** The same episode shows the after-effects of "Dan Vs. Canada" after he and Chris destroyed the glacier. while it's glossed over as quickly as it's seen? There is a ton of FridgeHorror in the fact that Dan and Chris basically committed genocide on a whole country. They still haven't recovered from the avalanche when Dan is forced to go back to Canada…

* The normally perky cruise instructor's SanitySlippage in "The Family Cruise" is also unpleasant. Elise's parents along with Elise, Dan, and Chris end up being so obnoxious and destructive that she is literally driven insane and locks them in the ship's brig to drown after Dan's meddling places the ship on an imminent course with a giant maelstrom.

* Any mention of Dan's Mom can fall under this category, as it's heavily implied she was abusive. We see the effects that she's had on his personality ("Summer Camp" hints that Dan's the way he is now because he had to learn to lash out to get any sort of attention) and even his perceptions of what a parent should be (screaming at your infant child when they're crying to get them to pipe down is in Dan's scope of good parenting.)

* Let's not forget "Dan Vs. Technology", where Dan and Chris are trapped in the woods with a creepy guy who doesn't use technology, and end up trying to escape after he gets mad at them for destroying his technology free moving picture slide show of a fat woman in a bath tub. Seriously, he's got an axe, and after miles of driving away from him in a car, he's '''still''' chasing them.
* After Chris spreads litter across the elementary school grounds, [[AxCrazy Amber comes at him with a]] ''[[AxCrazy chainsaw]]''.

** He was TERRIFYING in this episode. He knew Dan's mannerisms so well he even know when Chris would be standing where, and how Elise would react to a trap. And you can't say his plan wouldn't drive you nuts, either, having stashed phones all over Dan's apartment, and even a transmitter in his tooth to make him hear voices. DAMN.
