Episode notes
Huge Cake Projects And Delivery Disasters
- Paul F. Tompkins (as Cake Boss) recounts making elaborate themed cakes like a 400-pound Wrigley Field replica for clients and teams.
- He describes deliveries, timing errors, and a story where a large cake sat in the sun and was thrown away, illustrating the pressures of his work.
Cake Scarab Powers Explain Show Callbacks
- Paul (Cake Boss) explains his supernatural origin story: a cake scarab bite gave him second sight to communicate with the dead.
- This ties fictional callbacks on the show to repeated comedic beats about canon and possession.
Canon Changes Create Comic Uncertainty
- The episode plays with 'canon' by noting Disney's reboot made many Expanded Universe stories non-canonical.
- That shift creates comedic tension when Cake Boss's past séance with Chewbacca may no longer 'count'.
