Jeffy's Tantrum!

"Jeffy's Tantrum!" is the 23rd webisode of the ninth season of SuperMarioLogan. After a massive incident which culminated in the demonetization of SML, the webisode was privatized, though it has been reuploaded by fans.

Summary
Jeffy wants Mario's credit card number so he can buy a $2.99 SpongeBob app on the iPad, but Mario already bought Jeffy an app last week. Jeffy freaks out and insists that he's bored of the app that Mario bought for him last week and demands Mario for the SpongeBob app. This results in a fight in which they both repeat themselves. Finally, Jeffy threatens to run away from home if Mario doesn't buy him the game, in which Jeffy does.

Suddenly, the doorbell rings and Mario answers it to find Jeffy wearing a typical glasses and mustache disguise, inquiring Mario to purchase the app, but Mario believes it's him. Suddenly, Jeffy shows up behind Mario, revealing that the Jeffy at the door wasn't the real Jeffy.

The real Jeffy resumes the fight with Mario and demands the app. Mario asks why Jeffy didn't run away like he said. Jeffy says he can't run away without the app, and threatens to hold his breath until he dies if he doesn't get the game. He attempts to do so, but ends up breathing in the end. When Mario finally yells at Jeffy that he's not buying the game, Jeffy begins crying which turns into a scream of rage.

As Mario walks away in annoyance, Jeffy continues to freak out and throws the couch off the balcony in a fit of rage, saying that he will keep throwing stuff until he gets the game. The final straw is when he throws Mario's TV off the balcony. This is Mario's breaking point. Mario gets very angry and yells at Jeffy that he is so done. Jeffy asks if he can buy the game now with Mario responding that he is about to get something before seemingly whipping Jeffy with a belt.

Two weeks later, Jeffy is traumatized and is dressed like emo. He wants to cut himself, but is stopped by Mario by saying what kind of do to make him stop acting like this, so before Jeffy can hang himself, Junior shows up and offers him an $10 iTunes card that Jeffy can use to buy the app himself.

As Jeffy leaves with the card, Junior decides to play with the noose, implying that he may have hung himself to death. Meanwhile, Mario has now "replaced" the couch and Jeffy breaks the news to him about the card. However, Jeffy is met with the news that Mario sold Jeffy's iPad to buy the new couch. The episode ends with Jeffy dropping the iTunes card and yelling to Mario and the whole world: "ARE YOU F***ING HIGH?!?!?!".

Why It Makes You Throw A Tantrum

 * 1) This video contains the scene that single-handedly kickstarted Logan's issues with Youtube; namely the infamous scene where Jeffy nearly hangs himself over a 3 dollar app store game. Because of this, a kid attempted to copy a scene from the video, causing legal trouble and eventually reaching the news (see the Controversy section below for further information).
 * 2) *The controversial nature of the scene isn't helped by the fact that at the end of the scene, Junior does accidentally hang himself on the same noose.
 * 3) Even ignoring the scene in question, the rest of the short is just Jeffy throwing a big tantrum over a $3 game on the App Store, when he could have just played something else for free instead.
 * 4) On the other hand, Mario is shown to be quite a cheapskate in the episode as he refuses to buy a $3 game, he claims that he doesn't want to buy it because it "costs money" and he already bought Jeffy a game last week which is a rather dumb reason to not buy a game, and even though Mario is shown to be quite a poor person, it's still rather cheap of him to claim that it "costs too much" when it's actually quite a cheap price.
 * 5) The titular tantrum that Jeffy throws is very unrealistic:
 * 6) He throws Mario's red couch and his flat screen TV off the balcony. despite the weight of both the couch and the TV so how the heck is he even powerful enough to grab a TV and couch and throw them off that balcony?
 * 7) He randomly gets depressed because of Mario not buying him the game, he even tries to slice his wrist, and attempts to hang himself, and all of this was because he couldn't get a game.
 * 8) Although Jeffy is very unlikeable here, Mario isn't any better either, as he acts extremely dumb at times during the episode:
 * 9) He attacks Jeffy with a belt in one scene, although he had his right reasons to do it as Jeffy threw a television and couch off the balcony, it was still not a good thing for him to do that because that is basically child abuse.
 * 10) He sells Jeffy's iPad just so he could buy a new couch, despite the fact that the old one was still in good condition, even after it fell from the balcony.
 * 11) This video suffers from many plot-holes:
 * 12) Jeffy tells Mario that he is leaving, but an exact twin of Jeffy asks Mario if he would buy him the game but the real Jeffy is inside the house.
 * 13) When Jeffy got the iTunes card, Mario sold his iPad to get a new flat-screen television and a new red couch, despite the couch be still being fine after the fall, as mentioned earlier.
 * 14) The video does not have any form of warning at the front in spite of the asformentioned attempted hanging scene. This could easily have circumvented the entire controversy on it's own.
 * 15) Overall, this episode not only got Logan demonetized and also not only caused controversy, but also started the downfall of the whole series and hasn't recovered ever since.
 * 16) Bad Ending: Mario sells jeffy's iPad to buy a new couch despite the old couch still being fine even after it fell, causing Jeffy to scream, "ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH!!" all over the globe.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Some scenes in this episode were funny:
 * 2) Depending on your view, the ending is pretty funny.
 * 3) Jeffy's line "Christmas? It's March, bitch!" was also quite funny.
 * 4) If you're able to ignore the controversy and damage the hanging scene caused to Logan's career, the entire scene can be considered darkly funny due to it's outlandish nature, especially after Junior enters the scene.
 * 5) *The line "'Cause my daddy wouldn't buy me a 2.99 game from the App Store" in particular stands out.
 * 6) Bowser Junior is at least likeable in this video, mainly due to the fact he saves the situation by giving Jeffy a 10 dollar gift card for the App Store.

Controversy
In December 2017, a seven-year-old child from England actually attempted to hang himself the way Jeffy almost did in this video. The mother discovered her son and that he was inspired by SuperMarioLogan, so she banned him from watching it. She then reported it to British tabloid newspaper mh:rottenwebsites:The Sun.

Despite Logan Thirtyacre apologizing about this incident, stating that the content in his videos is not to be imitated, on December 12, YouTube started demonetizing and age-restricting most of his videos, even the ones without inappropriate content, then began striking a few other videos before eventually demonetizing the entire channel, thus forcing Thirtyacre to move his main activity to SuperLuigiLogan. Enraged fans of the series criticized the mother for not monitoring her child's Internet activity, not properly teaching her son to not imitate content seen on the Internet, and then blaming Thirtyacre to preserve her inflated ego; they also criticized YouTube for associating SML with mh:rottenwebsites:Elsagate, even though SML was never meant for kids to watch in the first place. Then the same 7 year old started a petition via change.org to put advertisements on SML again then it went viral all of a sudden YouTube took down the petition for defending the YouTube guidelines.

In response to this controversy, Logan privatized the video from his main channel, which means that reuploads are currently the only method that can be used to watch the SML Short. Logan also created "mh:bettersmlvideohistory:Jeffy Plays Minecraft", which is based on this incident.
