* EmbarrassinglyDresslikeOutfit: A third-party variant; Scrooge, at this point a poor Scottish immigrant, draws the attention of a policeman, who objects to his wearing a skirt in public. ("It's a ''kilt''!") However, when Scrooge's case goes to trial, it turns out that the ''judge'' is Scottish (and is also wearing a kilt). Offended, he sentences the policeman to wear an actual skirt for thirty days.

* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: When Scrooge first arrived in America, a policeman wrote him up for wearing a kilt in public, mistaking it for a skirt. Fortunately for Scrooge, a Scottish judge heard the case and took so much offense that he sentenced the officer to wear a kilt for thirty days.
