  • "Tag! You're it!"
  • The doctor's measured reprimand to Teddy for blowing up his car. He points out he loved the car but sounds more like an exasperated parent whose child broke something.
  • Although the scene itself is very dark, the flashback of Teddy and Dolores contains a brief one. He asks where the children are and she says they're in school. He says "Honey, it's Saturday" in a tone that says "we've been over this before."
  • One retroactive bit thanks to The Reveal. When asking Mrs. Kearns about Dr. Sheehan, she says he's handsome. Cut to a shot of Chuck - who is really Dr. Sheehan - grinning and looking flattered.
    • Mrs. Kearns is Affably Evil, immediately cheerfully saying she shouldn't be let out of the hospital. When she confesses that she murdered her husband, Chuck says "maybe you shouldn't get out."
