rdf:langString "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 Cartoon Network programming, "Dream of Love" helped the network rank as 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 and effective presentation of the nature of relationships.
