''Literature/IslandOfTheSequinedLoveNun''. Furthermore, Officer Rivera, who appears in Literature/PracticalDemonkeeping, later ends up on the San Francisco PD, where he has repeated run-ins with [[Literature/BloodsuckingFiends Tommy and Jody]] as well as [[Literature/ADirtyJob Charlie Asher]]. Asher in turn meets [[Literature/CoyoteBlue Minty Fresh]], now running a record shop in the City, and one of Josh's friends muses that he wishes he could go to Hawaii and become a Rasta like his cousin Preston, who changed his name to Kona and got a job with a [[Literature/FlukeOrIKnowWhyTheWingedWhaleSings whale research outfit]].

* GiftOfTheMagiPlot: An odd variation. At the start of Molly and Theo's relationship, she finally agreed to stay on her antipsychotic medication, which among other things prevents delusions of being an AfterTheEnd ActionGirl, and in return he finally gave up his pot habit. But when Christmas comes Theo wants to get her a priceless antique sword that would be absolutely perfect for her ActionGirl persona. To afford it, he starts growing pot again to sell it, and falls off the wagon. Meanwhile, she's getting him a massive, elaborate bong. To afford that, she stops taking her meds.

* AccidentalMurder: The cause of Santa Claus' death is just a case of domestic violence that got out of control (He was hit too hard with a shovel).

* RedShirt: ''Literally'' invoked. One character decides to wear a Starfleet command shirt because it's a festive, Christmas-y red colour. Another character even comments [[{{Lampshading}} on how the Red Shirts always died]] in that series. Guess who gets shot in the head when the lead zombie walk's through the door? Here's a hint. He's wearing a red shirt, and it ain't the guy in the Santa suit.
