Added DiffLines:

* CallBack: Woody (in Nell's body) turns on Nell's stereo, hears "Candle In The Wind" by Music/EltonJohn and promptly turns it off in annoyance after a few seconds. Later on, Nell (in Woody's body) tries to get Horse to listen to the same song in the car - he doesn't like it either. This is also kind of BitingTheHandHumor, because Elton John was the executive producer of the movie itself.


* YourCheatingHeart: Horse cheats on Shanelle constantly.

* BlackBestFriend: Horse, though he's a bit of a subversion since he turns out to be a JerkJock.


* CharacterDevelopment: Noticeable for both protagonists, but especially for Woody, who starts off as a major [[Jerksss jerk]] toward more people than just Nell.

Added DiffLines:

* EveryoneHasStandards: As Horse noted to Nell (in Woody's body), Woody has always been the "faithful type" when it comes to relationships whilst Horse gloats that he regularly cheats on his girlfriend. This shows that even in the past, as much of a jerk Woody was, he would never cheat on his girlfriend.

* EvilDetectingDog: Or cat, in this case. Nell's pet cat is somehow able to detect the body swap and definitely does not like Woody in Nell's body, hissing and scratching at "her" the morning after the swap.
