* DoubleStandard: Mrs. Garrison comes down harder on Stan and Kyle as egg-parents but says nothing of Wendy and Bebe. Paralleling this, during a protest rally, the governor says that "nobody gives a fuck" about lesbians. The reaction is predictable.

* ProductDeliveryOrdeal: During the climax of the episode, Stan and Kyle aim to deliver their egg and call Ms. Garrison to tell her that they're on the way, but as they drive a car across the street they have to escape from a murderer whom Garrison hired to destroy the egg and thus sabotage their delivery.[[note]]He already succeeded in shooting at an egg Stan thought to be the one assigned to him and Kyle, but it was fake[[/note]] The murderer is shooting at them during the pursuit, and also makes some landmines in the road explode. The two boys manage to escape but, due to their wounds and overall fatigue, they pummel right after showing the now-safe egg to Ms. Garrison; the state's governor sees this as proof that gay couples ''can'' raise a family and thus approves gay marriage.
