Bonnie & Neddy / Varmints is the first episode of the ninth and final season of the animated television series, Adventure Time. The episode originally aired on April 21, 2017, and was directed by Elizabeth Ito and Cole Sanchez and written by Graham Falk. As with many episodes of Adventure Time, this one features two separate storylines, which are presented one after the other.

The first storyline, Bonnie & Neddy, focuses on Princess Bubblegum and her relationship with her younger brother, Neddy. Fans of the show may remember that Neddy is a slime elemental that Princess Bubblegum created in order to have a companion when she was first created. In this episode, Neddy has grown much larger than he used to be and has become difficult to control. Princess Bubblegum takes Finn and Jake with her into the center of the Candy Kingdom so that she can talk to Neddy and try to figure out what's been bothering him.

As Princess Bubblegum and the gang make their way through the center of the kingdom, they are attacked by a group of slime monsters that seem to be working together in a way that is unusual for them. They soon discover that the reason for this is that the slime monsters have been united by a common cause. Princess Bubblegum and her friends eventually make their way to Neddy, and they discover that he has been upset because he is not being treated as an individual. Instead, he has been seen as just another part of the Candy Kingdom, and this has caused him to feel isolated and alone.

Princess Bubblegum promises Neddy that she will find a way to help him feel more like an individual, and she sets to work on a plan. Meanwhile, Finn and Jake are tasked with protecting the Candy Kingdom from the newly united group of slime monsters. The action in this part of the episode is exciting and fast-paced, with Finn and Jake fighting off the monsters and coming up with clever strategies to outsmart them.

The second storyline of the episode, Varmints, follows Princess Bubblegum as she continues her work on her plan to help Neddy feel more like himself. In this episode, she tries to enlist the help of Marceline, who has been living in the Candy Kingdom for some time now. However, when Princess Bubblegum goes to Marceline's house to ask for her assistance, she finds that Marceline has turned the place into a mess.

As Princess Bubblegum tries to clean up the house, she discovers that Marceline has become distant and doesn't seem to want to help. She soon realizes that it's because Marceline is struggling with her own issues. Marceline has been having nightmares about her past, and these nightmares have been causing her to behave erratically.

As the two grapple with their own issues, they eventually come to a better understanding of each other. Princess Bubblegum comes up with a plan to help Marceline deal with her nightmares, and in return, Marceline agrees to help Princess Bubblegum with Neddy. The two team up to create a new home for Neddy that is more in line with his own desires and needs.

Overall, Bonnie & Neddy / Varmints is an excellent start to the final season of Adventure Time. It features all of the wit, humor, and heart that fans have come to expect from the show, along with some genuinely emotional moments that will really resonate with audiences. While it's sad to see the series come to a close, this episode proves that the creative team behind Adventure Time is determined to give it the sendoff that it deserves.
