Added DiffLines:

* TakeThat: As part of their montage of birthday celebrations, Anne and Sprig check out the Hollywood sign... and are distinctly unimpressed.
-->'''Anne''': Meh. [''walks off'']


Added DiffLines:

* YouMustBeThisTallToRide: Sprig is denied entry to a rollercoaster as he's nowhere near tall enough. He and Anne pointing out it's his birthday, along with Sprig's PuppyDogEyes, are enough to persuade the operator to make an exception. The resulting ride demonstrates ''why'' this trope exists, as Sprig repeatedly slips out from under the safety bar and Anne has to grab him to stop him falling out.

* WackyMarriageProposal: The two neighbors [[SheetOfGlass who had their TV smashed]] in "Thai Feud" show up again, and are apparently also a couple. The pink-haired guy attempts to propose to his boyfriend with a skywritten message, and asks him to turn around and look at it. Right before he does, the clown balloon flies into the shot and covers up the word "marry". The boyfriend turns back and says in an annoyed tone, "No, Tyler, I will not clown-face you!"

** While not directly addressed, a great deal of Anne's behavior when determined to celebrate Sprig's birthday and make it his 'number one birthday' becuase she wants to be a good friend to him draws parallels between her and Sasha's own celebrations of Anne's 13th birthday seem in "[[Recap/AmphibiaS1E39Reunion Reunion]]", which sadly indicates that even if Anne's long since learned that Sasha's not a good friend, she's still being [[ToxicFriendInfluence influenced by the times she spent together with her]], good and bad, as she has no idea of what a good friend would do for another on their birthday to make it an enjoyable one besides what Sasha did for her, even despite the fact that Anne was uneasy about their celebration activities. That said, she's nowhere ''near'' as pushy as Sasha was getting convincing Sprig to have fun with his birthday activities.

** As the clown balloon is flying out of control, a man is shown in his therapist's office thanking her for her support in conquering his fear. You would expect him to state that he had a fear of clowns but it's actually a fear of making direct eye contact with people-- which still doesn't help him as he ends up locking eyes with the clown's terrifying visage as it floats past the window and triggers his phobia again.

* RejectedMarriageProposal: PlayedForLaughs. A pink haired man named Tyler is shown proposing to his boyfriend (the same two guys from “Thai Feud”) and asks him to look up to the sky to see the big question. But because the clown balloon covers the 'marry' portion, the boyfriend reads it as "Will you clown-face me?" which jumbles Tyler's proposal.
