* ContrastingSequelSetting: nature, urban landscape, less likely to follow AnAesop, having a more cynical/nihilistic tone, not one but two shorts where someone is having the [[FromBadToWorse worst day of their life]] where they ended up fired, dumped by their girlfriend and homeless.
* {{Intermission}}: got creative, [[AudienceSurrogate Filmy]], ElevatorButtonsMash, PublicDomainSoundtrack as elevator music

** Cigar has the most dramatic of the retellings, with lighter greyscale and well-detailed sketch art to boot, but the theory itself sounds like a nine-year-old who made it up on the spot. It goes as follows: Burger was with a friend named Soda Cup at the nightclub but while they partying it up, Soda got hungry so the most obvious and logical choice for them was to beat up Burger and ate his pickles. Realising what they had done, Soda ran away in tears not because they killed their best friend but because they were deadly allergic to pickles and needed to use the bathroom. His colleagues were so dumbfounded that they cut off Cigar's monologue to point out all the inconsistencies and absurdities like how did he know Burger had a friend or pickles, why said friend was stupid enough to do that and why Cigar is so obsessed about them going to the bathroom but completely ignored the broken door which never came up in the story.

-->'''Cigar:''' It... was tragedy. The story of two friends. They came to the nightclub looking for fun but his... his friend was sooooo~ hungry, he stole his pickles and ''ate them''! He ran away but not because he murdered him but because he was allergic to pickles and went to the bathroom--

-->'''Binoculars:''' Dude what?
-->'''Cigar:''' Hey, I didn't interrupt you guys did I? As I was saying--
-->'''Fountain Pen:''' Where did this guy come from? How did you know this guy had pickles? And why are we talking about him going to the bathroom?
-->'''Cigar:''' Let me finish please!

** While everyone was arguing over Cigar's idiotic theory, Burger [[NotQuiteDead turns out to be alive]] as he wakes from his prolonged nap to vividly recall the night for them. In [[StylisticSuck poorly-drawn Microsoft paint art]], what really happened was Burger walked past the nightclub when he tripped over a rock and was merely knocked unconscious by the time the cops arrived, [[StatingTheSimpleSolution simple as that]] ([[TheUnreveal Although this doesn't explain why the club's glass door was shattered in the first place]]).

* DirectorsCut: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u07IK1cAwQw remastered version]], added an extra scene

* PointyHairedBoss: Zig-Zagged. Radio is quite incompetent and often makes bad decisions such as tasking an inexperienced intern to take care of such a huge responsibility without proper guidance, without notice, something which Glass Shard acknowledges how bad of a job Radio is doing by letting, understanding gloss over, the director's cut shows her to be more sympathetic but still

* ToxicFriendInfluence: Evett is oblivious as to why Violet has been avoiding him nowadays because of their obnoxiously, loud behaviour and pranking escapades which almost put her in jail once. It's also implied that Violet moved to the city in an attempt to have a fresh start away from her since she also kept insisting they shouldn't move there as well. Of course, Evett doesn't listen and does exactly that which gave Violet a rather unwanted surprise when they unexpectedly showed up at her doorstep.
