| 1 | * SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Young David imagining a story where his principal (played by the one and only Creator/DonKnotts) is blown away by the moon rock's security team: |
| 2 | -->'''David:''' "The old man reached out to touch the rock, when ''[[DramaticGunCock *security readies their guns*]]'' 'Freeze! Don't touch that moon rock!' But the old man was deaf, or something." |
| 3 | -->'''Old Man:''' ''*to no one in particular*'' "[[ReadingStageDirectionsOutLoud I'm deaf, or something!]]" |
| 4 | * JerkassWoobie: Ben. [[spoiler:Roscoe]] also turns out to be one of these. |
| 5 | * NightmareFuel: Hey, it's just a comedy-drama about a grown-up BullyAndWimpPairing continuing their antics, right? [[spoiler: Then the former bully chases down and tries to kill his former victim in revenge for what happened to him after he was dealt with at school. Using a drill, a nail gun, some circular saws and a blowtorch. Then the former victim pushes him off a rock and believes he's dead. Then he turns up at the victim's house.]] [[Film/Deadpool2016 Did I say a comedy-drama? It's a slasher movie.]] |
| 6 | * TheScrappy: It makes you question if David actually spawned Ben, given the amount of unlikable and unsympathetic traits he has. And the fact that, unlike David, Ben never regretted his bullying behavior nor apologized to the bullying that he delivered to Roscoe's son. |
| 7 | * TearJerker: How everything spiralled out of control. [[spoiler: Roscoe took to bullying David because that was the only way he knew to bond. Dave's childhood was ruined and he wanted to get Roscoe out of his life by any means necessary. Roscoe then stole the Moon Rock because he wanted to become an astronaut. Dave reported him to the authorities not just because it was the right thing to do and he wanted to be the hero, but to deal with him once and for all. But Roscoe was abandoned by his parents and would up in an orphanage and from there to what was basically a prison for kids. When Dave came back in town, things escalated and Roscoe tried to kill Dave, which ended up in Dave seemingly killing him. When Roscoe turns up alive, the two start fighting again and are about to kill each other before their kids intervene. It's even more poignant that they couldn't let go of the grudge when their kids could, and that the fathers never even realized they had ruined each other's life until much later.]] |
| 8 | ** This quote: |
| 9 | --> '''Roscoe''': At least you have a life. [[spoiler: You ruined mine.]] |
| 10 | --> '''Dave''': [[spoiler: You ruined mine first!]] |
| 11 | * UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: We are supposed to feel bad for Ben but his wangst and jerkassery makes one feel bad for the dad more than Ben. |
| 12 | * {{Wangst}}: After David stops Victoria from drinking the punch thinking that Roscoe might have peed in it, Ben hates him again and tries to go to the bus stop so he can go live with his mother. |
| 13 | * TheWoobie: David, especially with this line: |
| 14 | -->'''David:''' But I'm the town hero... |
