* RelativeError: Jake calls to cancel a date with Abby, citing his daughter's birthday, so Abby goes to a disco with her sister and brother-in-law, where they see Jake dancing with a pretty young girl. Abby gives Jake the cold shoulder, but later learns that the pretty young girl is actually Jake's daughter when she sees her at her son's high school graduation.
* TitleDrop: When the families go out for Chinese food, one of the kids notices that because they are a large group, they get something extra: "With six you get eggroll!"
* YouAnsweredYourOwnQuestion: Flip asking how much sixteen-penny nails are sounds like this, but the term actually refers to the size, not price, of the nail.
