* The sweet ending in "Chupacabras" where Chuy finds a home at a goat farm is somewhat undercut by the knowledge that not only will the same problem with his goat-eating spree start all over again, but he'll also bleed those poor goat farmers dry by eating their livelihood.

\n* In "Return of the Titan'': Frida seeming to be more horrified at the Titanium Titan calling her lame than him planning to kill Manny again may be her usual case of SkewedPriorities, but let's remember that Frida was the first person to accept the supposedly redeemed Titan. It adds a bit of depth to her anger over him insulting her.

* Although the flashback to when Grandpapi tricked Rodolfo into riding a cactus for his tenth birthday was a one-off gag PlayedForLaughs and Rodolfo clearly loves his father, it ''does'' raise some concerns over how he was treated by him throughout his childhood.

* More FridgeSadness: While Manny and Frida's separation was hard on both of them, we mostly see the aftermath from Manny's perspective and the poor kid is sulking all by himself and has no one else to turn to besides his family. He cut ties with his only friend to protect her.

* That scene in "Mech Daddy" when Manny and Frida, impersonating Giant Robot Sanchez, narrowly save the titular robot's kids from falling to their deaths off a glacier. Imagine if Manny and Frida hadn't reached them in time. Sanchez would wake up from his "coma" to find his children gone, [[PapaWolf and likely take his fury out on Manny and Frida, and possibly Miracle City.]]

* Both this and FridgeHorror. Manny once tries offering an alternative to getting Raul off his face but Raul opts to just go with the good ol' "rip himself off'' method before Manny can even suggest his idea. Hilarity of Manny screaming in pain like a banshee aside, Raul could have figured Manny was going to suggest cutting or shaving him off which, as a sentient being made of hair, probably could have been more painful or even have done more damage to him and wasn't going to take chances. Same could apply to waxing or lasering.

* Speaking of the Titan/Tito, let's indulge a bit in the hypothetical scenario where he actually succeeds in killing Manny. Either Tito is just ''that'' blind to how devastated the person he claims to love will become if his son gets killed or goes MIA indefinitely, or the Titan ''is'' aware but either a). is so delusional that he thinks Rodolfo can move from such a loss quickly or that he can fill the void left behind or b). simply doesn't care and at worse might view it as ''punishing'' Rodolfo for daring to choose a different path in life. And if [[PapaWolf Rodolfo]] ever finds out, well, to say that he, [[MamaBear Maria,]] and Puma Loco would be on the warpath would be an understatement.

Better yet, why would they even attempt to try and recruit El Tigre knowing that he is one of their biggest enemies and that he could easily betray them...''which is what he winds up doing in both good and evil endings!''

* While it can be seen as humorous that Rodolfo would implement "The Nutcracker" into his fighting program (especially since he requires a tutu and headband be worn during that portion), it's actually not too out there since ballet can help improve strength, agility, and coordination. It's part of the reason why some athletes opt to take lessons in order to sharpen their skills, especially in the case of dodging hits/tackles as Manny demonstrates.

* More so Fridge Sadness than Horror, but apparently Zoe ''never'' tried to make any friends outside of Manny after he left her for Frida...and this was back in preschool/kindergarten which is a time period that not everyone remembers clearly. Did she just seclude herself because of her villainous mindset, or just how badly did him leaving affect her as a child and why?

* What bugs me is when, in The Thing That Ate Frida's Brain, General Chapuza screams out as a flood of the sacred water is destroying all the zombies, "Why did we put our one weakness in the middle of town?" I'm sure it was intentionally {{Played For Laughs}}, but if you think about it, it makes perfect sense. They probably put the fountain in the center of town, or perhaps built the town around it, so that they could keep an eye on it and make sure that none of their enemies could get to it.

* Another one for the "Decision of Destiny" episode, notably the evil ending. Manny and Frida, among other things, rewire the education system so the entire curriculum is just students playing arcade games all day. Sounds funny and could simply go in line with the duo's interests, but it could also be possible that it is also a tactic to keep the populace uneducated and therefore more controllable.
