* NonconsensualPornography: PlayedWith; Joey finds out that Phoebe is somehow a porn star after someone asks for her autograph at the coffee shop. Later, he rents out one of her movies and as the others watch, they notice a tattoo on her ankle and realize that it's actually Phoebe's Evil Twin Ursula using her sister's name. After Phoebe finds out, she gets even by collecting her royalty checks and by shaming her fans.

* LateToTheRealization: Phoebe gets mistaken for her sister Ursula, who is starring in porn under Phoebe's name, and gets asked for her autograph by her "biggest fan". Not once does Phoebe question why anyone would be her fan or ask for her autograph; she doesn't find out until she walks in on the others watching one of Ursula's movies, and even then her reaction is "Oh, my God, what am I doing?"
