And it’s not Tree Trunks, or Choose Goose, or Joshua, Margaret, Jerome, Ghost Princess, Maja-or any other secondary character from the show’s extensive catalog. This time, he’s a deadworlds orientation counselor, of course. Fox (voiced by Tom Herpich), who reprises his delightful role as “just some guy,” always stumbling into the craziest situations by sheer dumb luck. It’s not Tiffany Oiler (voiced by Aryan Simhadri), who’s died so many times by now that it’s honestly unsurprising he’s employed as an undertaker in the afterlife. It’s a neat trick by the animators to convey the emotion this way. Tracking the history of Tiffany in “Adventure Time” canon is difficult, evidenced by Finn’s confusing mix of reactions to meeting him again in the deadworlds.

Something-or someone-is undeniably missing. Yet, even after Finn wakes from this hallucination and finds himself in a sort of transitional purgatory on his way to one of the fifty deadworlds, something about his death feels unearned. Everything we loved to cringe about in the early episodes. There’s even a painful line of autotune and a rushed “lesson learned” moment in which Finn states out loud to himself an appropriately preschool-level aphorism. Before comprehending his death, he finds himself momentarily trapped in an uncanny hallucinatory sequence of mathematics-related slang and classic Ice-King-and-ice-cream adventures with his best bro Jake. In “Together Again,” that day has come for the brothers, and the realization confronts us just as it confronts Finn. With all these victories under their belts, it may have seemed like Finn and Jake were immortal, but every dog (and human) has his day. In the eight-year run of their show, Finn the Human Mertens and Jake the Dog (voiced by Jeremy Shada and John DiMaggio, respectively) battled evil wizards, demons, vampires, other humans and even the god of chaos himself. Honestly, it was bound to happen eventually. That’s not really a spoiler though we find out that both members of our favorite adventuring duo have kicked the bucket not five minutes into the latest hour-long special from the “Adventure Time” epilogue series “Distant Lands.” “Finn and Jake are dead,” the screen reads. “Wait! Stop! Spoilers!” you’re probably thinking.
