* LaserGuidedKarma: After spending the first act evading punishment behind her "mother's" back, Snowdrop (really Bingo) truly gets her just desserts once her mother (Bluey) learns how spoiled and cheeky her 'favorite' child really is. What follows is a montage of Bluey's character being strict with Bingo's character, no matter how hard the latter tries to butter the former up.

* AnAesop:
** Good parents '''''don't''''' play favorites.
** Good parents also accept their children's flaws and all, no matter who's apparently the "better" child.
** If you want your kids to have certain skills, be a role model for those skills.



* ParentalFavoritism: Deconstructed. Bluey (as the mom in the game) makes no efforts to hide that she favors Bingo (her younger child "Snowdrop") over Bandit (her eldest child "Diddums"), under the mistaken impression that they're respectively the Golden Child and the bad child. This deeply hurts Diddums. Later, Bluey apologizes to Diddums about calling Snowdrop her favorite, and refrains from calling Diddums her favorite when Snowdrop misbehaves some more. The [[AnAesop takeaway]] here is that it's ''wrong'' to play favorites with your child, no matter which one is 'good' or 'bad'.

* MoodWhiplash: During the heartwarming scene where Bluey and Bandit hug each other with touching music playing, the music quickly stops and shows a woman picking up toilet paper and looking at the two weirdly. (You'd think she never saw a father hug his daughter before)

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Downplayed. While Bingo's persona Snowdrop isn't malicious so much as they are "cheeky", she lives up to the concept of the trope pretty well. When it's just her and her "brother" Diddums (Bandit), she's the cheekiest toddler there's ever been. She's only sweet and well-behaved when her "mother" (Bluey) is around. It's only towards the end that 'Snowdrop' shows her true colors.

* [[HeelRealization Heeler Realization]]: Bluey realizes the error of her ways when Snowdrop (Bingo) is naughty to her despite earlier being deemed the "good child". This leads her to understand how unfair it was to label Diddums (Bandit) the "bad child" and "unfavorite".
* {{Irony}}: In their make-believe game, Bluey (the mom) deems Bandit (Diddums) the "cheeky child" while Bingo (Snowdrop) is glorified as the golden child. She couldn't be further from the truth: "Diddums" is just trying his best to behave himself, but gets blamed for all of "Snowdrop's" cheekiness.
* KickTheDog: Bluey truly cuts Bandit to the quick when in her pretend game, she declares that her pretend daughter Snowdrop is the "favorite".
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Usually, outside of his daughters games, Bandit takes their narrative in stride. But when Bluey (playing the mum) tells Bandit (her son) that Bingo (her other child) is her "favorite", it ''really'' hurts Bandit's feelings. So much so that, when a store employee wonders if he's okay, out-of-character, Bandit gives a genuinely despondent response.
* ParentsAsPeople: Bluey becomes the subject of this when she [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter wrongfully judges]] "Snowdrop" as the well-behaved golden child and hurtfully deems "Diddums" as the [[TheUnfavorite cheeky child]]. After she realizes she made a mistake, she takes the time to apologize to Diddums and lets it be known that despite what they said earlier, she still loves her child.
* TheUnfavorite: Bandit's character Diddums has the misfortune of being labeled this by his mother Bluey.
