* MediumShiftGag: When Wanda show off her newly created video game characters based on Brent and Hank, they have the real-life faces of actors Brent Butt and Fred Ewanuick, rather than animated ones. The animated characters think they look horrifying.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: The episode ends with Wanda and Brent just playing VideoGame/{{Pong}} instead of making a video game. When Brent complains that it lacks character and plot, Wanda encourages him to use his imagination, so he pictures himself as an ogre and Wanda as a dragon...in Corner Gas playing Pong. It helps.
