* NiceJobBreakingItHero: If Del wasn’t such a “thoughtful bitch” by sending a happy birthday text to her twin moronic brothers, they would have grown a backbone and beat up their father. They were clearly tired of being pushed around and mocked by their father and their shared birthday was giving them motivation to stand-up for themselves. Once she sent that text, they cooled off and went right back to following their father. [[spoiler: It would have stopped them from catching up to Wayne and Del in the last episode.]]

* TookALevelInJerkass: Del's father wasn't always a Jerkass if the flashback has shown.

* PoliceAreUseless: Subverted with Sgt. Gellar. At first it looks like he is a clueless cop who will blow off the case. However, we then find out that he is a very skilled investigator who was being distracted by a potential cancer diagnosis. Once he finds out that he does not have cancer, he tries to make up for his previous inaction. He figures out that Cole's dog was poisoned and then uses his vacation time to go after Wayne because he does not want Wayne to ruin his life.
