*CrossesTheLineTwice: The episode opens with Peter and his friends watching a ParodyCommercial about the Rat Pack singing [[ValuesDissonance offensive-sounding songs]] like "Drunk Old Injun," "Jewish Nose,"[[note]]which would have been offensive even by 1960s standards,[[/note]] "Chinaman's Chance," and "Hey There, Fruity." They all have lyrics so over-the-top offensive they can come off as hilarious, [[MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales even for the people the Rat Pack supposedly made fun of]].



* TakeThatScrappy: For those who hate Brian, Quagmire laying into all of his negative traits was very satifsying.

* HarsherInHindsight: Upon its airing, a lot of fans who were getting sick of Brian were thrilled to see Quagmire put him in his place. However, once it became a running theme for Quagmire to take out his anger on Brian for any reason he could find, the scene became less cathartic and more like the start of Quagmire becoming just as unlikable.

* BrokenBase: Was Quagmire's speech about how awful Brian is well-deserved (considering Brian's character change and the audience reaction to it) or is Quagmire being a hypocrite (since Quagmire isn't any better when it comes to women, especially since his losing Cheryl Tiegs was entirely his fault and the early episodes show that he hit on Lois more than Brian did) and the writers were just scrambling for a reason why Quagmire would hate Brian and decided to tap into the audience hatred as a cheap way to tell viewers that they hate how Brian turned out?

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Some cable guides have the plot down as Quagmire being antagonistic around Jerome, when really it's Peter who's jealous of Jerome, since he was one of Lois' many lovers back when she was a sexually promiscuous party girl. Quagmire's anger in this episode is centered on Brian.
