Tropes for the film:
- The Alleged Car: The movie has one of these. Roger purchased it for 14 dollars and a record player, leading his father to reply, "you were overcharged". It has no horn, no brakes, no paint job, coughs black smoke everywhere it goes, and becomes an Instant Convertible by the end of the film.
- Alliterative Name: Walter Whitney.
- Alliterative Title: Carbon Copy.
- Tagline: "Any resemblance between Father and Son is purely hysterical".
