* How easily the Scott-Knives-Ramona love triangle is handled. Apparently, a temporal kidnapping really helps avoid a lot of drama:
-->'''Scott:''' And maybe this isn't the best time to have this realization, but I probably shouldn't have been dating you in the first place. Apparently, a 23-year-old dating a high schooler is frowned upon by society.\\

* Old Scott started a band with the Old Katayanagi Twins called "Pop'n Twinbee." What's their latest hit? A cover of ''Konya Wa Hurricane'' from the original ''Anime/BubblegumCrisis''. Will Forte as Old Scott singing ''Konya Wa Hurricane'' is a thing that now happened.

* Even Older Scott kidnaps everyone from the show and explains how he spent ten years training to fight everyone. Scott and Ramona flatly say that he basically hid in his house for ten years. Even Older Scott is rather put out.



* Ramona gives all the Exes weapons from her hammerspace bag. Todd's is... broccoli. Apparently all he needs to get his vegan powers back is ''one'' vegan meal.
* In the epilogue, Lucas Lee is working at the coffee shop with FlairBartending. Kim says "whatever" to him, and he [[PairTheSpares blushes]].

-->'''Young Neil:''' I don't remember writing that part...
* The documentary crew asks how Ramona feels about the whole film, and her role as a stunt double for an actress playing her. Ramona calmly says she doesn't care, because she's just here to get close to Todd to find out if he kidnapped Scott and faked his death with a vegan portal. She doesn't notice that the film crew has stopped walking.
-->'''Cameraman:''' Uh, what?



* Envy tries to fight Wallace... and he immediately summons his four stunt doubles. Despite having originally been a minor character with no fight scenes.
-->'''Envy:''' How do you have so many stunt doubles!?\\
'''Wallace:''' It's in my contract. You should get a better lawyer.
* Envy grabs her stunt double to fight Wallace's stunt doubles, despite Ramona being in the middle of an interview. The documentary crew comes along, and they're very confused when the announcer calls out the fight.
-->'''Cameraman:''' ''Who said that!?''\\
'''Announcer:''' Uh, nobody!
* During the fight, Ramona is very confused as to what scene requires her to fight four copies of Wallace.
* Ramona makes a great showing against the stunt doubles... but what actually defeats them is Wallace constantly heckling them from the sidelines.
-->'''Stunt Double:''' ''[openly crying]'' We can deal with the physical abuse, but not the ''emotional'' abuse!



* Matthew is a little shocked to learn that Scott is still alive, showing that despite having newfound confidence, it's still a little fragile.
