* RecycledPremise: The "familiar room" is reminiscent of the "sidekicks lounge" from "[[Funny/The Tick vs. The Tick]]", right down to those relegated to the area sharing stories of the injuries and abuse they take on the job, and one of them being a nonhuman entity--i.e. a cat, though unlike the superhero's dog companion in the cartoon, this pet doesn't speak. Really, the whole episode is so silly, it ''could'' be the plot of a Saturday morning cartoon, albeit for the more ''adult'' set.

** Simon has ordered "bloodle service" for his table, which is similar to "bottle service" except the "bottle" is a naked man strapped down to a tray.

** This little gem in the familiar room:
--->'''Colby:''' So how long have you been a familiar? You don't look very familiar.

* NoodleIncident: Laszlo's [[ArtifactOfDoom hat]] somehow caused the [[BeenThereShapedHistory Irish potato famine]].

None


* LaserGuidedKarma: Simon takes Laszlo's hat before kicking them out of his club, turning down their idea of a merger. Because the CoolHat is actually an ArtifactOfDoom, it does not take long for his William-Tell game to lead to the club exploding, putting him into a full-body cast.

not a trope


* CoolHat: Laszlo likes his witch-skin hat and seems to be in denial about its cursed properties. Even Simon wants it, having wanted it on the ship-ride to America and invited the gang just to take it from them.

* LongList: The highlight of the episode is Simon revealing the whole colorful cast of Manhattan vampires who constitute his "crew", in a segment that just ''keeps on going'' and somehow keeps on finding new ridiculous gimmicks for each new vampire who shows up ("[[DiscoDan Mr. 50s]]", "[[TheQuietOne The Silent One]]", "[[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Blagvad the Exsanguinator]]", "[[PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy Count Rapula]]", "[[AerithAndBob Len the Accountant]]", etc.).
