* IncestStandardsAreRelative: Garrett and his bride Stacey discover -- ''at the wedding'' no less -- that they're actually [[KissingCousins second cousins]]. Everyone present, themselves included, initially treat this as a dealbreaker (despite the fact that second-cousin marriage is perfectly legal, even in states where first-cousin marriage isn't), though they do ultimately decide to go through with it anyway. The episode ends with a [[AuthorFilibuster monologue]] by the (supposed) writer about [[DiscussedTrope the moral and ethical issues]] surrounding cousin marriage and the inconsistent US laws regarding it, a matter which seems to be of personal concern to him (it's all but outright stated that he's sleeping with his own cousin).

* OutOfFocus: Abed's presence in this episode is limited to [[FramingDevice being behind the documentary camera]], only occasionally chiming in when appropriate. This is because Creator/DannyPudi [[RealLifeWritesThePlot wasn't actually on-set due to committing to another project]], limiting him to providing voiceover for when it was needed.

-->"I learned the cheat code: White people like encouragement. It really doesn't matter what for. I never felt like a sellout. I never laughed at anything unfunny, never said anything untrue. The thing is — and this ''will'' sound racist — white people are very discouraged, and very discouraging to each other. So, the day you start telling them 'Hey! Just do what you're doing!', you feel like a superhero!"

* ArtisticLicenseLaw: A very mild example. Garrett mentions that cousin marriage is legal in the state of Colorado, which is true, but not actually relevant to their situation. He and Stacey are actually ''second'' cousins. Marriage between second cousins is allowed everywhere in the US, and in most jurisdictions globally (and is historically pretty common). It's unsurprising that they'd be a bit squicked out by the idea, but there are no legal obstacles, no matter where they live.
