6!!Tropes in this film include:
7* DinnerAndAShow: The dinner with Jenna's parents when she announces that she and Michael are expecting. Her dad manages to say that a baby isn't supposed to be the first "big thing" and in a toast only acknowledges Michael as "the young man who's responsible". Jenna's mother is also (barely) keeping up a saccharine facade, Jenna herself is twitching and Michael is chuckling nervously. Overall, one can cut the tension with a knife.
8* EarnYourHappyEnding: Michael stops seeing Kim and takes Stephen's advice on reaffirming his relationship with Jenna. Jenna eventually opens back up to him and they begin making amends.
9* GetOut: After confronting Michael about him cheating on her with Kim, Jenna kicks him out. When he continues to argue with her, she reiterates her point with a kitchen knife.
10* OohMeAccentsSlipping: If you listen closely, Jacinda Barrett's Australian accent slips [[SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct when she gets mad as Jenna]].
11* WhatTheHellHero: Jenna rips into Michael when she learns that he's been cheating on her.
