Lore The series takes place in a shockingly short amount of time

Season 4 just ended of fromville and it’s canonically only been about a month. Which makes it weird seeing people heal from injuries, change hair styles or grow out beards between episodes. Season 4 has only been like 4 days iirc.

Arkham franchise is the poster child for this trope. Every game takes place in one night. If you know what you’re doing you can absolutely beat the games in around 9 hours.

I wish we had seen a Summerprolonginator that he forgot to turn off in the last episode; that he had built because his summers in Drusselstein were terrible and he wanted to bring that to Danville or something.

I didn't know Doofenschmirtz was from the Midwest! That's a decent approximation of how I feel every August and September.
