* BigFishInABiggerOcean: In the third season, Fox's older brother Silver is finally expelled from St. Bridget's, having gotten too old to continue attending a middle school. Unable to find placement in a high school or secure employment, he ends up trying to parlay his years of experience as St. Bridget's worst bully into some sort of criminal venture, but ends up in jail because it turns out that it's a lot harder to intimidate a cop than it is to intimidate teachers or kids.

* InsultingFromBehindTheLanguageBarrier: St. Bridget's does not have an actual French teacher, and thus Principal Sister Rose took the job, despite not actually speaking French herself. Fox became the class' most proficient French speaker for the sole purpose of being able to insult the principal to her face without her realizing it.

** After three seasons of Ainsworth playing Mark with a General North American accent that could be from Toronto or LA, presumably taking his cues from the other kids in the show who are from St. John's rather than what a Gen X'er there would've had at that age, in Cabaret, Mark starts codeswitching into a more distinctly Newfoundland accent which gets stronger still in imitation of Mike Sr and Pop. The real Mark Critch does indeed perform in a Newfie'er accent than he uses conversationally in interviews.

* TheTalk: In "Airing Out", Mark is forced to endure multiple lectures about sex after getting caught with a porno magazine - first from his father, then from his mother, and finally from Father Garcia. Unfortunately, his father is clueless, his mother terrifies him so badly he dissociates, and Father Garcia's lecture is just him rambling on about his escapades before he joined the priesthood. By the end of it, Mark is no closer to understanding sex than he was before.
