Maybe you ran out of time to fix the killer poison. Maybe you're made of paint or something. Maybe someone froze you and then heated you up really fast. Or, maybe you opened the Ark of the Covenant. Maybe you fell into lava or acid or something else that makes people melt. Point is, you're about to learn how a snowman feels in the spring. I'm Melting is when a character or other life form, for one reason or another, has a literal meltdown. It might look like: Collapsing into lumpy goo:. Probably one of the best and nastiest looking meltdowns one can find, it basically occurs when the subject slowly turns to goo all over, flesh falling and dripping from their body onto the floor. It doesn't usually leave a viscous puddle either, so much as a pile of soggy dough. This method was popularized by Raiders of the Lost Ark, and was cause for many a nightmare among kids at the time. From the ground up. The most classic example, in which only the part of the subject that touches the ground actually turns to liquid. Of course, this means that, sequentially, every part of the body will touch the ground, often giving the illusion of sinking into a shallow puddle. (The easiest way to stage this effect in live-action settings is to do exactly that, lowering the actor on a hidden trap door, often with their clothing gathering on the ground for added effect. See The Wizard of Oz or any of several Star Trek episodes.) Oddly, the victim will never be considered dead until their head has melted, which will be alive and speaking until the end despite their heart and lungs melting beforehand. Soda pop. This one was quite popular with Disney cartoons in the early to mid-'90s. In short, this one is very similar to From the ground up, except with the added effect of being very, VERY fizzy. Bubbles tend to actually rise off of the subject and pop in mid-air. Imagine an alka-seltzer sitting in a puddle of water, and you've got the idea here. Sometimes this will leave a nice clean puddle as if the resultant soda went flat, but other times, the subject may completely dissolve into a shrinking pile of fizz, or conveniently evaporate to leave nothing behind. Bones. One of the rarest types of meltdown, this is when everything but the skeleton is reduced to a puddle of Pepto-Bismol. Truth in Television, since bones, especially human bones, are very difficult to completely destroy. Cremated remains are mainly bits of bone — everything else evaporates. Another Nightmare Fuel method of melting someone. Vaporization. This is regarded as melting, but looks like it didn't just stop with turning the victim to a liquid. In fact, often, the liquid isn't even seen. It's as if they skipped a step, steaming and sublimating from the ground up. This is a common fate of enemies weak to water, sunlight, salt, certain poisons/acids, and of course, deconstructive nanobots. Note that this can be a subtrope of No Body Left Behind and Everything Fades, although it can lead to Empty Piles of Clothing in works where Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing. It can also be played for comedic effect, with the victim restored to normal in the next scene. A subtrope of this is Lustful Melt. When the character in question doesn't die and is played for laughs, it's Harmless Liquefaction. Due to the fact in fiction people often say this when they are melting (often as a Stock Shout-Out to The Wizard of Oz), this could be considered an example of Captain Obvious. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

In RoboCop, one of Clarence Boddicker's goons, Emil Antonowsky, gets soaked in industrial waste after running his van into a tank of the corrosive stuff. He starts slowly melting (while still alive!), while shambling around in pain. Clarence eventually hits Emil with his car, at which point he's so melted that his body literally explodes into goo on impact. Being Clarence, he seems more upset over the mild inconvenience Emil's goo had on driving than the death of his lackey, the jerk. | |

In Attack of the Mutant, the protagonist defeats the titular supervillain by getting him to melt himself. (The Masked Mutant is a shapeshifter who can turn into any solid at will and change back again. The protagonist tricks the Mutant into turning into a wave of sulfuric acid — which is a liquid, meaning he can't change back.) | |

Guyver: In the film adaptation of The Guyver, after Sean has the unit literally pulled out from his head by Lisker. Also in the more successful sequel, Guyver: Dark Hero. Once the villainous Guyver Zoanoid is mortally wounded in battle, Sean pulls out the unit from his head. It melts down to a skeleton, which was only briefly seen before Guyver finished him off in his signature style. |

Darkwing Duck has a lot of fun with this: Bud Flood yells this word-for-word after falling into a vat of contaminated water. Darkwing thinks he's being a baby as he tries to pull him out...until he sees that the pole he was trying to grab him with had dissolved. This is a unique instance of this trope as not only did Bud survive, he actually benefited from it and became the Liquidator. A water-based being with the power to control all water. Honker dispatches a pair of giant slugs with the salt packet from his french fries. In "Slime Okay, You're Okay", one of Bushroot's failed experiments in creating companionship for himself results in "Intelligence, Indigestion, Insanity, and In a Puddle" — and almost kills Gosalyn when she gets exposed to it. (She still hates the cure: plain soap and water.) Splatter Phoenix, a villainess who could turn any painting into a Portal Picture, attempts to kill the heroes in this manner by dousing the picture they were trapped in with turpentine. Too bad for her that that particular picture was penciled as well as painted. However, she herself was just painted, making her demise a case of Death by Irony. |

In the Goosebumps (1995) episode "Attack of the Mutant", said mutant's supervillain power was his ability to turn into anything, with one exception: If he turns into a liquid, he can't turn back. The Kid Hero defeats him by telling him he should try turning into acid. This is depicted as the villain evaporating away while his costume (and mask) crumple up flat, into a steamy pile of clothes. | |

Enchanted Forest Chronicles: Wizards react the same way to soapy water with a little lemon juice in it. Why this occurs is never explained; it seems to have something to do with their magic, and probably also with the fact their appearance is repeatedly described as "greasy". They recover somehow, but it does put them out of commission for awhile. The lemon juice is a critical component, as well. Later on, Telemain develops a spell that replicates the effect. It's more portable than buckets and can be used multiple times in rapid succession without having to reload (again unlike a bucket), but it doesn't last quite as long as an actual bucketful of soapy lemon water (possibly because the puddle is pure wizard, without the melting agent mixed in). Averted by a friendly witch who was splashed at the same time as the wizards in one book. The princess who soaked them figured the witch would be safe (if wet) because she kept a very tidy and clean home, and there's no way someone that good at house-cleaning would have any problems with soap and water. |

In Dilbert's company, Accounting is a horrific nightmare realm whose employees are literal trolls and their superior is an evil witch (or wizard — gender doesn't really matter in Accounting). Dilbert transforms him into a troll just from breathing the air, and he is promptly put to work erasing budgets for various departments. Then he is given the budget of the Accounting department itself... | |

Calvin and Hobbes: One of Calvin's Imagine Spots involves it being so hot outside that he melts, leaving only his clothes behind. His melted remains then evaporate and then rain, restoring him to solid form, and a now naked Calvin runs off. The strip ends with Calvin's mother picking up his clothes off the sidewalk while muttering "Not again!" In another Imagine Spot, Calvin imagines drinking one glass of water too many, so that his body becomes 90% water and melts. |

SCP Foundation: SCP-2207 ("Dimensional Razor") is a plastic knife that can cut open portals to other universes, but it also messes with the physical laws of those universes as a result, resulting in an "Yggdrasil-Severance Event" that disconnects each universe from the multiverse. One example happens in Exploration #46, where everything, including living beings, sags down and melts in less than 10 minutes. SCP-3001 ("Red Reality") is a Pocket Dimension with extremely low Hume levels. Foundation researcher Robert Scranton got trapped inside it thanks to a Freak Lab Accident. As time passed by, his own Hume levels started to decrease, causing his body to disappear piece by piece. Even worse, he remained alive and conscious through it all. |

Anti-AT field: quick, painless and 100% effective. Episode 20 has a similar thing happening to Shinji: he immersed into his berserking Eva so much his body melted into LCL and they had to figure out how to rebuild it and bind his soul in it. Same thing happened to his mother while he was watching, by the way. |

Is present in Undertale in a most nightmarish way possible. Killing Undyne causes her to melt. In Neutral Route, her sprite wavers while piano version of "Ruins" plays in the background, and then she melts while screaming that she can't die yet. In Genocide attempting to kill Monster Kid causes her to sacrifice herself. Than her sprite begins wavering again, but now she decides that she cannot die yet and becomes one of two Genocide bosses that actually can do something to stop you. In the end, she melts, but this time she's smiling, because she is sure that someone will stop you. This is explained on a Pacifist Route in the True Lab. It turns out that monsters can't handle large amounts of Determination like humans can; too much of it causes them to melt. While the Amalgamates were injected with Determination that was taken from human souls, it's implied that Undyne had some of her own, although it's unknown if it's possible with other monsters or not. | |

Batman Beyond, when Inque comes in contact with water. And later, when her protégé tries to become like her. Oh, he survives. Unfortunately. Worth noting is that Inque is not permanently incapacitated by water, it's just a major inconvenience. However, her form makes her dependent on mutagen, and when someone slips something nasty into it later on, she completely dissolves and evaporates. Although she is never seen again in the series after this, Batman still doesn't trust that she is gone for good. | |

Mortal Kombat: In Mortal Kombat II, one of Shang Tsung's Fatalties causes his opponent's flesh to melt off of their skin as he takes their soul. There's also knocking an opponent into the Deadpool. In Mortal Kombat 9, one of Smoke's Fatalities has him fill his opponent's body with corrosive smoke, causing their flesh to melt off of their bones. In Mortal Kombat X, one of Reptile's Fatalities has him spit a puddle of acid at the opponent's feet, causing their body to slowly dissolve until only an arm is left. Downplayed in Mortal Kombat 11 with one of Erron Black's fatalities, wherein he throws a jar of acid on the ground, kneecaps his opponent, then pushes their head into the acid puddle, melting half of their head before stomping on the remaining half. |

X-Men Film Series Seen in X-Men, with Senator Kelly, whose body has turned very unstable by Magneto's mutation-inducing machine. It starts with the hand Storm was clutching, and then everything is broken down until becoming pure water! Iceman in X-Men: Days of Future Past by three Sentinels in the climax, as his "frozen body" form is torn down. |

Supplemental material for the EXA_PICO series indicates that this happens to Pureblooded Reyvateils when they die — their bodies are created from biofluid, and only retain that shape for as long as the Reyvateil lives. (This doesn't happen to Halfblooded Reyvateils because they're functionally humans with Reyvateil powers.) | |

The Legend of Zelda: In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Like-likes will slowly melt into a puddle before burning away. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past features an enemy made of ice completely resistant to everything but fire magic, which reduces it to a shrinking puddle. In some older 2.5 betas of Zelda Classic, there is some unused sprites of Wizzrobes, depicting them as melting into a pile of clothes, and reappearing elsewhere. Since there is no way to place these sprites in a Wizzrobe's animation (they just flicker with their normal sprites), this never took off. In Zelda: Wand of Gamelon, Hectan undergoes the effervescent variety when Zelda defeats him, leaving behind a (suspiciously beating) Heart Container. |

In Naked Lunch, one of the parties of Interzone are the Liquefactionists, a group devoted to liquidating and absorbing their rivals. Inevitably, they always turn on each other. Eventually, there will only be one Liquefactionist left, and that person will have won. Most readers interpret them as a caricature of the cutthroat nature of capitalism. | |

The Super Mario Bros. has Koopa mention early in the film that all life started out as primeval slime, foreshadowing the film's climax, where Mario and Luigi turn the De-evolutionizing De-vo guns on him until he turns back into primeval slime himself. Interestingly, there was a deleted clip from early in the film in which the De-vo chamber operator himself was De-evolved into slime. If you watch the film closely, you'll notice a green puddle during the De-vo chamber fight. | |

In the Fallout games, plasma weapons have a special effects death wherein the victim dissolves into a puddle of green slime. In Fallout 3, this is accompanied by a wet, slurpy sort of sound — lasers, which burn the target to ashes, have a crisp, crackling, burning sort of noise. The Fallout 3 versions are considerably different from Fallout and Fallout 2, though plasma still reduces its victim to goo. Or rather, it melts the flesh off the bones, which promptly collapse into the resultant puddle for a stereotypical 'Bones' version. Lasers just cut victims in half (or thirds depending). Fallout 3's lasers actually act more like Fallout 2's pulse rifles in that regard, incidentally. This also happens to the player character upon activating Project Purity at the end of the game, unless the Broken Steel expansion pack is installed. Since there are too many of them to leave intact corpses without excessive performance drag, the Marked Men in the final battle of Lonesome Road all undergo plasma melting after death. | |

Batman: Batman: The Animated Series, when several of Poison Ivy's "children" (and seemingly herself) come in contact with weed killer. Batman Beyond, when Inque comes in contact with water. And later, when her protégé tries to become like her. Oh, he survives. Unfortunately. Worth noting is that Inque is not permanently incapacitated by water, it's just a major inconvenience. However, her form makes her dependent on mutagen, and when someone slips something nasty into it later on, she completely dissolves and evaporates. Although she is never seen again in the series after this, Batman still doesn't trust that she is gone for good. |

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the inspiration for the Trope Namer. After the Wicked Witch of the West steals one of the Silver Slippers from Dorothy, the girl becomes so enraged, she dumps a bucket of water all over the witch, who then melts before Dorothy's eyes. Note that it's not nearly instantaneous: the witch has enough time for a dialogue in which she asks the stupid question "did you not know water could destroy me?" Even (especially) as a child, it's obvious to the reader that had she known, Dorothy would have done it weeks ago. Worth noting is that the book provides a surprisingly legitimate reason for this: The witch magically kept herself alive for so long that her body had essentially mummified and dried to a dust that, due to this same magic, held intact right where it all belonged "like brown sugar", until Dorothy introduced a solvent to it. In the film though, water simply causes her to evaporate into steam, presumably because "it's Oz". | |

Indy and Marion wisely keep their eyes closed, while the Nazis and Belloq suffer God's wrath. Those who look end up being killed gruesomely by the Ark, but Toht is the one whose death stands out, as his face literally melts off of his skull in liquid form. He is left gurgling on his own blood even after most of his skin has been graphically reduced to a fleshy puddle, implying that he's drowning in his own blood as his flesh liquefies. | |

Space Quest: In Sierra's Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter, being hit by a drop of acid has it "sear its way to your feet" (through your head), but the VGA remake dissolves Roger the protagonist top-down, into a puddle of goo and a really stupid-looking head in a protective helmet. The VGA remake also features the trope name spoken in a sound clip when this happens. In Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge, Roger can fall into a death trap of green acid. Contrary to type, it kills him gradually, complete with descriptive text! In Space Quest III: The Pirates of Pestulon (and an easter egg in Space Quest IV), going unprotected on a volcanic world causes Roger to melt into a puddle. Roger can also (rather easily) fall into the lava, and the Have a Nice Death picture was accompanied with a half-melted, mostly skeletal Roger trying to get out of the goo. In Space Quest IV: Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers, being caught by a slime monster causes Roger to fall straight into it, with a suitable shot of his half-skeletal form trying to claw his way back out. Nobody melts in Space Quest V: The Next Mutation. We thought we'd mention that for the novelty value. The Pukoids seem half-melted, though. In Space Quest VI: Roger Wilco in the Spinal Frontier, Roger can fall into a pool of acid, with a suitable scene of flailing around and bobbing to the surface with his flesh melted off before a ground-up sizzling into oblivion. |

This happens a lot on Kim Possible: "Kimitation Nation": When Drakken sent clones of Kim and Bonnie, as well as Ron and Rufus, to attack Kim, Kim was able to melt the clones by spraying soda water at them. "Day of the Snowmen": Kim and Ron held an army of zombie snowmen at bay by melting them with a flamethrower and packets of hot-sauce. "So the Drama": Eric met his defeat when Rufus bit him in the ankle, causing his syntho-gel to leak. Shortly after Kim and Ron got together, Ron had a recurring nightmare that, after their first dance, Kim turned into a syntho-drone and melted. |

Characters in the Army Men games who are attacked with a flamethrower will flatten out into a puddle and fade away. Justified because all the characters are plastic toy soldiers, which will melt in high temperatures. | |

Almost all the enemies in Grabbed by the Ghoulies will do this upon death. The effect interestingly begins with the enemy's body glowing a bright green light before falling into a body-shaped stain on the floor. | |

Would you believe that wholesome Archie Comics published not one, but two stories featuring this trope? The original Life with Archie series (1958-1991) featured longer, more "adventure" oriented stories than the typical Archie titles, including one with a mysterious Satanic box that melts people's faces off. From 1972 to 1974, Archie published a Sabrina the Teenage Witch spinoff, Chilling Adventures in Sorcery as Told by Sabrina. It had the odd combination of straight-up horror stories with art in the familiar Archie house style and Sabrina acting as Horror Host. One story, in particular, stands out, featuring a boy who teases a stutterer at school. The kindly teacher happens to be a witch, and gives him an enchanted book that melts his face off, and possibly kills him! |

There exist a couple of Pokémon (especially blobby or water-based ones) that can learn a move called Acid Armor, which is sort of invoking this trope. Contrary to the trope's outcome, though, it doesn't kill the Pokémon, it just raises its defense a lot. | |

Godzilla vs. Hedorah's titular Big Bad, the pollution monster Hedorah, is shown killing unfortunate people in numerous different ways as he seeks out new sources of pollution to feed on, this method being one of them. Hedorah is able to fire concentrated jets of sulphuric acid vapour from his body which reduce anyone unlucky enough to be caught by the jets to nothing but bones on the ground. |

Scooby-Doo: Late in the animated movie Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, Freddy, Daphne, and Velma are tied up, as wax voodoo dolls of themselves are tossed dangerously close to a fire (Oh, and btw, the supernatural stuff is for real this time.) The actual character's faces visually start to melt before Scooby runs in and pulls the voodoo dolls away from the fire. In the sequel to the above, Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost Shaggy runs into Sarah Ravencroft, a real witch, or the ghost of her, and tries this. She just glared at Shaggy. |

Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition: The spell infallible servant from the book Exemplar of Evil can turn a creature into a foul sludge if slain or captured after casting, making it impossible to interrogate or resurrect. Note that this spell is mostly cast on willing subjects. The Keepers, an Outsider race described in the Fiend Folio, have this as a racial trait. If they are captured or pinned down for more than 10 rounds, they dissolve into a puddle of poison. |

The Proud Family: In "Tween Town", Al Roker grants Penny's wish of making the adults disappear after she and her friends get caught sneaking out to his nightclub at the mall and get grounded. After all that fun, the kids soon decide they miss their parents and want them to come home and need Roker to reverse the wish. The only way to do that is with a game of Double Dutch, but Roker defeats Penny by one jump, and could likely have Bebe and Cece working for him along with the other adults making his one-size-fits-all Roker wear. However, Uncle Bobby managed to avoid becoming a victim of the wish, being that he's a kid at heart, and because he's the only adult who never fell victim to the wish, Penny's contract is declared null and void. The outcome for Roker: he melts! The movie has the family facing off with the mad scientist Dr. Carver. The real Dr. Carver invented a powerful Peanut Liquefication Gas to turn any bad experiments into peanut butter. When the Dr. Carver clone creates an army of Super Genomes to take over the world, plus, evil clones of the titular family, Penny takes the gas and risks her life to defeat the clone and stop the army. She succeeds, and the clone picks up the smell of the gas and destabilizes into a little peanut when he is mere moments away from hitting the water after falling off the blimp. |

In Street Trash, a long-expired alcoholic drink called "Tenafly Viper" causes those who drink it to slowly and grotesquely melt into multicolored sludge. The most famous scene involves a hobo slowly melting into the toilet bowl he's sitting on, his arm breaking off at the wrist when he tries to grab the flush handle to pull himself out. He's quickly reduced to a groaning, half-melted head bobbing around in the bowl. | |

The Joker subverts this trope (what else?) in Batman, when Vicki Vale throws a pitcher of water at him in order to distract him. After impersonating The Wicked Witch and crying "I'm melting!" for a few seconds, he then shouts "Boo!" at Vicki, just before Batman smashes through the skylight in probably the iconic Big Damn Heroes moment of the film. This also reveals that the Joker's iconic chalky-white skin really is his skin now in this version, not makeup like we've been led to believe, and that the normal skin tone he had before in this scene is the makeup instead. | |

An infamous example would be the anime adaptation of Barefoot Gen during the scene in which Hiroshima was bombed. It's an absolutely horrific 3-and-a-half minute sequence of men, women, children and animals graphically melting from the atom bomb's extreme heat. Usually the first part of them to melt is their eyes, which gruesomely drip out of their sockets. Truth in Television, of course, since that actually happened to those unfortunate to be caught in the blast radius during the atomic bombings. | |

"One + One = Ed" had Jimmy melt down into a puddle because Eddy removed his "outer lines" (in other words, he pulled off of the ink outlines like they were wires and left the colored part to melt away). The episode later has Sarah confront Ed about it, holding Jimmy in a lemonade pitcher. Turns out it was just their imagination and never happened...or did it? |

("Who puts a heater in an ice cream factory?!") In "Operation: C.H.O.C.O.L.A.T.E.", when Heinrich Von Marzipan is fighting Numbuh Five in a spacecraft, she has it en route for the sun. Getting the spacecraft close enough, it's enough for Heinrich's chocolaty body to melt (this is due to Heinrich having fallen in the chocolate volcano in "Operation: R.A.B.B.I.T.", causing him to mutate into a chocolate monster). |

From 1972 to 1974, Archie published a Sabrina the Teenage Witch spinoff, Chilling Adventures in Sorcery as Told by Sabrina. It had the odd combination of straight-up horror stories with art in the familiar Archie house style and Sabrina acting as Horror Host. One story, in particular, stands out, featuring a boy who teases a stutterer at school. The kindly teacher happens to be a witch, and gives him an enchanted book that melts his face off, and possibly kills him! | |

The Tokusatsu show Message from Space: Galactic Battle (Uchu kara no messeji: Ginga taisen, better known as San Ku Kaï in Europe or Sankuokai in Latin America) features one villain of the week with water-based powers who melts into foam when killed, which then takes fire. (It stands out because most other villains would rather explode.) | |

Elfen Lied has a particularly gruesome case in the last chapter. Lucy's psychic powers slowly damage her body on a molecular level and during the finale she uses them to such a great extent that parts of her slowly start to liquefy. In her moment of redemption, she uses all the power she has to save Kouta and his friends which literally causes her skin and flesh to melt. First, the arms and legs fall off and during the death scene she is only a melting skull and torso and asks to be covered by a jacket so the others (and the readers) don't have to see her like that during her final minutes. To add to the heartbreak, she uses her one vector to give a gun to Kouta as she begs him to end her suffering. | |

In Star Control Origins, the Pinthi virus is stated to cause a wide variety of symptoms among different lifeforms, but almost all of them eventually end up liquefying in the end. The Pinthi themselves often use "liquefy" as a synonym for "kill". | |

In Dragon Ball Z, the "collapse into lumpy goo" variant is how Imperfect Cell absorbs people. When Piccolo first confronts Cell, the latter stabs a man with his tail and kills him this way. Unlike most of the lumpy goo types, it's doesn't show it in a bloody fashion, surprisingly for Dragon Ball Z, as their skin actually remains mostly intact (albeit turning gray and rotting). He's unable to use this on the Androids, so he has to eat them whole. | |

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Course: Oblivion", the crew of Voyager discover that they are biomimetic copies of themselves when the Doctor injects B'Elanna Torres's dead body with a dichromate catalyst, which instantly causes it to revert into a blob of "silver blood" from the earlier "Demon" episode. Later on, the biomimetic Voyager itself disintegrates into formless particles when force fields holding the dissolving ship together fail. | |

Metroid: Shoot tinbots with the plasma beam in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, and they will sink into bright puddles. Super Metroid: A particularly brutal and graphic example occurs when the mini-boss Crocomire is pushed into a pit of acid. After bobbing up and down a bit trying to get out, it screams at a very high pitch and flesh starts peeling off in gooey streaks until only the skeleton remains. |

In The Smurfs episode "The Smurfs of the Round Table", Morgan le Fey steals Excalibur, uses it to turn King Arthur and his men to wax, and then casts a spell on the sun to make it burn hotter so that King Arthur and everything in Camelot will melt away. Fortunately, the melting process takes time, which gives the Smurfs enough time to get Excalibur back from the evil sorceress and to restore everyone in Camelot to normal. | |

In I'll Return as the Rain, after Flying on a Cloud for a bit, Guda-Guda the snowman and a girl land in a sunny area. The location proves to be a bit too sunny for the snowman, as he becomes exhausted from the heat and starts to melt. The girl tries to find some snow to help revive him, but by the time she comes back Guda-Guda has melted completely. Thankfully, Guda-Guda later comes back to life in the form of raindrops, and he and the girl are soon happily playing together once more. | |

Happens occasionally in Spongebob Squarepants: In "Pre-Hibernation Week", SpongeBob melts into yellow goo when Sandy takes him on one dangerous exercise regimen too many. In "Chocolate with Nuts", SpongeBob and Patrick melt when the crazed fish that has been chasing them throughout the episode asks to buy all their chocolate. In "Moving Bubble Bass", this happens to Bubble Bass when Patrick intimidates him for making SpongeBob move his junk, leaving his Eye Glasses floating in midair until they drop into the puddle. |

The movie has the family facing off with the mad scientist Dr. Carver. The real Dr. Carver invented a powerful Peanut Liquefication Gas to turn any bad experiments into peanut butter. When the Dr. Carver clone creates an army of Super Genomes to take over the world, plus, evil clones of the titular family, Penny takes the gas and risks her life to defeat the clone and stop the army. She succeeds, and the clone picks up the smell of the gas and destabilizes into a little peanut when he is mere moments away from hitting the water after falling off the blimp. | |

Gravity Falls: In "Headhunters", the wax figure of Abraham Lincoln is found melted under a sunny window. Grunkle Stan immediately suspects Wax John Wilkes Booth. The living wax figures are later defeated in the same way, with Wax Sherlock Holmes melting onscreen. In "Double Dipper", the copier clones can be destroyed by liquids. Dipper triggers the fire sprinklers to kill most of them, while Tyrone accidentally kills himself by drinking soda. |
