This episode provides examples of:
- Hypocritical Humor: Clover of all people calls out Alex on falling in love so quickly with Troy.
- Potty Emergency: A throwaway gag has Clover hoping that the Japanese hotel she and Sam are travelling to has nice bathrooms.Clover: (sitting in an odd position) That's another improvement to be added on KURT's makeover list.
- Rebuilt Pedestal: Alex is pretty devastated when she learns that Troy is just a virtual person made for the television series, rather than an actual guy. But she later falls in love again when she meets the guy who programmed Troy.
