The Ho Yay doesn't count, since Nick was still playing Emma as a woman.
*** Notably, which interpretation you take changes the meaning of the final song's first lyric: [[spoiler:"Emma, I'm sorry. You lost." Either an assimilated Paul is mocking Emma, or he's truly apologizing for having failed to prevent the end of the world.]]

* HarsherInHindsight: Ted being an asshole during the apocalypse and antagonizing Bill -- namely, telling him [[spoiler:not to bother trying to save his daughter since she's likely already dead, something he's regrettably right about]] -- is one of his most loathsome moments. Then in Season 2 of ''WebVideo/NightmareTime'' we get confirmation that the "hot chocolate boy" is Ted's younger brother Peter, who was one of the first people we saw to be infected. Ted makes no mention of having a brother in this show, but if at any point earlier in the day he witnessed Peter singing and dancing, his lashing out at Bill could be interpreted as carrying feelings about his brother's death and taking it out on Bill, a somewhat more sympathetic reading of the moment.

Alice's vehement dislike of her, and her hurt at thinking her father prefers Grace, feels extremely justified in hindsight.
