'''Bake Sale'''

Mrs. Hillary is having a bake sale fundraiser for the school's music program, and Manny stops by the school to help her set it up. Mr. Lopart, for reasons only knows to him, also shows up- and accidentally wrecks both a table and most of the bake sale's food.

!!"Bake Sale" provides instances of:
* ContinuityNod:
** The flagpole Manny installed in [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E10 "Amigo Grande"]] is still standing in front of the school.
** When Manny arrives at her bakery, Mrs. Portillo is seen to have just finished up an interview with [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E20 Jasmine Chang]].
** As an apology for destroying a table and ruining some of the bake sale food, Mr. Lopart gives Mrs. Hillary the same kind of cupcakes (pineapple with strawberry frosting and rainbow sprinkles) his mother made for him in [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E21 "Mr. Lopart's Mother"]].
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: After Pat knocks down the chain of dominos the tools were building at the beginning of the episode, Fixit can be seen picking up one of the dominoes in the background while Manny and the tools talk.
* MondegreenGag: When the tools are agreeing to help Mrs. Portillo make various treats for the school's bake sale.
-->'''Manny''': And Pat can help me make sopapillas.\\
'''Pat''': Uh, Manny, I don't think soap is a very good dessert.
* RunningGag: Rusty really, really wanting to eat banana muffins.

'''Camping Tools'''

Manny receives a call from the Lee family- Kevin and Steven are going to go camping with their friends, but the Lees' garage door is stuck and all their camping stuck is in the garage. While fixing the door, Manny notices how upset Nelson is about not being able to go camping with his older brothers- and decides to do something about it.

!!Tropes in "Camping Tools" include:
* CallBack: [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E3 Once again]], Nelson is upset about being too small and young (this time, because he's too young to go on a camping trip with his brothers Kevin and Steven).
* CampingEpisode: Well, sort of. Kevin and Steven Lee are going camping with their friends, but Nelson is too young to go and upset about this. Manny (after fixing the Lees' stuck garage door, which is what he was there to do in the first place) ends up cheering Nelson up by setting up a campsite for him in his backyard, where he can "camp" with his mother for the night.
* ContinuityNod:
** The flashlight Manny used in [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E20 "Cinco de Mayo"]] makes its last appearance in the series, as Manny needs it to illuminate the inside of the Lees' garage.
** At one point, Mr. Lopart reaches for the manual for his radio, and accidentally grabs a [[Recap/HandyMannyS1E9 Supremoguy comic book]] instead.
* FurryConfusion:
** Manny's flashlight will retroactively become an example of this with the introduction of Flicker in [[Recap/HandyMannyS2E24 the very next episode]].
** An inanimate hammer and set of wrenches are hanging on the wall in the Lees' garage.
* TheGhost: Joanna and Sean, friends of Kevin and Steven who they're going on a camping trip, are mentioned a few times (and are apparently in a car that pulls up in front of the Lees' home) but never actually appear.
* GratuitousSpanish: In addition to the show's usual sources, Kelly produces some due to trying to learn Spanish with flashcards.
* ICantHearYou: This happens when Manny enters Mr. Lopart's store when the latter has some EXTREMELY loud music playing on his radio.
-->'''Manny''': Why is the music so loud?\\
'''Mr. Lopart''': What's that, Manny? I can't hear you, the music is really, really loud.\\
'''Stretch''': Why don't you turn it off?\\
'''Mr. Lopart''': Did I cough? No, I don't think so. I'm trying to turn off my radio, I think it's stuck!
* IveHeardOfThatWhatIsIt: Pat does this with Manny's "starmap" (a dark blue piece of paper he cut star-shaped holes in).
-->'''Pat''': Ooh, a starmap! ''[[{{Beat}} (beat)]]'' What's a starmap?
* PanUpToTheSkyEnding: At the end of the episode, the camera pans from an aerial shot of Nelson's backyard campsite up to a view of the star-studded sky.
