* IKnewIt: One of the Stan twins' name is 'Stanley'. Although, to most peoples' surprise, Stanley is not the name of the long lost twin, and rather the Stan we've known since the beginning.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Stan and Ford's mother, Caryn Romanoff Pines, seems like a nice character, saying that Stanley is her "little free spirit" with "personality", whereas her husband Filbrick favors Stanford as his "ticket" out of New Jersey. Yet the episode decides to do nothing much with her. Caryn isn't even shown to call Filbrick out on kicking Stanley out of house and home, though considering Filbrick's temper, it's unlikely she could have prevented him from kicking Stan out, let alone change the story.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Ford gets hit with this a lot for [[UngratefulBastard not even thanking Stan for saving his life]]. He was meant to be viewed as in the right for being concerned about Stan inadvertently causing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, but many fans consider him hard to sympathize with [[NoSympathyForGrudgeholders considering that he held bitterness towards Stan for decades from a mishap on his chance to get into his dream college and causing him to be trapped in another dimension for 30 years]].

What doesn't help is that [[BlamingTheVictim Ford blames Stan for the latter's poverty]] and doesn't lift a finger to alleviate it.
