3!!This episode contains examples of:
4* AllForNothing: Despite the events Chris went through for Anna (especially the atrocities he did to Brian), Anna is [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome never seen again]] after this episode and [[StatusQuoIsGod Chris is back to being single]].
5* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Invoked and averted. Peter tells Chris that girls love when boys are tough and demeaning to them. In practice, Anna is not charmed at all when Chris tries to do this and she breaks up with him.
6* BullyingTheDisabled: Chris tries to ask Peter's friends for advice about his relationship with Anna. Joe tries to give him a genuine heart-to-heart, but Chris insensitively says that he'd prefer to ask someone who isn't "broken from the waist down".
7-->'''Joe:''' I'm a father!
8-->'''Chris:''' You're a two-wheeled monster!
9-->''(Joe starts crying)''
10* CannotTalkToWomen: During their first date, Chris is a nervous wreck, including asking Anna if she ever made it with one of the dogs and if she enjoyed the food that hasn't been brought to their table yet. Anna just tells him to relax and takes his hand.
11* ContinuityNod:
12** Peter mentions his pirate crew is made up of guys he knew during his fishing boat days.
13** One of the dates Peter arranges for Chris is former crush [[Recap/FamilyGuyS3E12ToLoveAndDieInDixie Barbara]].
14* CoversAlwaysLie: The poster for the episode put Peter and his pirate crew front and center, even though the pirate plot was only for the first act.
15* FreudianSlip: When Peter's friends start suggesting things he could wear as part of his pirate persona, Quagmire suddenly confesses to sleeping with an underage crossing guard.
16* HalfwayPlotSwitch: For Peter. The first half of the episode focuses on him adopting a parrot and becoming a mock pirate, while Chris has a separate subplot with Anna. After the parrot is killed on one of his raids, Peter gives up his pirate person and gets involved with Chris' subplot, which takes the focus for the rest of the episode.
17* HighPoweredCareerWoman: Parodied in the TV show Quagmire, Joe, and Cleveland are watching at the bar called ''Busy Business Lady Whose Life Is Missing Something But She Doesn't Realize It Because [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment She's So Busy With Business]]''. In it, a LadyInAPowerSuit harriedly answers phones ringing off the hook, turning down meetings because [[{{Workaholic}} she has more meetings]] she has to get to. A male colleague enters the room and asks her out. When she tries to turn him down as [[ManVsCareer she's too busy]] he interrupts her saying, "Over the next 90 minutes, I'd like to show you all of your problems can be solved by my penis." You can watch the clip [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXM08-GyucQ here]].
18* InnocentInnuendo: Lois is horrified when Chris tells her that Anna "took a dump" on him, but is relieved when he tells her that he meant "break up".
19* KickTheDog:
20** Chris wants to apologize to Anna, but he needs an excuse to go to the vet, so he hits Brian in the face with a chair.
21** Also taken quite literally at the end when Stewie kicks a now unconscious Brian in the gut before running off.
22* NoodleIncident: Quagmire apparently had sex with a crossing guard that he later found out was twelve years old.
23* OverlyLongGag: Peter trying to pick up the dead bullfrog and throw it out Chris' window without touching it with his hands. It takes over a minute for him to finally get rid of it.
24* APirate400YearsTooLate: Peter starts acting like a pirate after getting a parrot. This episode also provides the page image.
25* ShoutOut: Peter's quote "After we've had our fill of bread and wine, we shall tell tales of other times we had our fill of bread and wine." may be a reference to the following bit from one of Creator/DaveChappelle's stand-up routines:
26-->'''Dave Chappelle:''' All white people talk about when they get high is other times that they got high.
