* After defeating the Mayor, Dog Man ends up taking her to "Mayor Jail". At first glance, this might seem like a cute gag...until you wonder why they need a jail specifically for mayors. How many [[CorruptBureaucrat Corrupt Bureaucrats]] has this city had?
%% ** FridgeBrilliance: Unless you remember the gag from ''[[ShowWithinAShow Terrifying Tale of the Tattle-Tron 2000]]'' where Melvin (as mayor) arrested so many people that they had to build, in addition to men's and women's prison and Juvie, a "baby jail," a "dog jail," a "frog jail," and many more, with Melvin himself ultimately ending up in the "Jail for dumb nerds" in that book. Then in the next comic (''War of the Wily Wonder Nerd'') where he's also the villain, he ends up in the "Jail for dumb [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment stupid]] nerds." In other words, all those extra, empty, oddly-specific jails may be a permanent characteristic of George and Harold's comic universe.
* The intro chapter of ''For Whom the Ball Rolls'' reveals that Harold helped co-write this story. Then you see Petey’s character arc of this story, which specifically is about his father, who abandoned him when he was young, coming back into his life and [[AbusiveParents treating him horribly]]. This is definitely a Fridge Tearjerker when you know Harold’s [[DisappearedDad backstory]] as revealed in the 9th ''Literature/CaptainUnderpants'' book, but this quickly turns to Fridge Horror when you reach the scene of Petey’s dad “accidentally” smashing dinner plates all over the place as Petey and Lil’ Petey cower in fear. ''Did Harold just subtly imply that '''his''' father was physically abusive?''

Actually, looks like this fridge page isn't connected to the Dog Man redirect pages, so I guess there's no need for disambiguation.
