The Adventures of Pete and Pete/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Almost every character gets at least one if not more:

  • Little Pete crashing a jetski into the public pool in "Splashdown"...which is then topped later in the episode by Little Pete being fully prepared to give up a summer of swimming by diving into the pool literally 5 seconds before adult swim ends in protest.
  • Little Pete gets several more during the episode "Dance Fever": He eats 15 buckets of cream corn to get out of going to the dance, then goes and shows his the cream corn pumped from his stomach to kids for money, gets a teacher telling him to clean up said cream corn when his enemy spills it to pay him a dollar, uses floor wax to slide away from his enemy Pit Stain, and then uses said wax to save Nona from her dancing with her dad. Whew.
  • Monica gets one for solving the case of who was peeing in the pool in "Splashdown".
  • Big Pete's Batman Gambit in "Field of Pete".
    • To Explain:He used Mr.Marrons obsession with the Orange Lazarus to cripple him and the entire team long enough to tie up the score, and then was ready to accept Little Pete destroying him, but knew that Little Pete's deep down goodness would win out.
  • The entire school's prank on Little Pete's principal during a mandatory ear-care assembly.
  • The ending of "On Golden Pete" is one for every Wrigly except Don. After Don banishes Big Pete from the boat for trying to save Bob, the bass he's been trying to catch, Little Pete realizes that his dad is gonna kill Bob and keeps the knife away from his dad so he can't cut the line. Joyce then signals to him, and also winks revealing she has something planned, and throws the knife to Big Pete who swims into the water and saves Bob.... By accidently taking his place. But it's still awesome.
  • The end of "The Call". Not only did Little Pete get all of the way to the phone, and while his freinds fell one by one, he succeds in answering it, doing what everyone(Including it's intended recipient) was too afraid to do.
    • Followed by the person that the call was meant for Joyce(The Petes' Mom), answering it.
  • Little Pete standing up to Paper Cut and getting all of his friends to join in, WITH WORDS.
    • Don(The Pete's Dad) standing up to the Big Bad who manipualted him throughout both episodes.
    • Don summoning Artie.
  • Little Pete reminding Big Pete that Daylight Savings Time has granted him a re-do of the previous hour to fix his royally-screwed up date with Ellen. It works.
  • Artie's final use of his catch phrase before he leaves the show stretches the traditional Dramatic Pause between "Stongest Man" and "in the World" into twenty seconds of awesome Fanfare as a steadycam pans around him in a circle.
