"Dream of Love" is the fourth episode of the fourth season of the American animated television series ''Adventure Time''. The episode was written and storyboarded by Bert Youn and Somvilay Xayaphone, from a story by Patrick McHale, Kent Osborne, and Pendleton Ward. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on April 23, 2012. The episode guest stars Ron Lynch as Mr. Pig. 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, Tree Trunks (voiced by Polly Lou Livingston) is courted by Mr. Pig, but their over-expressive love begins to make many people uncomfortable. The two are separated, but due to the power of their love, they are allowed to be reunited. The episode contains the eponymous song, which was crafted by McHale to be reminiscent of a duet between Dolly Parton and Meat Loaf. Together with other episodes of Cartoon Network programming, the episodes helped make the network the number one television destination for boys aged 2–11, 6-11, and 9-14 on Monday nights. The episode received mixed critical reviews; Oliver Sava of ''The A.V. Club'' felt that the episode was juvenile, whereas Mike Lechevaillier of ''Slate'' magazine praised the installment for its original yet resounding presentation of the nature of relationships. ==Plot== Finn and Jake venture to Tree Trunks’s (voiced by Polly Lou Livingston) house to acquire apple pie. While there, they discover that Tree Trunks has entered into a relationship with Mr. Pig (voiced by Ron Lynch). Finn asks Tree Trunks if she would be willing to make apple pie for Princess Bubblegum’s musical concert, to which she agrees. Later at the concert, however, Tree Trunks and Mr. Pig arrive, sans apple pie. The two begin to passionately kiss, which makes the entire audience feel uncomfortable. The two are told to stop showing public displays of affection, but they fail miserably. As a last-ditch effort, the two are separated from one another. Distressed, both perform the song “Dream of Love”, which details the sadness they feel about being separated from one another. The song is so moving that both Finn and Jake concede, allowing Tree Trunks and Mr. Pig to be reunited. Their relationship, however, still manages to disgust people, although Finn and Jake are beyond the point of worrying. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dream of Love (Adventure Time)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
