* DataDriveMacGuffin: When the [[FunWithAcronyms FLDSMDFR]] [[AiIsACrapshoot goes haywire]] and destroys the town, Flint has a kill code on a flash drive that can power it down. He travels with his friends in order to reach its center, which proves to be difficult, until Flint loses the kill code. He has his dad send him a backup, and although [[TechnologicallyBlindElders he struggles a bit]], he's able to send it to him. However, Flint's dad sends him the wrong thing, so it doesn't work. Flint ends up destroying the FLDSMDFR by using his [[ChekhovsGun Spray-On Shoes]] to clog it up, and that's what ends up saving the day.

* {{Foil}}: Between Tim Lockwood and Mayor Shelbourne. The latter is a greedy CorruptPolitician who instantly jumps at the idea of Swallow Falls raining food, and even embraces how the mutation makes the food bigger. By comparison, Tim Lockwood is a relatively humble and unambitious man who is content working at his own chum shop, and is nervous about the hidden consequences of the food raining down. The main example of their differences comes when each "[[{{Pun}} parents]]" Flynn on what he should do concerning the food. Mayor Shelbourne claims [[BlatantLies Flynn's always been like a son to him]] when it benefits him, tempts him with making it rain food some more, frames it as a threat that he'll fall out of favor, [[spoiler: and [[TheScapegoat throws him under the bus]].]] Meanwhile, Tim shows [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre unconditional love]] to Flynn when the latter's at his lowest, tried earlier to warn Flynn at the expense of his son's approval, begrudgingly lets his son be when [[CassandraTruth he won't listen]], [[spoiler: and is willing to help Flynn at his most crucial point]].
