* CrappyHomemadeGift: The episode begins with Linda admonishing Tina, Gene, and Louise for their "half-assed" homemade birthday gifts for their grandmother (such as a necklace made of one noodle on a string). Rather than put in the effort of making better gifts this year, the kids try to break into the titular abandoned ceramics room and pass off other kids' old pottery as their own. They succeed in getting in, but ultimately realize that [[AnAesop a genuinely homemade gift, even if it turns out crappy, is better than lying to their family.]]

* HardWorkHardlyWorks: Louise goes through hoops to find and retrieve an already handmade ceramic from the hidden ceramics room because she can't be bothered to make an ''actual'' handmade gift herself that would take considerably less time than doing the whole quest, until she realizes that she doesn't want to cheat like Mr. Frond did.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Irony}}: Louise doesn't want to half-ass making a half-assed handmade gift for her grandparents, so she puts a lot of work to find the ceramics room just to pick an already-made handmade ceramic. And to further add salt to the wound, when the kids ''do'' actually make ceramics, they're god-awful anyway (Linda's "necklace" is the equivalent of putting a heavy rock to wear, and Bob's is literally a lump of clay).

* HypocriticalHumor: Teddy is the one who blames ''Bob'' for apparently being too disruptive in his poor job, though Bob pretends to agree with him just because blaming Teddy would surely break him apart.

Determined to not put in the effort for a gift for Grandma Gloria's birthday, the kids try finding a fabled ceramics room supposedly walled off in the 80's due to a kiln fire. Meanwhile, Teddy makes himself uncomfortably at home at the restaurant while fixing cell phone screens.

* EntitledBastard: Teddy makes himself way too comfortable at the restaurant when he sets up his repair work there, to the point of acting like this is his business too and using the employee bathroom (which he backs up).

** Gloria apparently thinks Tina, Gene and Louise need to make her better birthday gifts, despite the fact that we've never seen her giving them anything for ''any'' occasion. As awful as the kids' gifts are, at least they do ''something'' for her.
