3	!!Includes examples of
4	* BittersweetEnding: Kevin gets a massive beating from Eddie Pinetti, but Winnie forgives him afterwards.
5	* CurbStompBattle: Eddie's massive beatdown of Kevin in the climatic scene, before telling him he's pathetic and walks away.
6	* EarnYourHappyEnding: Kevin has to stand up to and get beaten by Eddie before Winnie forgives him after the events from the previous episode.
7	* EasilyForgiven: Possibly. After how mad everyone was at Kevin over the things he'd previously said about them behind their backs in the previous episode, that seems to have been forgotten about by the time of this episode, with the exception of Winnie still being mad at him. In the previous episode, Paul was the only one to come close to forgiving him. But it's possible that most of them were only mad at him at the moment and soon forgave and forgot about it quickly. On the other hand, for those who haven't seen the previous episode, it's barely even mentioned why Winnie is mad at Kevin, with Winnie only briefly pointing out that one of Eddie's good qualities is that he doesn't talk about people behind their backs.
