2* The finale to the series ends without revealing whether or not Chris passed the GED. While it plays homage to ''Series/TheSopranos'', at the same time, it's a clever way of showing that Chris did in fact pass it. At the end of each episode, the punchline would involve Chris either failing at what he had attempted to do or otherwise the butt of the closing joke. In this case, it finally breaks the running gag by ending the show before revealing what happens.
3** In fact, since it's not just the episode that ends, but the entire series, we can assume that Chris passing the GED led to him starting his stand-up career, and thus he finally became the successful Chris Rock known today.
4* Rochelle's fixation on Chris selling drugs isn't just from hatred of drugs. Rochelle hates being seen as a stereotypical poor black woman and her children working for a drug gang is a stigma she doesn't want. Also, the authorities are harsher toward minorities who are dealing with and using drugs.

7* Considering the rather shoddy quality of Risky's products, one can only imagine what happened to the ''plutonium'' he sold to that one man in "Everybody Hates Playboy".

10* Chris's dad had a system to beat the price of collect calls, which the children knew. How come he hung up as soon as he heard the words "You have a collect call from"?
11** His method was to speak fast enough before the options came up. Perhaps the kids can't speak that fast?
