*** The way it's shot is a big factor in its funny value. We get a shot of Satoshi sleeping peacefully with his mouth open... and then the camera moves over, and we see Houtarou with a deadpan look on his face.

** While Satoshi was trying to cheer Mayaka up, still in his outrageous outfit (although without the huge Saturn on his head this time), Houtarou gets many opportunities to showcase his [[DeadpanSnarker trademark snark]].
-->'''Satoshi''': (sympathetically) Everyone makes mistakes.
-->In '''Houtarou's''' mind: ''Don't say that in'' that ''outfit!''
-->'''Satoshi''': It's nothing to be depressed over. We're all the same!
-->In '''Houtarou's''' mind: ''Don't say that in'' that ''outfit!''

-->'''Houtarou''': (in an undertone) Not really.
* And one more:

-->'''Houtarou''': But I ''do'' have plans.
-->'''Tomoe''': (dubiously) Plans? Like what?
-->'''Houtarou''': Napping.
* It's fearful (and hilarious) how Tomoe can decipher the sounds Houtarou makes after years of being siblings. Example from the scene when she asks him about the part-time job:
-->'''Tomoe''': How about it?
-->('''Houtarou''' makes a non-committal sound)
-->'''Tomoe''': Want to do it? Maybe not?
