* ButtMonkey: Mr. Mackay loses his job for passing weed around the third grade class, gets ostracized by the town, evicted by his landlord who assaults him. He then ends up homeless and after he ends up married to a hippie woman, gets beaten up and kidnapped by the A-Team and forced into rehab.
* CharacterDevelopment: Once Kyle learns that Ike is adopted, he initially shuns him until Ike shows him photos of all of the time they've spent together, then comes to Kyle for protection when he's scared. This helps Kyle embrace Ike as his brother even if they're not related by blood and it stays that way for the entire series.
