Danny reluctantly picks up a guitar and heads outside, after which we hear "a psychedelic bus" starting up.

The Bundys and the D'Arcys get into a property line dispute that escalates into a prank war.
!This episode contains examples of:
* BlatantLies: Danny Partridge and Gary Coleman claim to not be who they are, no matter how clear it is.
* EscalatingWar: Granted, the war doesn't start out small with both sides commandeering others property; it ends with both sides having their houses ruined.
* ForTheWantOfANail: If Jefferson had reimbursed Al for the apple (even though it was rightfully his), both parties wouldn't have had their houses destroyed.
* HollywoodLaw: This episode runs off the premise that anything on another person's property belongs to them.
* HypocriteHasAPoint: While Al is called out for mooching off the D'Arcys, his assessment of Jefferson's station in life is entirely correct.
-->'''Al:''' Excuse me, you don't have any property. Your wife has property, some of which is you.
* IgnoredAesop: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]]
-->'''Al:''' There's probably a lesson to be learned from all this, but I'll be damned if I know what it is.
* MotiveDecay: Once the D'Arcys commandeer Al's driveway, it's clear the war is not about the apple anymore.
* OldShame: Danny Partridge and Gary Coleman apparently view their StarMakingRole as this, as they deny vehemently who they are.
* PropertyLine: This is what starts the whole fight; once Al jacks the D'Arcy's house, though, neither side uses the property line rule to justify their actions.
* SpecialGuest: Danny Patridge and Gary Coleman appear working as a surveyor and code inspector respectively. Hilariously, both deny who they are.
