Something is Missing!

This article's missing a plot section. You can help by adding one!

Not counting the opening, the only characters in this episode are Molly, Binky, Rattles, and Slink.
- This is the first episode to feature just the Tough Consumers.
As shown in the gallery the rough storyboard says this episode was produced in 11-26-2015.
Karma: Molly was excluded because she didn't say "sorry".
4th wall break: The name "Tolon" is seen on a ball on "The Backyard Survivor." Tolon is the name of Marc Brown's son.
Running Gag: Molly not saying "sorry", then at the end, saying it too much.
Moral: Dont prevent yourself from saying "sorry" for your own benefits.
Timeline:
- Binky is unable to eat the trail mix because of his allergy to nuts. His nut allergy is revealed in "Binky Goes Nuts," and it is mentioned again in "Too Much of a Good Thing."
- Although the premise of this episode is that Molly has never said "sorry" to anyone, she does provide a written apology to many of her friends in "The Last Tough Customer." Maybe this episode takes place before said episode.

On "The Backyard Survivor," a volleyball with a face is shown. This is a reference to Wilson from Cast Away.
Rattles mentions "a cave in Mexico where snakes hang from the ceiling and eat bats." Such a cave does exist in real life, being the Cave of the Hanging Snakes. The snakes in question are yellow-red rat snakes.
