* AnAesop: Rochelle tries giving Chris one InUniverse by micromanaging his project, attempting to show him all of the hardships of child care when he attempts to cheese it by keeping the egg in the refrigerator for its duration.



* YankTheDogsChain: Just when Chris finds the real Junebug in his house and brings it in just in time for his presentation, Caruso takes it, puts it in Chris' seat, and naturally, Chris sits on it right when his turn is up.

* CripplingOverspecialization: When Chris loses Junebug, he grabs an ordinary white egg, uses a plethora or complex tools to make an exact replica, and returns to school ready for his easy grade. When he turns to Greg to examine it, Greg points out that the symbol stamped on it by Ms. Morello to ensure no one swaps out their egg was forged backwards.

* EggSitting: Chris' class gets this assignment. Chris gets a ''brown'' egg and no partner, and tries to fudge the assignment by simply putting the egg in the refrigerator, but his mother, worried that he won't take parenthood seriously, forces him to take care of the egg properly.



* UnfortunateImplications: While every one of Chris' classmates got white eggs and a partner of the opposite sex, Chris gets a ''brown'' egg and has to raise it by himself. Ms. Morello points out that it's really due to the uneven amount of boys and girls in the class, [[InnocentlyInsensitive but she also says that he could probably "relate" to it, as he either had an absent father or his mother doesn't know his name]].

Added DiffLines:

* AnAesop: Rochelle tries giving Chris one InUniverse by micromanaging his project, attempting to show him all of the hardships of child care when he attempts to cheese it by keeping the egg in the refrigerator for its duration.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Especially if it's Chris. He attempts to just keep the egg he's supposed to be taking care of as if it's a real child in the refrigerator for the duration of the project. Rochelle finds out and decides to give him a reality check.
* LoopholeAbuse: Attempted by Chris, defied by Rochelle. Chris' plan is to keep the egg that's supposed to assume the role of his "child" in the refrigerator, and when it comes to reporting his experiences "raising" it, he'd just share his tales of looking after his siblings. Rochelle catches wind of this and makes sure he knows just how hard it is to take care of a real child.
* CripplingOverspecialization: When Chris loses Junebug, he grabs an ordinary white egg, uses a plethora or complex tools to make an exact replica, and returns to school ready for his easy grade. When he turns to Greg to examine it, Greg points out that the symbol stamped on it by Ms. Morello to ensure no one swaps out their egg was forged backwards.
* PetTheDog: After about a week of working Chris' nerves and ruining his sleep schedule, when he finds him passed out with Junebug by his side, she tucks him in and lets him sleep. She also found Junebug when Chris lost him and returned it to him without so much as a scolding.
* SeriousBusiness: The egg project is this to Rochelle. She wants to make sure it's every bit as painful and exhausting as real parenting to convince Chris not to become a teenage father.
* UnfortunateImplications: While every one of Chris' classmates got white eggs and a partner of the opposite sex, Chris gets a ''brown'' egg and has to raise it by himself. Ms. Morello points out that it's really due to the uneven amount of boys and girls in the class, [[InnocentlyInsensitive but she also says that he could probably "relate" to it, as he either had an absent father or his mother doesn't know his name]].
* WellIntentionedExtremist: When she hears about Chris' scheme to get an easy A, Rochelle makes sure Chris is doing the project the way he's supposed to, but even ''more'' realistically. It quickly gets on Chris' nerves and tires him out (especially since she'd often wake him up in the middle of the night), but she only wants him to not only follow the rules, but understand that raising a child isn't as easy as he might think.
* YankTheDogsChain: Just when Chris finds the real Junebug in his house and brings it in just in time for his presentation, Caruso takes it, puts it in Chris' seat, and naturally, Chris sits on it right when his turn is up.
