1* The opening where Britt's dad cruelly rips off the head of young Britt's toy, just because Britt got sent home from school for trying to stop a bunch of bullies. And thanks to his piece-of-shit parenting skills, Britt had become a {{Manchild}} who lives by what his dad told him on that day: "trying doesn't matter if you always fail."
2* In the 2011 film, how Britt finds out about his father's death. He's in a limo with his latest bit of fluff, then he sees on the news broadcast on the limo TV a picture of his father with the words "James Reid: 1950-2010." He's absolutely shocked and shattered. To add further insult to injury, as soon as the limo stops, it's mobbed by reporters asking how he feels.
