Artistic License – Ornithology | |
| Molly of Denali / int_11ee737 | comment |
Artistic License – Ornithology: The premise of "Eagle Egg Hunt" is that Molly must re-position a naturalist's webcam so viewers won't miss the hatching of three bald eagle chicks. Actual raptor eggs are laid, and hatch, a day or two apart, ensuring that one chick will be younger and weaker: if there's not enough food for a trio of chicks, the youngest automatically loses out and dies rather than all three starving slowly. | |

| Molly of Denali / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: In "Cry Wolf," Walter says that there is no one except himself, Molly, the birds, and the sky. Just then, the bushes rustle and the Kratts show up. In "Heat Wave," Midge thinks that her fan can still work after falling. She stands corrected when it doesn't. In "Wise Raven and Old Crow," Connie offers to take care of the baby moose. She already has some turkeys, so she figures that the turkeys and moose should get along fine. Cut to the moose scaring the turkeys and them running away from each other. | |

Nat is fluent in both Gwich'in and Dena'ina, and he grew up without electricity or indoor plumbing. Auntie Midge is Han Gwich'in. Walter's Native name, Yaadekuh, is Koyukon. | |

Failed a Spot Check | |
| Molly of Denali / int_21e5b9c7 | comment |
Failed a Spot Check: In "Cry Wolf," Molly asks the Kratts if wolves sleep outside when they travel, or if they stay inside caves. The brothers somehow didn't notice the cave right behind them. In "It Came From Beyond," Molly and Trini read online that they can get rid of vetch flowers by using a weed whacker. They failed to notice the part where it says "Weed whack before the vetch flowers or the seeds will spread." Because of this, the vetch flowers spread their seeds and grow new flowers in the process. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Molly of Denali / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Trini's lucky rock in "Dream Tube". After Molly and Tooey dismiss the rock as not being an agate, Trini uses it as her lucky rock. It later comes in handy when it's discovered to really be an agate and Auntie Midge buys it for $30, meaning that the kids have enough money to buy a tube. Mr. Patak's canoe in "Have Canoe, Will Paddle". He builds one despite not knowing much about canoes. Later, it comes in handy when the kids use it for the canoe race after they get a hole in their original canoe. | |

Alpha and Beta Wolves: A realistic example based in fact in "Cry Wolf." Molly learns about how wolf packs are led by the alpha breeding pair. However, there is no such 'beta' because the wolves are like family. | |

Bilingual Bonus: The characters all pepper their dialogue with words and phrases from various indigenous languages. Tooey's dad also drops a few Japanese words once in a while. Most of the time translations are provided either directly or by context. The main exceptions to this are during performances of Native songs. | |

Ace Pilot | |

Ace Pilot: Molly's mom Layla is a bush pilot, and is complimented on her piloting throughout the podcast. She knows everything that's going on in interior Alaska: what scientists are where and which ones always get into trouble, what the weather will be and if it's dangerous to fly or not. Trini's mom Joy is an Army helicopter pilot and very capably pilots a rescue mission to the top of Mount Denali in "Molly and the Great One." | |

Big Eater: Suki the Alaskan Malamute, as shown throughout the podcast. She loves to eat everything, even food that isn't supposed to be for dogs. Eventually, she is revealed to have stolen Molly's strawberry birthday cake. Molly's cousin, Randall, is another example; his introduction episode shows him frequently eating and talking about food. In "Wise Raven and Old Crow," Bonky the baby moose is noted by the characters to be super hungry all the time. | |

Dream Sequence: In "It Came From Beyond," Trini has a pretty surreal dream about a talking bird vetch. She asks to invite some friends. Then the next morning, more vetch plants pop up in Molly's garden. Trini then has a second dream where she asks the flowers to leave, but they respond poorly to her concerns. | |

Missing Mom | |
| Molly of Denali / int_66dfe36a | comment |
Missing Mom: It is unknown where Trini and Tooey's mothers are. Averted later in Tooey's case, where his mother, Atsaq, is mentioned in "The Name Game" and "Fiddle of Nowhere" and makes full appearances in "Operation:Sleepover" and "Porcupine Slippers" with an Early-Bird Cameo in "Bye Bye Birdy". Trini's mom is briefly mentioned in "The Shortest Birthday" when Trini is seen talking to her via video chat on her laptop. We finally get to meet Trini's mom, whose name is Joy, in the one-hour special "Molly and the Great One" where it's revealed that she has been serving in the army for quite some time and hasn't had time to spend with her husband and daughter until the special when she takes a temporary leave to visit them in Qyah. | |

Meaningful Echo: In "Eagle Egg Hunt", Molly and Walter head to the Windsong Wildlife Area to fix an eagle cam. However, there are six cameras there, so they have to find out which one is the eagle cam. Along the way, they come across a bunch of caribou, but Molly is more concerned about the eagle cam. Walter tells her that "Watching nature on a laptop is one thing, but this is the real deal." Later, Molly comes across some cute foxes, but this time Walter is more concerned about the eagle cam, Molly tells him that "Watching nature on a laptop is one thing, but this is the real deal.", showing that she had learned her lesson. | |

Culture Clash: In the aptly titled "Culture Clash," Molly and Tooey meet Trini for the first time, who is from Texas. Wanting to make a good impression with her, both Molly and Tooey watch a movie about Texas and then dress up like cowboys to try and make her happy. Trini then shows them that Texas is not really like that. Later on, Trini assumes that there are polar bears everywhere in Alaska. At the library, she learns that this is not the case. | |

Idiot Ball: Grabbed by Molly, Tooey, Trini, and Oscar in "Tooth Or Consequences." Granted, Molly and company are young kids, and do have very active imaginations. But even kids should be smart enough to know that no licensed dentist would use a giant drill or even a jackhammer on a kid's teeth, or their butt would lose their medical license big time and most likely be arrested, if not sued for malpractice. Even so, the kids all believe the sensational video Molly's cousin that sent them, and it takes an actual dentist to set them straight. | |

Didn't Think This Through: In "A Splash Of Mink", Molly and Trini get sprayed by a mink. In order to figure out how to get the smell off, they consult the internet and find an article by an "expert" who claims that tomato juice gets rid of the smell. They don't bother to check if the article is reliable or not. Luckily, Grandpa Nat teaches them that tomato juice doesn't really get rid of bad smells. | |

Self-Serving Memory: In "Molly of the Yukon," this trope is Played for Laughs. Cliff wants to show Molly the place where he caught his first dinjik, but Nat say that's where he caught his first dinjik. The two of them have a good laugh about it. | |

Two Men, One Dress: In "Midnight Sun Fun Run," Molly and Tooey dress up as a moose together. Tooey is the head and Molly is the rear, and unlike most examples, Molly's head sticks out of the costume. However, Tooey can't see where he's going, so they decide to make the costume backwards. | |

She learns that the photographer didn't want the subjects to smile, and wanted to show them performing both traditional and every day tasks in full regalia, as that was the common public perception of Alaska Natives. | |

Extra-Long Episode | |

Extra-Long Episode: "Molly and the Great One" is the show's first 55-minute special. There are two plots, which eventually collide. Molly finds out about Walter Harper's expedition to the top of Denali, and wants Grandpa Nat to climb up there as well. An obnoxious reality TV outdoorsman, Mac McFadden, arrives in Qyah and is keen on climbing Denali as well, so Molly, Tooey, Kenji, Nat, Walter, Mac, and his assistant Andie all climb Denali together. Meanwhile, Trini's mom Joy comes home to Qyah after serving in the military. Trini shows her around and they have fun together until Joy reveals that soon she has to leave. The mountain climbers find out that a storm is approaching and decide not to make it to the summit, but foolish Mac goes it alone and is in danger. Joy uses her helicopter and rescues Mac and the others. Nat and Walter make it all the way to the top of Denali, and are lauded as heroes. "Wise Raven and Old Crow" is the second one. In it, Molly and her family go on a trip to the village of Old Crow so that they can honor the late Grandma Catherine. Meanwhile, Trini and Tooey take care of a baby moose they name Bonky. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
| Molly of Denali / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: In the first season, it's established that the nearest town to Qyah is Nenana, which is north of Denali National Park. The second season gives us maps of Qyah, showing that it's situated on the Kantishna River, which is indeed north of Denali National Park. Qyah is shown to be in between the Kantishna and Denali, meaning that it's on the south shore, and the river at that point flows west to east past Qyah (it meanders a lot). This contradicts season 1 episodes that showed the Kantishna flowing east to west. This error is not corrected for most of season 2, which still shows the Kantishna flowing the wrong way even after its actual direction has been established by maps. | |

Wax On, Wax Off: In "Have Canoe, Will Paddle", Connie tries to train the kids to use canoes by having them do planks, balance water balloons and lift watermelons covered with butter and the kids find it very strange. After realizing that she's actually an accomplished canoer, they begin to understand her methods more. The planking was for upper body strength, the water balloons were for core muscles, and the watermelon game taught them to balance in the canoe. | |

Broken Bird | |
| Molly of Denali / int_d08595d3 | comment |
Broken Bird: Grandpa Nat, in spades. As revealed in "Grandpa's Drum", as a child, he was separated from his family and friends and forced to attend boarding school, where he was subjected to extreme racism and was only allowed to sing English songs. Because of this, he decided to give away his drum to his childhood friend and to not sing anymore. Layla mentions that talking about it makes him very sad. Luckily, Molly and Tooey recover his drum and he starts singing again. | |

Ship Tease | |
| Molly of Denali / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: Molly and Tooey are best friends who hang out all the time, to the point where Tooey most likely spends more time with the Mabrays than his own family. However, Molly and Tooey are way closer than best friends probably should be. In "Grandpa's Drum", Molly and Tooey find a picture of Grandpa Nat and an unnamed girl when they were kids. They were shown to be very close, and Nat apparently trusted her enough to give his drum to her. The girl also speaks very fondly of him, recalling how he loved to sing, dance, and joke a lot. When Molly and Tooey sing and drum together, Nat starts seeing visions of himself and the girl when they were younger, doing the exact same thing. In "A Splash Of Mink", Vera and Jake, as well as Nat and Midge, are shown dancing together. | |

No Antagonist: Generally speaking, there are no antagonists or villains in the series, being that it's an educational Slice of Life series. However, there are some episodes where visitors to Alaska show ignorance about the state and Alaska Natives, but they always learn their lesson at the end. | |

Wintry Auroral Sky: In "Turn on the Northern Lights," the gang finally gets to see the northern lights at the end of the episode, and it is the series' greatest demonstration of Scenery Porn. In "Forget-You-Not," Trini wants to send a video of the Northern Lights to Joy. It's too cloudy for the Northern Lights to appear, but Trini decides to send a construction paper version of it instead. At the end of "Fire, Food, and Family," when the blizzard stops, Molly and Nat see the aurora borealis. | |

Greater Need Than Mine: In "Dream Tube", Auntie Midge wants the tube that the kids also want. When she discovers that Trini has an agate (and that the kids need $30 to buy the tube), she decides that since tubes come around every summer (and agates are rarer), that the kids deserve the tube more, so she buys the agate, meaning the kids now have enough money for the tube. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Downplayed in "Gold Strikeout." Molly, Tooey, and Trini want to take a lot of gold from the land so they can provide for their families. Molly was hesitant at first, as she knows that Grandpa Nat told her not to take too much stuff from the land, but was pressured into it by Tooey. Eventually, their sluice box ended up blocking the salmon from the creek, interfering with Nina's salmon counting project. | |

Innocently Insensitive: In "Culture Clash", Molly and Tooey try to make friends with Trini after accidentally getting on her bad side. After they find out that she's from Texas, they watch an old cowboy movie to get an idea of what Texas is like. Molly and Tooey then wear cowboy outfits and start speaking in stereotypical Southern accents, unaware that these are untrue Texas stereotypes. Trini then shows them that Texas is not really like that. Later, Molly and Tooey get a taste of their own medicine when Trini assumes that there are polar bears everywhere in Alaska. A trip to the library helps clear things up. | |
