* In the flashback of Ken trying to escape a deranged Juanita (a continuation of the end of "Mom's Not Nuts", only with Frances Fisher as Juanita instead of Christine Esterbrook), he yells at a cop to slap the cuffs on her.

Ken looks on in horror as the cop cleared the lights, then [[InLoveWithYourCarnage comments on how hot Juanita is for doing that]].

* The extended reveal when Titus calls out for "Pudding" to man up and admit to harassing Erin. First up is Jim, who admits to Erin's pens. Then Bobby pipes up about intentionally dropping change so that [[EatingTheEyeCandy Erin will pick it up]]; he spent $45 in one ''month''. Finally is an accountant who Erin doesn't even recognize but intentionally bumps into her when she goes to the bathroom; [[TooMuchInformation she'd gone twice that day]]. And she wasn't aware of ''any'' of it. And then comes in Erin's ''female'' coworker who was the actual harasser, as she thought [[MistakenForGay Erin was a lesbian]].

* How much does Titus need quiet while working? Erin dropping cotton balls in another room sets him off. And he can hear Erin mouthing "I'm sorry." Which sets him off again.
