Everyone on the Octopod has tricked someone into something whether it was for their own good or they were doing it for fun.

The Captain has tricked Kwazii into taking a bath before by telling him there was a Scumlicking Blowfin in the bathtub (a monster the Captain made up on the spot), so Kwazii ran and jumped into the bathtub to "fight the monster". Then the Captain filled the bathtub with water while Kwazii fought with the shampoo bottle and gave him a bath with Peso's help.

To this day Kwazii believes he defeated a monster in the bathtub and Tweak doesn't know whether to consider it cute or pathetic.

The Captain's been tricked into thinking everyone loves his accordion because all of them are too nice to say anything but whenever the Captain pulls out his accordion, its possible to see everyone cringe for a fleeting moment whenever the accordion squeaks.

Peso has tricked the kids into taking medication by mixing it in with something the kids are willing to eat or drink such as a kelp cake or milk. (He's not giving them juice or soda because it's bad for them)

The Vegimals had attempted to pull a trick on Shellington once when all of them pointed out the window and told Shellington that there was a butterfly outside the window, now any normal person would just look out the window to see, but Shellington went a little overboard, thinking the Vegimals just found a new species, and the Vegimals weren't even able to tell him that they pulled a trick on him before he ran into the Launch Bay, stole the Gup D, and drove in circles all day looking for a nonexistent new species. Tweak considers it a miracle that he didn't crash and the baby Vegimals felt so bad that they all gave Shellington hugs and gave him a shell they found while looking for him and told him they were sorry.
