* ForWantOfANail: Arguably the whole plot is kicked off by Rudolph's Uncle Gernot losing his key to get out of the catacombs. [[spoiler: This causes them to have to exit through the sewers, where they almost bump directly in Tony's family driving in their car. Tony seeing them and his reaction accidentally causes the car accident that gets the Thompson's stranded at the bed-and-breakfast castle. Them being late to Rudolph's birthday is what causes the Sackville-Baggs to come with them to Germany, leading to Rudolph taking shelter in Tony's room.]]

* HelicopterParents: Frederick doesn't want any of his family leaving the catacombs and is annoyed with Rudolph for going outside, even though he didn't go farther than a few metres at most. All three of his children are shown to chafe under these restrictions, with Gregory and Rudolph going out anyway and Anna complaining that "Father doesn't want us doing anything." However he does have good reason to fear for his children's safety.
