* DeadlyPrank: The premise of the film. Courtney and the others were going to surprise Liz for her 17th birthday, while ''kidnapping her'', since the prank has gotten popular with others high schoolers... until the "joke" was on them. Generally, the prank wouldn't have been lethal but Courtney just ''had'' to use that jawbreaker without running it by Marcie and Julie first.

** Does Courtney mourn Liz's death? Just a little. Does she care about incriminating an unknown loser whom she had sex with, just to convince the police that neither ''she'' nor her "friends" were related to the case? Nope!
** Also, when the girls discover that Liz is dead, she is surprisingly a lot ''calmer'' than Julie and Marcie, who are both on the verge of panicking. This could easily be chalked up to her just being in shock, but still.
