* FriendlyEnemy: Played with: Danny Kriezel appears to have viewed his bullying of Niles as just good-natured youthful hijinks, and on being reminded who Niles is greets him warmly as if they were old friends. He does show genuine remorse when he realises how affected Niles was by it, however.

* SchoolyardBullyAllGrownUp: The Kriezel Brothers. [[ReformedBully Danny]] has actually matured and is genuinely sorry when Niles explains how being bullied affected him. Billy on the other hand shows no remorse and still laughs about his actions, unaware that Frasier is the victim he's talking about.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Danny initially doesn't recognise Niles, and has to be prodded into doing so by Niles reminding him of some of the torments he was subjected to. Upon doing so, Danny chuckles and initially asks Niles if he still keeps in touch with anyone from school as if they were old friends.
