!Tropes for the film:
* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: There is a Basque character named Hiztegi Argitaletxea Sarrionandia (but they can call him "Izzy"). His name is a genuine Basque for "Dictionary of the Sarrionandia Publishing House".
* KindlyVet: The vet is so kindly, he's the only one who can resist sleeping with Rachel. ItMakesSenseInContext. Sorta.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: It gets outright literal: Mormon Harlan gets to Georgia's house to fetch her grand-daughter, Rachel (who performed oral sex on him on a canoe) to convince her to get his actual girlfriend together with him to release him for his sins. When Rachel yells at him that it wasn't a big deal, but just a blowjob, and Georgia comes into the scene in a severely shocked manner, Rachel just responds with "[[LampshadeHanging no good deed goes unpunished]]".
* {{Tagline}}: "In this family, attitude doesn't skip a generation".
