Jermaine (Adventure Time)

"Jermaine" is the thirty-third episode of the sixth season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. In this episode, Finn and Jake are determined to reconnect with their reclusive brother, Jermaine, after Jake dreams of an encounter with him. It was written by Brandon Graham and Jesse Moynihan, who also served as storyboard artists. The episode is the first in the series to have Graham, known for his commercial and personal works in comics, as a writer and an artist.

Graham reflected on his enjoyment of producing the episode, explaining that he wrote the beginning and end parts while Moynihan filled in the middle. A show driven by its artists, Graham found that working on Adventure Time left a lasting impression on the way he writes comics—most notably, his Multiple Warheads strip. Aired originally on April 23, 2015, on Cartoon Network, over a million and a half viewers watched the episode, including Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club, who gave the episode an A grade in his review for the website.

Tears

Tearing (/ˈtiərɪŋ/), lacrimation, or lachrymation, (from Latin lacrima, meaning "tear") is the secretion of tears, which often serves to clean and lubricate the eyes in response to an irritation of the eyes. Tears formed through crying are associated with strong internal emotions, such as sorrow, elation, emotion, love, awe or pleasure. Laughing or yawning may also lead to the production of tears.

Physiology

In humans, the tear film coating the eye, known as the precorneal film, has three distinct layers, from the most outer surface:

Having a thin tear film may prevent one's ability to wear contact lenses, as the amount of oxygen needed is higher than normal, and contact lenses stop oxygen from entering the eye. Eyes with thin tear film will dry out while wearing contact lenses. Special eye drops are available for contact lens wearers. Certain types of contact lenses are designed to let more oxygen through to the eye.

Drainage of tear film

The lacrimal glands secrete lacrimal fluid, which flows through the main excretory ducts into the space between the eyeball and lids. When the eyes blink, the lacrimal fluid is spread across the surface of the eye. Lacrimal fluid gathers in the lacrimal lake, and is drawn into the puncta by capillary action, then flows through the lacrimal canaliculi at the inner corner of the eyelids entering the lacrimal sac, then on to the nasolacrimal duct, and finally into the nasal cavity. An excess of tears, as with strong emotion, can thus cause the nose to run.
