7* AgeGapRomance: With Palmer and every other girl he seduced with his wedding ring play.
8* BunnyEarsLawyer: Danny constantly lies to women to get them in bed and has quite an inappropriate sense of humor, but he still makes lots of money as one of L.A's top plastic surgeons. He claims to have received his doctorate [[AwesomeButImpractical without ever reading a book]].
9* GagNose: Creator/{{Adam Sandler}} wore a gag nose at the beginning of the film to portray what Danny's nose looked like before his nose job.
10* KavorkaMan: Sandler isn't ugly, but this movie is one of the best examples of his UglyGuyHotWife shenanigans in that both Creator/BrooklynDecker ''and'' Creator/JenniferAniston are thirsting after him. Even before this, he receives an opening montage of hooking up with girls out of his league.
11* OpportunisticBastard: Danny is mostly portrayed as this as the beginning of the film, as he sees hot woman and an opportunity to sleep with them by lying to them.
12* UglyGuyHotWife: With Katherine by the movie's end.

24* AdrenalineMakeover: At the beginning of the movie, she is just a plain assistant that doesn't take much interest in her appearance. But when Danny takes her on a mission to act as his ex-wife, she has a major makeover that reveals that she looks super hot.
25* AllWomenLoveShoes: Katherine is shopping for expensive shoes with Danny and is amazed at how beautiful they are. She then threatens Danny that she won't play as his ex-wife if he doesn't get her the shoes, and she ends up getting two pairs.
26* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Katherine's hair used to be quite dull and worn up in a simple ponytail, but when she gets a new haircut she is more confident in playing the role as Danny's hot ex-wife.
27* LettingHerHairDown: Katherine used to always wear her hair up in a simple ponytail, but after her makeover she proudly wears her hair down, showcasing her new haircut.
28* MakeoverMontage: You see her shopping for new clothes with Danny and getting a new hairstyle.
29* ObliviouslyBeautiful: When she was Danny's assistant she never tried to look beautiful and just wore plain clothes and glasses that didn't show off her beauty. Even when she gets a makeover and her true beauty is revealed, she still compares herself to Palmer saying that she will never be as pretty as her.

41* AgeGapRomance: Plenty of jokes are made at the fact that she's noticeably younger than Danny.
42* DarkAndTroubledPast: Downplayed, but Palmer's parents divorced due to adultery, and the way she talks about it when she thinks that her boyfriend is married and that she is TheMistress indicates that it hurt her deeply.
43* DistractedByTheSexy: A young boy gets distracted by her sexiness at a party, and he trips over and hurts his knee.
44* DumbBlonde: PlayedWith. Despite her status as a teacher, Palmer's key personality trait is that she is incredibly gullible. The lies she absorbs stretch to such ridiculous levels that it takes her beyond naivety and into this territory.
45* EveryoneLovesBlondes: Basically all the characters think Palmer is exceptionally beautiful, everyone seems to love her personality and looks.
46* FriendToAllChildren: She's a sixth grade math teacher and insists on meeting Danny's kids immediately upon believing he has some.
47* NiceGirl: She is a genuinely kind and empathic young woman that trusts people easily and wants everyone to get along for the sake of the children and isn't even mad when she realizes her fiancé is in love with someone else, encouraging them to be together.
48* GoodStepmother: Downplayed. While unaware that the kids aren't really her boyfriend's, she is incredibly sweet to them and not only wants to bond with them but for Danny to do so as well, going as far as to get mad at him when it seems like he neglects them.
49* HotTeacher: Palmer is a math teacher, and everyone in the movie thinks of her as hot.
50* InformedAbility: She claims that she can always tell when people are lying, doing so with Danny in her first scene. That itself must have been a lie, considering hw easily she swallows Danny and the rest of the group's {{blatant lies}}.
51* InformedAttractiveness: The audience is often informed of her attractiveness:
52** A boy falls and injures himself because he is distracted by her. Danny even tells her that her hotness pushed him down the stairs.
53* MsFanservice: Gets a lot of {{Fanservice}}y scenes, such as a SexySurfacingShot of her walking out of the ocean in a bikini and a ToplessnessFromTheBack scene when she drops her ModestyTowel to lure Danny into a ShowerOfLove.
54* SuperGullible: Played for laughs, as she takes practically everything said to her at face value with no reservations whatsoever.
55* WalkingSwimsuitScene: She is seen often in a bikini.
