* Tom bungles his hearing to the point where he answers no to the question of if he knows Greg, and everyone’s reactions: Logan is almost frozen in horror, Kendall has his hand over his mouth like he’s going to throw up, and Shiv never more clearly looks like she’s regretting her whole marriage.

* During the family therapy session, Marcia, Tom and Willa sit outside and talk. They get to the subject of Willa's profession, to which Marcia says she had a friend back in Paris who was a prostitute, and very intelligent (which Willa takes as a compliment.) Later in the conversation, she comes up again, with some...interesting details thrown in:
-->'''Marcia:''' You know my friend, the one who did what you do? She actually was murdered. ''(Tom and Willa look concerned)'' It had nothing to do with her being a prostitute. it had to do with a restaurant that went ''*poof*''.
-->'''Willa:''' ...What?



** While viewing one apartment, Greg is unable to even stand up fully in the bedroom, which the realtor is blissfully unaware of as he tries to sell Greg on all of the available storage space. Greg is not impressed.

Once he leaves, a few passing employees look into the room in confusion, with Greg only able to say "It was good news!"
