* InstantTasteAddiction: Lacey gifts the Leroys expensive foods that they become addicted to (fancy wine for Oscar and Emma, marmalade for Brent), leaving them no longer able to enjoy the cheap alternatives they used to like. They plot a revenge brunch to get her addicted to other expensive foods in turn, but Lacey shows up after they've already eaten everything and all they have to serve her is some leftover meatloaf from a previous meal. Lacey becomes addicted to the meatloaf, which is the cheapest, easiest thing they know how to make. Hank then tries to gift the Leroys some expensive chocolate, since he heard they've been into fancy food lately, [[WeAreNotGoingThroughThatAgain but they refuse the gift because they don't want to become addicted to the chocolate too]].

* IDoNotLikeGreenEggsAndHam: Courtesy of Lacey, the Leroys get hooked on various expensive food that they initially claim not to enjoy before trying it. They also get "bumped up to a new bracket" on types of food they already enjoyed by trying a more expensive version and being unable to go back to the cheaper stuff. Bemoaning the high cost of feeding their new cravings, they plot a "revenge brunch" hoping to get Lacey hooked on expensive food in return, but end up getting her hooked on Emma's meatloaf instead: the cheapest, easiest thing they know how to make.
