* There's a few times where it becomes extremely clear how much Harry has rubbed off on his dog and daughter. You have the 7-year-old's narration about how a minor-league nasty "learned the hard way" not to mess with her and Mouse, then her answering a haunt's taunts by telling it to go bother someone else or "things will get ugly." And Mouse [[BlatantLies saying he has no idea where]] he picked up a bad habit of snark.
