* CreepyChangingPainting: In "Home Not Alone" when Stella ends up usurping Macy as president of the Jonas fan club, Macy's picture is replaced with Stella's and thrown in the trash; the picture depicts Macy smiling and looking regal, but once it's thrown out, the picture shows Macy frowning.



* FakeStatic: In the episode "Home Alone", Frankie throws a {{Wild Teen Party}} while the boys' parents are on vacation. When their father calls on video chat, Joe starts making static noises in an attempt to distract him from the party and Nick even pretends that they can't hear him. [[IdiotBall Yet their father can see them making fake static noises because they are on a ''video chat''.]]

* WishFulfillment: Stella and Macy for the female audience. Stella is a beautiful, fashionable girl who is childhood friends with the brothers and grows up to be a VictoriousChildhoodFriend to Joe. Macy is an Asian [[Film/CampRock Demi Lovato]] looking {{Expy}} who is great at every sport and, despite her clumsiness around the boys, quickly becomes an AscendedFanboy and is now one of their close friends [[spoiler: plus Nick's new LoveInterest]]. It's like the writers read MarySue fanfiction.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: In "Forgetting Stella's Birthday"
--->[Hot tea is (literally) spilled on Joe]
--->Coler: Where does all of your success come from?
--->Joe: MY PANTS!
--->Coler: Don't you think you're being a little full of yourself?
** And "Home Not Alone"
--->Macy: I almost choked on a Kevin head and nobody even noticed.
** "Karaoke Surpise" after Stella catches Macy and Joe together.
--->Joe: We're doing mental math. It's like jumping jacks for the brain.
--->Stella: Well I just came to drop off these pants to go with the shirts. And now I'll go. Don't want to keep you two from adding your figures together.
** "Direct to Video" opens with a scene of the boys after a crazy night. It is ''very'' obviously a metaphor for a hangover.
---> Joe: After the fourth slice of pizza it's all just a blur.
** The full version of the theme song has the line "I drove her home and then she whispered in my ear 'the party doesn't have to end, we can dance here'", which sounds an awful lot like an invitation for sex.

** In "Groovy Movies", they forget their mother's birthday and try to make up for it by converting their childhood home videos into [=CD=]s. However, they accidentally destroy the videos by spilling cake batter on them and are forced to recreate them.
** In [[TitleDrop "Forgetting Stella's Birthday"]], they forget Stella's birthday because a band executive came to interview them on the same day and try to apologize to her by throwing a {{Slumber Party}} (something they used to do when they were little), which is also ruined due to the executive coming back to interview them again at the same time.

-->'''Joe:''' What up?

-->'''Joe:''' Well you are stuck up pretentious and totally gorgeous!!!

-->'''Joe:''' I ment adorable!!! So adorable you make me sick!!!
-->'''Stella:''' I'm sorry. But if I'm so sickenly adorable, then why did you come to the restaurant tonight?!
-->'''Joe:''' Why did you go out with Van Dike?!
-->'''Stella:''' Because he asked me!!! Isn't that how it works, Joe?! A guy asks out a girl because he likes her!!!!
-->'''Joe:''' What about a guy not asking out a girl because he likes her?! Have you ever thought of that???!!!
-->'''Stella:''' [[BigWhat What?!]]
-->'''Joe:''' I don't wanna wreck everything you and I ''don't'' have together!!!!
-->'''Stella:''' That makes absolutely no sense!!!

* SecretRelationship: Nick keeps his relationship with Macy a secret from his friends, despite Macy feeling guilty about hiding it. This benefits Big Man's Kiara when she finds out about Nick and Macy and blackmails Nick into working with her. It wasn't until Kiara gives up on the blackmail and gives Nick {{The Reason You Suck Speech}} that Nick finally reveals the secret to everyone through the song he wrote for Macy.



* ShoutOut: A whole sub-plot of an episode makes fun of the whole ''Series/CSIMiami'' meme of "witty comment, glasses, YEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!" as well as the ''CSI'' camera angles.

Macy is an Asian-American [[Film/CampRock Demi Lovato]] looking {{Expy}} who is great at every sport and, despite her clumsiness around the boys, quickly becomes an AscendedFanboy and is now one of their close friends [[spoiler: plus Nick's new LoveInterest]].
