!!This film exhibits the following tropes:
* AdultFear: It's difficult enough for parents to leave their children with a stranger, but when you find out that the person who showed up was not the person you hired...
* ChekhovsGun: Howie's fireworks.
* EmbarrassingBrowserHistory: In the course of discussing that they may need to have "The Talk" with Jacob, Dan comments that their son has an "interesting" browser history.
* HarmfulToMinors: Emelie declares that they're going to watch a movie. She pops in a sex tape featuring their father...
* ItWorksBetterWithBullets: Emelie arranges for the children to find their father's gun. Christopher being willing to pull the trigger (albeit thinking it's a toy, and emulating a TV Character) convinces her that he's her "cubby". In a subsequent scene, she reloads the gun with the bullets she removed.
* NoPeriodsPeriod: Averted. Emelie has Jacob fetch her a tampon and inserts it in front of him. Afterwards, the camera shot shows the blood being flushed down the toilet.
* SurpriseCarCrash: Dan and Joyce decide to take a cab home. Emelie phones her accomplice to say that she needs more time. Cue the Thompsons' conversation in the back of the car getting interrupted by a car smashing into them.
* VorpalPillow: Emelie attempts to suffocate Jacob with a pillow, only to realize he's no longer in the bed.
* WouldHurtAChild: Emelie slaps Jacob, tries to smother him, and is implied to have attacked Jacob's friend, Howie.
