* TheChewToy: Rex, from the moment he meets the EVO rabbit, becomes target practice for the universe. Meeting Annie didn't help.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Annie asks Rex if he has a girlfriend, he replies that the girl he likes is in league with an evil dictator who wants him dead. Annie assumes he means the girl in question has an OverprotectiveDad.

** Annie broke her hand by texting while riding a motorcycle. On a half pipe.
** Rex returns to the restaurant to finds the fire department on hand. Noah's explanation is "Annie sneezed."
* ShoutOut: A Providence soldier describes the EVO rabbit in a manner reminiscent of [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog]].

* SuperPersistentPredator: The rabbit EVO spends an entire week chasing Rex, pouncing on him when he least expects it and running away if Rex gets the upper hand.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Noah's reaction to Rex's replacement for the limo being one of Providence's armored cars.
* TooDumbToLive: Even after the incident with the limo, Annie somehow manages to top herself by firing a missile at Rex while retrieving her purse from the armored car. Rex catches the missile, wrecking a fast food joint in the process, but Annie remains oblivious, and throws a tube of stain remover at him, causing the missile to explode in his face.
* UnluckilyLucky: Rex manages to weaponize Annie's curse when he tell her to use a missile launcher on the rabbit EVO, knowing she'll lock onto him instead, then guides the missile into the intended target. The rabbit EVO does not survive.
