1* On "Mama's Identity": The ImagineSpot of Ralph and Harry being treated as sex objects in a world where women treat men like the lesser sex -- first as Playboy bunnies, then as cigarette vendors in a fancy restaurant, and finally as beauty contest winners.
2* In "Alice's Dress", Harry tries to explain to Alice why it's a bad idea to wear a dress with a see-through top (and no bra) to a fancy dinner event, and Alice counters by telling him that people of his generation condemn risque clothes because they're ashamed of their bodies. So what does Harry do to show Alice that she's going to embarrass herself (and, by proxy, the whole family) by wearing the see-through dress? He decides to go to the dinner in an undershirt, boxers, and sock garters.
3** From the same episode, Irma and Harry being bombarded with racy ads featuring scantily-clad women, and women making out with men on TV.
4** Harry insulting Chet's proposed outfit for the fancy dinner: a mod-style striped jacket with plaid pants.
5* The episode wherein Jaime was given a camera to find a more productive outlet for his energy:
6** Jaime says that Irma doesn't have to tell Harry... cut to Jaime with visible injuries on his face.
7** Irma is all supportive of Jaime's pictures... until a picture that wins an award in the school is of her in curlers.
8* When Chet is in a relationship with Prudence, Ralph of course says he hopes Chet is getting with an "All-american girl". Harry of course mentions "I don't think Chet knows of any Indian girls."
9* One that also crosses over with Heartwarming: In the first episode, Harry flat out ''takes'' Irma to the hotel he stayed at to prove he didn't have an affair. When he decides to drive her back, Irma mentions she has to call the kids - Harry says "Why don't you call them from the hotel?" because he is taking her to a ''fancier'' hotel for the night to show how much he loves her.
10* Harry talks to a government official who claims to have dirt on him - In TheForties, Harry was seen with 15 year old girls. Harry points out "Well back then ''I'' was fifteen!"
