* BaitAndSwitch: When Tony is driving Anne home from the dance for the soldiers, and they've both heard about Mr. Mahoney's son dying (see {{Foreshadowing}} below), they get pulled over by a motorcycle cop, and Tony, in no mood to deal with the police, curtly tells the cop to give them their ticket and be on his way. Turns out Tony wasn't doing anything wrong - the cop was just so happy to see someone on the road (as people weren't driving as much because of gas rationing, which is TruthInTelevision) he just wanted to talk to them.
