* ThermostatTamperTantrum: Oscar and Emma get a new digital thermostat, and having an actual number on display rather than a more ambiguous dial causes them to debate what is considered room temperature. Oscar thinks room temperature is 70 °F, and setting it any higher causes him to act like he's about to die of heat stroke. Emma thinks room temperature is 72, and setting it any lower causes her to act like she's about to die of hypothermia. On Lacey's suggestion, they resolve the issue by switching the thermostat display to 20 °C because neither of them knows the exact conversion.

* ExactWords: Lacey tries to make up for offending Emma by helping with the thermostat, thinking the insult will reflect negatively on her driving test. Emma assures her that "I'd never let my personal feelings affect the outcome of the test". WhipPan to the results of the test:
-->'''Lacey:''' I failed?! But I fixed your thermostat!\\
'''Emma:''' I ''told'' you I'd never let my personal feelings affect the outcome of the test.

* SeriousBusiness: Emma and Oscar get into a knock-down drag-out war over a temperature difference of ''two degrees''. Oscar thinks room temperature is 70°F, Emma thinks it's 72. When the thermostat is set to 70, Emma acts like she's freezing to death. When it's set to 72, Oscar acts like he's about to have a heat stroke. Hank sets it to 71, hoping this will placate both of them, but it only results in both Emma freezing ''and'' Oscar sweltering. Eventually Hank and Lacey fix things by setting it to 20°C, "approximately room temperature". Since neither Oscar nor Emma is willing to do the conversion, they're finally both happy.
