* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The whole party near the end. What the heck is a stereotypical Scottish man, complete with huge red mustache, kilt, Tam O'Shanter bonnet, and thick brogue accent, doing at the party? Why is there an African-American girl in a polka-dot bikini, a woman in a tutu and roller skates, a caricatured Chinese man, a large and buxom woman who can easily fling her rail-thin dance partner around and a weird idiot who takes photographs of skydivers just to take home... ''and look at them''?

* TechnologyMarchesOn: The skydivers jump with Army surplus rigs, equipped with round bell canopies. Such rigs were phased out by wing parachutes in the 1970s. It's justified InUniverse as Harry and Joe were divers in the UsefulNotes/KoreanWar and probably owned them as surplus.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: For all that he's wildly out of place, the Scotsman has some fans for having no trouble at all dancing with the "beefy girl".
