* CrossesTheLineTwice: Bill shuffling around all of Preston's facial orifices? Terrifying. Preston being TooDumbToLive being the reason ''why'' Billy did that in the first place? Hilarious.



* KarmicOverkill: Bill shuffling around the orifices of Preston's face. Granted, while Preston does deserve it for being an [[AbusiveParents abusive]] JerkAss [[AbusiveParents towards his daughter]], many fans felt that getting his face rearranged was more disturbing and cruel than cathartic.

* HarsherInHindsight: Louis CK repeatedly asking people to "get in my mouth" got a lot less funny when he admitted to several cases of sexual harassment a couple years later. Alex Hirsch went so far as to dub the lines himself for syndication.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Preston Northwest seemed quite willing to be one of Bill's "horsemen of the apocalypse." Is he just trying to manipulate Bill like he has the other citizens of Gravity Falls, or just wants to join what he thinks is the winning side, or is he even worse than the AbusiveParent we've seen and actually wants the apocalypse to happen?

** Pacifica gets a tiny but significant moment, when after calling out her father for sucking up to Bill she witnesses Preston Northwest undergoing FacialHorror. Preston might have deserved such a fate for being a ConsummateLiar, MagnificentBastard and an [[AbusiveParents Abusive Parent,]] but Pacifica did ''not'' deserve to witness the only father she has suffer a FateWorseThanDeath.

* TheWoobie: Dipper goes through a TraumaCongaLine in this episode; not only does the world end and Mabel is missing, but [[spoiler: Bill turns Ford into gold before his eyes, burns the journals, and sets two hungry demons on him.]] Three days later, he's starving and alone, having failed to find [[spoiler: Grunkle Stan or Mabel]]. If not for Wendy encouraging him, he would've crossed the DespairEventHorizon and admit that Bill's won.
