Super Rubber Bubble Bubble Gum is an item featured in Freddi Fish 4: The Case of the Hogfish Rustlers of Briny Gulch. It can be purchased from Gill Barker for two Purple Sea Urchins. If the gum is being chewed by the Hogfish, it is one of the pieces of evidence that show if Gill Barker is Mr. Big and the mastermind behind the rustling.
Use[]
Gum can be used to feed to the shark guarding the area before the cave with the sea stars to keep it busy for a while so Freddi and Luther can get past.
Taste/reactions[]
Freddi and Luther have their opinions on what the gum tastes like, though both of them say it tastes like rubber. The gum can also be offered to other fish, and they all give their reasons as to why they don't want it. This might explain why Gill Barker was having a difficult time selling it.
Trivia[]
- In the path of the game without the Shark, it's still possible to purchase the Gum, but not required for beating the game. If Freddi and Luther do purchase it, it'll remain in their inventory for the rest of the game, since it cannot be used for anything else.
- The gum has been vulcanised so that it lasts a longer time. If you give Gill Barker pepper, cayenne or lemongrass, he will say that not only Super Rubber Bubble bubble gum is the finest tasting gum there is, but spices interfere with the vulcanising process.
- According to Freddi when you offer the gum to Apricot, Orchid or Periwinkle, the label says it's Licorice.
- The reasons for why the other characters don't want gum when offered are:
- Calico Catfish: Too worried to chew gum
- Nelson Torso: It's not Wiggly's Plankton Mint
- Apricot, Orchid and Periwinkle: The label says 'Licorice'
- Eight Finger Phil: It's not Bubble Bomb Chewy Coral flavor
- Saltwater Stella: She has a bum tooth. (presumably from all the soda she drank)
- Hammerhead and Sawfish: It's not coffee flavored
- Gill Barker: Doesn't touch it
- Puffer: Can't chew gum as it gives him hives
- Sahara Slim: Doesn't want to spoil his dinner
- Fluke: A whole packet isn't even enough for one piece of whale sized gum. (which weighs 30lb)
- U: He's in a hurry
- Elmer: It's not on Elmer's special diet and it's not good for seahorses
- Attempting to use the gum on the mail wagon wheel would result in Luther suggesting to stick the wheel back on with some gum but Freddi says that while it's good thinking, it wouldn't stay on for very long.
- Attempting to use the gum on the hat in Fluke's teeth would result in Freddi saying 'I wouldn't want to get it stuck even worse. We need some dental floss or something'.
- Apricot, Orchid and Periwinkle like Super Rubber Bubble Bubble Gum as it helps kill the taste of ink, which is why they ordered almost all of Gill Barker's stock. (except when Gill is Mr. Big)
