* In ''Mr. Incredible and Pals'', the moral of the InUniverse short with that name (the pilot episode of a show that never aired) was basically the opposite of [[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles the original movie]]. While the moral of ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'' was that Mr. Incredible [[IneffectualLoner was wrong to work alone]] and should accept the help of his friends and family, in ''Mr. Incredible and Pals'', Mr. Incredible, despite obstentially being part of a team, essentially works alone (Frozone is restrained early in the fight and Mr. Skipperdoo is useless), and it works out well for him as he easily defeats Lady Lightbug. It's an interesting layer to the parody that isn't immediately apparent upon viewing.
* In "Bao", the mother's dumpling son grows distant and appreciates her less and less as the story progresses. In other words, he's [[StealthPun going cold]] and becoming [[StealthPun spoiled]].
** And it's not simply there as a pun: it corresponds with [[spoiler: the mother eating her dumpling son, and the theme of letting your kids go. Just as food is meant to be eaten sooner or later, children are meant to leave the nest one day.]]



* Every time one of the volcanos in "Lava" sings, a rumbling sound is heard just prior to it. This implies that these rumblings are actually the volcano's "language".

* In ''WesternAnimation/TinToy'', a glaring one: when the baby cries after falling, no one comes. Where are the parents or whoever is supposed to be taking care of the baby?
* It has been confirmed that the story of "Lava" takes place over hundereds of millions of years, but there is nothing to suggest that volcanos experience the flow of time any differently than us. That's a long time to wait for love.
* While it's played as a joke, Syndrome's casual, unassuming attitude when telling Kari that he's her replacement shows how good he is at lying and manipulation (though considering Kari's situation, he also got ''very'' lucky).

** Given I have a dog of a breed with a very similar character, I can offer an alternate explanation: he just didn't receive enough attention, and never got to play (drawing from my dog's reaction to [[spoiler: leaving his previous master, who didn't give him enough attention: he didn't give a shit. He's otherwise an immensely friendly dog]]). Add to this the treatment he received from Alfa and the others, and you can realize he just wanted someone capable of appreciating him.
