Recurring Extra

comment
Recurring Extra: The wind-up penguins from the line for the carnival ride (one of whom is named Claude) appear later having a birthday party, and then in the audience, and finally on the Ferris wheel. The toy tomato, cat, lion, dinosaur, and robot from the carnival ride line can also be seen in the audience. The bathroom line consists of a toy alien, an orange teddy bear, a small toy horse, an orange wind-up toy, a pink toy cat, an octopus-like toy, a black box-type toy, a red toy with springs, and a toy snake. All of them later show up in the audience. When Alan is about to wee in a teapot, some monkeys can be seen. The monkeys later appear on the Ferris wheel. The toy banana seen in the audience later shows up on the Ferris wheel.

Potty Dance: Alan squirms when he needs to pee, to the point where he's mistaken for actually dancing several times. In the line for the boys' bathroom, there are nine toys, seven of which are squirming (the other two look unhappy but are staying still).

Mistaken for Toilet: Implied — Robot tells Alan that the teapot is a "teapot, not a wee-pot" implying that Alan thought it was meant to be urinated into.

Vague Age: Alan putting off going to the bathroom makes him seem like a little kid, but his being at the fair with only his friends seems to put him at around preteen age at the youngest, unless there's an Intergenerational Friendship happening.

Pun: At the end, Alan says that he needs a "wee" again, then yells, "Wee!" (as in, the exclamation) since he is on a Ferris wheel.

Cloudcuckoolander's Minder: Downplayed for Giraffe and Robot — Alan's not really a Cloud Cuckoolander, but he's bad at prioritising, and would rather do things he enjoys than go to the bathroom even when he knows he needs to, so they try to get him to go to the bathroom instead.
