Dream Job is an episode of the Happy Tree Friends Internet series, the ninth of Season 4 and 87th overall.
Plot
Sniffles has built a dream helmet connected to a TV, and he places the helmet on his head and promptly goes to sleep. Displayed on the TV, Sniffles' dream appears to be him peacefully relaxing on a hammock at a tropical island. All of a sudden, Lumpy, who is cleaning Sniffles' house, suddenly arrives, finds the remote, and decides to watch TV, unaware that Sniffles' helmet was wired to it.
Lumpy changes the channel, bringing Sniffles to the Old West where he is impaled by three arrows. The channel changes again to bring Sniffles under the sea. Then Sniffles is brought into outer space, where he is frozen and a speeding comet smashes him to bits.
Unsatisfied with the "shows", Lumpy clicks the remote again. Sniffles is shown alive again, with a tray of cookies and he proceeds to put them in an oven. However, the channel is flipped and he quickly ends up in a guillotine to be decapitated. Next, he is put on a game show and spins a wheel, but the channel changes yet again so he only ends up detonating a bomb. Sniffles then winds up in a war zone and gets smashed by a large door.
Now, Sniffles finds himself swinging from a vine, but then abruptly smashes into a tree, penetrating a stick through his heart. Then, he is shown completely tied up with rope and being roasted on a spit over a bonfire. He is then impaled by a metal pipe. After that, Giggles gives him a massage until his bed inexplicably closes on him.
As Lumpy keeps clicking the remote, he overpowers the TV. He finally leaves, and Sniffles has become mentally paralyzed. The next day at the hospital, Petunia brings him to watch TV, which shows the island from the beginning of last night's program, worrying Sniffles.
Moral
"Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today."
Deaths
- Sniffles' deaths in the TV:
- Frozen and smashed into bits by a comet.
- Decapitated by a guillotine operated by Flippy.
- Killed in an explosion.
- Crushed by a large door.
- Impaled on a tree branch.
- Skewered on wood.
- Impaled in the head by a pipe.
Injuries
- Sniffles' injuries on the TV:
- Stabbed by some arrows.
- Broke his bones when the massage bed closes on him
- Sniffles (back in reality) is driven mentally unstable.
Goofs
- Despite Lumpy being listed as a featuring character, his title card is his starring page.
- Flippy had no pupils under his mask. However, it could have been due to him wearing the mask preventing his eyes from being visible.
- When Sniffles spins the wheel, his hands are layered under it.
- Sniffles is missing his pocket protector when he spins the wheel/detonates the bomb.
- In his appearance, Flippy doesn't have his dog tags.
Trivia
- This is Sniffles' third episode in a row that he survives (along with Spare Tire and Camp Pokeneyeout).
- Due to the fact that all of the deaths in this episode are in Sniffles' dream, this is one of the few episodes without actual deaths.
- This is the first episode where Flippy doesn't have his beret. This is also the first episode where Disco Bear has another haircut other than is afro.
- This is the first Internet Season 4 episode where no one dies.
- This marks the second starring role Sniffles survives in after Blast From The Past. However, this is his first internet episode he survives and stars in.
- This is one of the few times Flippy doesn't flip out and also one of the few times he appears in an episode that doesn't revolve around him.
- This is also the first episode that Flippy appears in and no one actually dies (since he only appears in a dream).
- This is the first Internet Season 4 episode where Disco Bear survives. Also, it's the third internet episode where he survives.
- Lumpy, Petunia, and of course Sniffles are the only characters that appear in real life in the episode, while Disco Bear, Flippy, and Giggles appear in the dream segments only.
- This is the fourth time a character is seen dreaming. The others are Flippy in Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow and in Double Whammy Part 1 and Nutty in Dunce Upon a Time. This makes Sniffles as the third character whose dreams are shown.
- This is one of the few episodes where Lumpy doesn't kill anyone (at least in reality).
- Since the episode Out on a Limb, this is the first internet episode where nobody actually dies.
- Truffles is seen behind a tree during Sniffles' vine-swinging death.
- This is one of the few episodes when a character dies more than one time.
- Flippy and Disco Bear are out of character. Flippy, who is known to be good and happy, kills Sniffles without flipping out. Disco Bear, who is known to be cool and funky, is calm and doesn't care about Sniffles dying. This is probably due to the fact that it was a dream.
- This scene represented a public execution with Disco Bear as a king/judge and Flippy as the executioner. Despite the possible medieval setting, they are in their normal outfits.
- This is one of the few episodes where characters become out of character.
- Sniffles' death in space is similar to one of Cuddles' deaths in Blast from the Past, which also starred Sniffles.
- The game show Sniffles was on looked similar to The Price is Right.
- The way Sniffles was swinging on a vine and crashing onto a tree is similar to George of the Jungle.
- This seems to be the last Happy Tree Friends episode so far.
