* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: When Ross stubbornly pressures Phoebe to change her views, she asks him why he can't be tolerant. When he admits there are other possibilities (''not'' that he agrees with them, just that there's a miniscule chance they're true), she gloatingly claims that [[{{Gaslighting}} he's abandoned his entire belief system]] because of her charisma. During the episode, both of them have scenes where they act like power-obsessed fanatics.

* ShadowArchetype: Mr. Heckles was a well-liked guy dubbed hilarious by his peers, had a fair number of hobbies, and no shortage of dating opportunities. He ended up bitter and alone, due in large part to MinorFlawMajorBreakup. Chandler is horrified to see so much of himself in Mr. Heckles and fears he will end up the exact same way, though he is ultimately convinced that he can instead learn from this and make a better life for himself.

He resolves to try to move past this and goes on a date with a woman he previously claimed had a big head, although his thoughts demonstrate it still really bothers him.
