!!This film contains examples of:
* LadyDrunk: Suzanne is an alcoholic older woman that has a bit of a bitter, misanthropic personality (through that's less the alcohol and more because of Alex's philandering) that showcases how much of a BigScrewedUpFamily Alex has.
* TheMistress: Gabriela is Alex's Cuban mistress.
* ShaggyDogStory: [[spoiler: After all the troubles he got himself in to get the necklace, Alex, after getting severely injured in a fight with Jason and with an ambulance on the way, has no choice but to dispose of the evidence and throws the necklace into the ocean.]]
