* MoneyDumb: He's a genius in almost any area of science you can name...and he's an ''idiot'' when it comes to money. The whole reason the Edisons converted their mansion into a hotel is because he forgot to sign the royalty contract for the first game, costing the family millions of dollars in royalties and leaving them broke. He also tried to conquer the world on a shoestring budget in the first game, implying that he wasn't very good with money there either.

If Bernard reads Dr. Fred's bank book early in the game, he'll see that Fred is nearly penniless.

* FanDisservice: If you talk to Dr. Fred, you'll find out she's apparently a stripper on the side to help the Edisons with their bills...

* BrokeEpisode: The entire game functions as one. The Edisons were strapped for cash in the first game, since Dr. Fred tried to conquer the world on a budget and had to cut a lot of corners building his equipment. In this game, Dr. Fred forgot to sign a royalty contract that would've netted the family millions of dollars. The Edisons are forced to convert their mansion into a hotel to pay the bills. It doesn't seem to help much, since Bernard will see that Dr. Fred is still penniless if he looks at Fred's bank book.

* OhCrap: All three Founders react this way when Hoagie clogs up the chimney with Hancock's blanket, tricking them into thinking there's a fire, and leap out the window.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Parodied; Franklin promises to name one of his inventions after Hoagie as thanks for his help with the kite, implying that it's the origin of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_sandwich#Hoagie hoagie sandwich]], even though the term "hoagie" wasn't coined until the 1950's. [[RuleOfFunny Not that this is the only historical inaccuracy in the game.]]
* MisBlamed: When Jefferson finds the blanket on the chimney, Hoagie successfully avoids blame by pointing out that Hancock had it earlier.

* TheStoic: Washington won't let the early spring chill affect him, claiming that it's nothing compared to his experiences at Valley Forge, much to the frustration of Hancock, who's freezing his ass off and won't give up his blanket unless Hoagie gets a fire started.
