* CallForward: Red talking about a friend, during a flashback to TheFifties:
-->'''Red:''' You know, the truth is, Frank's getting on my nerves a little bit. He's kind of, he's an ass. And he's dumb. He's... a '''dumbass'''!
* ThePermanentRecord: The gang sneaks into their old elementary school, which burned down years ago, for some Halloween hi-jinks, but decide to leave soon after because they're not having any fun. Just as they're about to go, Jackie and Donna rejoin the others and show off some file folders from the principal's office containing their permanent records. When they open Hyde's file, they read a note from his second grade teacher that he's a born trouble maker after he lied about smashing another student's project, to which he still insists he didn't do. Just then, Eric admits to smashing the project because he was jealous, and Hyde then gets angry at Eric and blames him for getting yelled at in front of the class, and Eric's the reason he's been treated like a criminal ever since. When Hyde opens Jackie's file he tells everyone [[EmbarrassingMiddleName her middle name is Beulah]], and finally they all turn on Kelso for lying about his age. He got held back and was now 18, and could have legally bought them beer. He didn't bring it up at all (the rest of the gang are 17, and the legal drinking age in Wisconsin at the time was 18). Finally, they decide to make peace and [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain agree to forget the night's events]] and bury the records since they figured they couldn't be burned.
* SweetTooth: Fez, after he learns what trick-or-treating is:
