* Celia and Megsie have to work together to prevent Isabel from signing the farm over to the uncle without letting on that ''the DisappearedDad may be alive'' before proof is in hand.

** Isabel eventually gets her to stop by yelling over her.

* Cyril, when he first arrives, keeps joking about how the farm is full of poo:
** It starts when Celia asks where they are:
--->'''Cyril''': "We're in the Land of Poo. Poo as far as the eye can see. Duck poo, hen poo, cow poo, goat poo. In fact, it's the British Museum of Poo."
** He greets his cousins with "Greetings, o covered-in-poo people. Do you speak English?". Norman deadpanly tells him that he's early, and he responds calling him "Poo Man" and saying that they come from the Land of Soap and Indoor Toilets.
** When Celia laments, "I'm covered in poo!", Cyril responds, "Good news, you'll fit right in!".
* When it's revealed that the two oldest Green children will have to share beds with their same-sex cousins, they [[WouldRatherSuffer claim they'd rather share with animals]]. Vincent, despite not needing to share, says that he'd rather share with an elephant. Nanny [=McPhee=] makes it so that all the kids ''do'' share with animals. Also, when the girls are sharing with Geraldine the cow, one of them says, "You're not cooperating! Cooperate!".
* In this film, the "the person you need is Nanny [=McPhee=]" line is said over and over again ''by the items in the shop''.

* The talking, [[{{Gasshole}} burping]] crow. And eventually, he saves the day (albeit [[BadassUnintentional unintentionally]]) by eating the explosive putty, [[InflatingBodyGag blowing up like a balloon]], and burping with such great force that he harvests the crops and blows Topsy and Turvy away.
* Nanny [=McPhee=] making the pigs do synchronised swimming and climb trees.
