Well it might have been all sugar free candy.

Like taranchula said, maybe everyone is familiar with Mac's sugar thing and gives him only sugar-free candy. I mean, if Mac's gotten that crazy before, somebody must have noticed it.

Given how Mac responds to sugar I'm surprised that Terrence doesn't try to force him to eat candy.

Mr. Marshmallow · 11-02-2006, 02:56 PM

Actually I don't think Terrance would ever dare give Mac sugar. He's stupid as hell but he's not dumb enough to actually make Mac go crazy, he knows that Mac would probably tear up the house or something and he'd get blamed for it.

Mac knows to not take sugar, so if he somehow gets some it was probably forced and Mac's Mom would know Terrance gave it to him. It's funny but aside from the party episode, Mac's sugar problem has never really shown up again.

Kzinistzerg · 11-02-2006, 04:18 PM

Actually, they referenced it in I Only Have Suprise for You, when Mac's explaining why he dosn't like parties to Mr. Herriman. He says something like,
Herriman: "this wouldn't have anything to do with sugar, would it?"
And mac explains that it's actualyl because he ends up getting humiliated instead.

Man, Mac's sugar high is not going to go over well when he has to explain that AND bloo to his girlfirend, when he gets one, hehe...

And you're right, I think terrence knows that even though terrence is much stonger than Mac, mac is much smarter and at some point in the future will be easily capable of getting terrence back for what he does- and will, if Terrence pushes him enough. After all, terrence hasn't told Mac's mom about Fosters (well, he did in the credits of Infernal Slumber but wasn't believed).

Sugar is something that Mac's mom will knows mac didn't do himself. Mac knows what happes when he eats sugar; the only reason he went nuts in "Partying..." was becuase he slammed into the guy with the punch which was super-saturated with sugar.

Mr. Marshmallow · 11-02-2006, 06:09 PM

Ah makes sense, I have been trying to FORGET that episode "Surprise" due to the overwhelming Mac bashing, much like "Imposter's" for Frankie. While this one isn't as brutal a lashing as Frankie's episode was, it still leaves Mac looking pretty bad.

Terrance can't really rat out Mac now that his credibility has gone down the toilet after "Infernal Slumber". Their mom won't believe him and plus, Terrance seems to enjoy beating on Mac at home rather then thinking up plans to ruin his thing with Foster's.

He's too stupid to even know a plan when he has one (remember his thought baloons in "Seeing Red")?. Although, I too hope Mac gets some payback on Terrance through his own ways. Mac's a good kid and he gets put through a lot of grief on the show sometimes.

See, while "Surprise" bothered me quite a bit, it somehow didn't bother me as much as "Foster's Goes to Europe" did in regards to how Mac was treated (well, at least until the end; I think the LAST thing Bloo had Mac do was a bit much). Also, I agree that Frankie's lashing was a lot more brutal and, though I like Frankie, I feel worse for Mac, partially, again, because I believe he got lashed not once like Frankie has, but twice, once in "Foster's Goes to Europe" and again in "I Only Have Surprise for You". Actually, make it three times; I forgot "Camp Keep A Good Mac Down".

And while I'd like to see Terrence get his come-uppance from Mac, I kind of doubt it will ever happen. This is primarily due to the fact of how good natured Mac is that he himself wouldn't really go for it. Of course, this isn't necessarily true, considering we've seen him snap before (again, in "Surprise"), but I think there are a few different factors at work here. One is that it would almost certainly have to occur in the apartment, considering Terrence never seems to leave. Granted, while Terrence's reliability is basically null and void in his mother's eyes at this point, I'm afraid that if there was an episode where Mac tried, he would somehow end up getting caught and in trouble.

Moving on, I haven't said my position on Mac.

Favorite character.

Voxxyn · 11-05-2006, 08:28 AM

Putting aside my personal feelings on Frankie, I very much understand why you'd feel worse for Mac. Frankie is an adult, and a very strong and responsible one at that. Mac may be mature for his age, but he's still a child, he's very decent and well-meaning, and he didn't AT ALL deserve to go through what he did in episodes like FGTE and IOHSFY.

I guess that's why I'm really hoping "Emancipation Complication" next week isn't a disappointment. Both Mac and Frankie have earned the right to shine after all the abuse they're put through.

At least Terrence was blamed for the gaping whole in the roof from Infernal Slumber, right?
