The FridgeBrilliance kicks in when you realize which ethnic group Jar-Jar is accused of being a negative stereotype of.

* The comically unsuitable "party mix" Daisy puts on for the housewarming party includes "[[Music/DonMcLean American Pie]]" - not only is the subject matter of the song a little bleak for party background music, but the unstated joke is that the LP version [[EpicRocking is over eight minutes long]], which could feel like an eternity in the context of an already awkward social gathering.

* What happens if you skip to the end of the ''Skip to the End'' documentary? You get one last glimpse of Tim and Daisy living HappilyEverAfter. In other words, as well as referencing a joke in the show the title's also an instruction.

Not to mention the fact that the lady in question has been made up to look not entirely dissimilar to the despised Jar-Jar himself.
