* '''Played For Laughs''': Seamus is the story's resident archetypical nerd who would be luckier to find a copy of Action Comics #1 than he would be to score a date with a woman... but the epilogue shows that, thanks to striking rich thanks to whatever goofy gadget he was working on earlier in the film, he got everything he wanted, including having Alice as a wife.
* '''Played For Drama''':
** The relationship of Alice and Seamus is constantly on the verge of collapse, with everybody thinking that Alice is nothing more than a (future) TrophyWife for Seamus.
** Seamus is the story's resident ButtMonkey who has endured an unending barrage of humiliation and abuse throughout the whole plot and quite frankly looks by the ''middle'' of the story like he's on the verge of [[DrivenToSuicide jumping off the nearest bridge]]. Getting Alice as a date is the universe's way of telling him that they are burying the hatchet.
