Added DiffLines:

* HardTruthAesop: Personal improvement takes effort and something you have to strive for every day, even [[BeingGoodSucks if that day sucks because you were trying to do the right thing]]. Eleanor got burned out over a lack of progress, Chidi found that affirmative decisions can still backfire, Tahani couldn't [[CelebrityIsOverrated completely shake her celebrity appeal]] and Jason tried to go legitimate before running out of money and turning back to crime.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: An air conditioner nearly falls on Chidi's head because he's being ridiculously indecisive. He takes it as a sign from the universe that he should stop using air conditioners.

* LandDownUnder: Most of the episode takes place in Australia, as evidenced by the Australian accents of several supporting cast members, the Australian flag in Chidi's office... and the jars of vegemite on the muffin cart.

* LiteralMetaphor: Judging by the Door Man's tone when he mentioned that, on Earth, Michael would need to "take a bus", he didn't really mean it entirely literally and was more so using it just as a way to signify that Michael won't be able to use magic to get around. Michael, however, being IntriguedByHumanity, takes the Door Man's statement at 100% face value, and is ''ecstatic'' about having to ride a bus, and starts getting giddy about what seat he'll ride in.

** Tahani went on an excursion to a Buddhist temple to learn to live without constant validation, and then wrote a book about it with a massive press conference and publicity tour. Michaels' method of pointing her towards Chidi's experiment was to play a marketing guy complimenting the merchandizing opportunities.
