Enemy Mime

"Hmmmm, What do we have here? It's a mysterious thing I've ever seen"

"Enemy Mime" is the 8th episode of the first season of Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart, and the 8th episode overall.

Synopsis
When the Sheriff’s Department fights a monster that copies their every move, they’ll have to find a way to fight without fighting!

Plot
A strange, peculiar blob awakens when one of the citizen steps on a puddle it was hiding under. Back at the headquarters, Adorabat is performing a magic show for Mao Mao and Badgerclops, who distribute absolutely no interest whatsoever. The Monster Alarm sounds, and the department goes to investigate. The sheriff notices that it seems to be copying every person's moves. Mao Mao engages in a battle; he thinks he defeats it, but the blob consumes him.

Badgerclops decides to use charm to get the blob to release Mao Mao, calling the blob a "gentleman" and straight up acting like a bard. He is mad when Mao Mao can't respect Badger's methods.

Badgerclops and the blob begin to hang out, being best buddies. However, as a result, the blob consumes the entire kingdom. Badgerclops dances with his gentleman over to the lake to make him disintegrate, but the blob consumes Badgerclops and all the water.

Adorabat performs her magic show in front of the blob. The blob copies her every move, freeing the citizens and blows up entirely. Mao Mao and Badgerclops congratulate Adorabat for not only freeing the entire kingdom and destroying the blob, but for also performing great magic tricks. She earns a pat on the head from Mao Mao.

Trivia

 * The name of the episode is a reference to the classic act of a mime where it imitated the movement of a member of the audience, similar to the blob does in this episode.
 * This episode reveals that Badgerclops has an older step-brother named Gerald, who used to perform magic tricks to steal his ice cream money.
 * In the childhood picture of Badgerclops and Gerald, Badgerclops is wearing an eye patch, suggesting that he lost his eye at a young age.
 * In the same picture, he still has both arms, meaning that he lost it sometime between when he was a child and when he joined the Thicket Thieves.

Errors

 * Despite numerous Sweetypies being taken out of the blob during Adorabat's magic show, some of them reappear back in the blob when it implodes.
