"Something Big" is the tenth episode of the sixth season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. The episode was written and storyboarded by Jesse Moynihan, from a story by Kent Osborne, Pendleton Ward, Moynihan, Jack Pendarvis, and Adam Muto. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on July 3, 2014. The episode guest stars Jill Talley, Alan Oppenheimer, Keith Ferguson, and Steve Agee.
The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, Maja the Sky Witch (voiced by Talley) summons Darren (voiced by Oppenheimer) and orders him to attack the Candy Kingdom. Finn brings in his Ancient Psychic Tandem War Elephant (voiced by Agee) to fight back. After defeating Maja and Darren, Finn decides that he cannot give orders to the Elephant anymore and decides to let him roam freely which he does. He eventually decides to help Maja recover from the coma he put her in.
The episode, the first to be boarded entirely by Moynihan himself, was partly based on a scrapped Adventure Time television movie that was going to air in the middle of the fifth season. The death of Root Beer Guy was added on behest of Pendarvis, the voice of the character. The episode itself was seen by 1.948 million viewers and received largely positive reviews from critics with an online review courtesy of Entertainment Weekly arguing it was an example of the superiority of Adventure Time when compared to other television series.
