* IgnorantAboutFire: Given the episode's plot, there are quite a few examples:
** Petunia talks on the phone while leaning on the lit stove, [[AttackTheTail setting her tail ablaze.]] Giggles throws a tablecloth on her to extinguish her, which works for a second, but then [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome the]] ''[[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome tablecloth]]'' [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome catches fire too]] (as does Giggles).
** After Giggles and Petunia are [[ManOnFire set alight]], Mime tries to call the fire department, but forgets the last number to 911. When he finally remembers, he tries to ''mime'' what's going on over the phone. Naturally, Lumpy (who is on the other end) can't understand him.
** [[BlindMistake The Mole]] accidentally hooks the hose up to the fire truck's gas tank, causing gasoline to spurt out and the fire gets even worse. Justified, though, given his blindness.
** At the end, the Mole lights a match, unaware of the gas leak, which makes the town explode.
* ImAHumanitarian: There have been several instances where the characters have accidentally eaten someone's organs or blood.



** It's worth noting that this episode has 3rd highest amount of deaths (Tied with "Aw Shucks!") in an episode. (Beaten by "Class Act" and "Wrath of Con")
* ThrowTheDogABone: Mime survives.
