Added DiffLines:

* AnAesop:
--->'''Doc:''' Chris, you can't base your legacy on lies!
* BasedOnAGreatBigLie: Chris decides to spice up his dull report on Doc's romantic experiences by spinning it to be a SerialKiller story. [[GoneHorriblyRight It works a little too well]].
* GoneHorriblyRight: Chris thinks that a fabricated SerialKiller story will make for a good read and get him immortalized in the school yearbook. Unfortunately, the Corleone staff takes it seriously and contacts the local police and press to warn people of the killer, turning Bed-Stuy into a ghost town scared stiff of "The Scissor Killer".
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: This is Chris' motivation in the episode. Even Greg has honors under his name in the yearbook. Chris scrambles to join the school newspaper to have any sort of achievement to his name.
* LetMeGetThisStraight: Doc lampshades how ridiculous it is that a notorious serial killer would just explain his entire backstory and motive to Chris, some random teenager, on a city block, randomly. Doubles as an ArmorPiercingQuestion.
* MedalOfDishonor: Chris gets immortalized in the yearbook.. as a "Liar".
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Well, {{Jerkass}} anyway, but Lisa isn't too subtle in making unflattering allusions to Chris' ethnicity.
* WhamLine: An InUniverse one.
--->'''Chris:''' That's no killer! That's my father!
--->'''Detective:''' ''(has a gun to Julius' head)'' ..How do you know?
--->'''Narrator!Chris:''' If I lied again, there was gonna be an obituary.
--->'''Chris:''' ..Because there is no killer.
