* MustStateIfYoureACop: In TheTag, Pops needs a fake I.D. to state he's ''under'' 60, and the guy making them not only says this, but also states that he gets to keep the badge for a year if Pops is lying.
* SelectiveObliviousness: Pops tells Beverly that a mixtape was obviously not a gift meant for a mother and that she's been acting too clingy towards Adam. As a result, she feels so apologetic that she then interprets Pops repeatedly stating "DON'T interfere" with Adam's love life as "DO interfere", though thankfully it all ends well.

* WrongAssumption: The A Plot starts with Beverly, nostalgic for the days when her children would show their love with gifts, assumes that a mixtape Adam made for his "special someone" is herself instead of the far more obvious option of his girlfriend. Adam's too afraid of upsetting her to state the truth, so he just makes a second mixtape, which inevitably leads to trouble when Beverly plays her tape while escorting them to the theater.

** DiggingYourselfDeeper: Adam finds himself unable to just be honest with Dana after the mixtape incident, so he tries to apologize with a ''second'' mixtape with a personalized case. When Dana turns it down, he later tries to apologize to Beverly with the same tape, who ''also'' ends up even more upset than before when she sees him hiding said case.
* LoveTriangle: An odd version, in that both Dana (girlfriend) and Beverly (mother) are upset that they aren't Adam's special someone.
