by. After some (very silly) confessions, the duo are thrown into the tornado. Activating Full Throttle mode on the box, Calvin attempts to fly out... [[Anticlimax|only for the tornado to suddenly get sucked up back into the clouds.]]
Line 6:
Calvin remarks on how easy that was, but Hobbes notes that the tornado had merely touched down elsewhere. [[Time for Plan B|Switching to Plan B,]] Calvin rockets towards the tornado, circling it. Whilst doing so, the pair witness a cow and a man riding his bike fly by (the former they see ''twice'').

Line 12:
Calvin's bizarre idea actually ''works'', and the tornado thins out once again. As he remarks on how they've saved their home ([[My Friends and Zoidberg|and everyone else as well]]), about [[Oh Crap|twenty tornadoes]] come down to earth, one landing ''right on top of the duo.'' Being thrown across the air, they see several objects doing likewise, one of which being a tree housing two hawks. After a brief conversation/argument with the elder, Wallace, the duo [[Smoke Out]].
 
Calvin attempts to think of a plan, eventually trying to transmogrify it. However, he's scooped up yet again before he can do so. He manages to shoot it, but not before realizing ''[[Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress|he's fifty feet in the air.]]''
 
After landing, Calvin quickly realizes ''there are several barnyard animals in his front yard.'' [[Oh Crap|And his parents are arriving home.]]
Line 24:
* [[Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress]]: Calvin after transmogrifying the tornado.
* [[I Can't Hear You]]: The example from the last part is subverted; Calvin knew what Hobbes was saying on the roof all along.
* [[Insistent Terminology]]: The elder hawk refuses to call tornadoes by their name, only referring to them as "cyclones". This ends up becoming a downplayed and [[Played for Laughs]] version of [[Poor Communication Kills]].
* [[It Makes Sense in Context]]: [[In -Universe]] example when Calvin's parents arrive home to several farm animals standing in their front yard.
* [[My Friends and Zoidberg]]:
{{quote| '''Calvin:''' Well. We've saved our home from total havoc.<br />
'''Hobbes:''' What about everybody else?<br />
'''Calvin:''' Uh... Yeah. Them too. }}
* [[Oh Crap]]: Calvin during the above [[It Makes Sense in Context]] moment.
* [[Shout-Out]]/[[Plagiarism]]: This line seems awfully reminiscent of ''[[SpongebobSpongeBob SquarePants]]'':
{{quote| '''Hobbes:''' Calvin, I rolled up your Captain Napalm comic and used it to clean out my ears!}}
** This exchange, however, is definitely a [[Shout-Out]]:
{{quote| '''Hobbes:''' [[Lampshade Hanging|Well. All this needs now is the]] [[Wizard of Oz]] [[Lampshade Hanging|theme.]]<br />
'''Calvin:''' Shall I sing it for you?<br />
'''Hobbes:''' No. }}
Line 43:
* [[Time for Plan B]]: Calvin's Plan B is rocketing straight towards the tornado.
* [[Title Drop]]: By Hobbes:
{{quote| "I was just thinking. Remember that dream I had this morning? It was about a funnel, remember? We actually saw and fought against a funnel! A Black Turning Funnel!"}}
* [[Why Didn't You Just Say So?]]: Wallace's [[Insistent Terminology]] results in a Type A.
