Tropes
- Bait-and-Switch: Betty claims that when Violet got lost she was frantically looking for her. Flashback shows her running around asking for help... because a woman took all the Uggs boots.
- Crappy Holidays: Played with. The microwave breaks down in the middle of the Harts’ Thanksgiving dinner, but it’s a tradition for them to speed through dinner in favor of Black Friday.
- Hollywood Magnetism: When Wayne tries to fix the microwave, it ends up becoming magnetized, and all the cutlery flies into it.
- I Was Quite a Fashion Victim: Jenny, taking inspiration from Britney Spears in the late 2000’s, is seen wearing a fedora with a velour tracksuit and heels.
- Line-of-Sight Alias: The alias that Betty gives herself is “Pantene Pert-Clairol”
- Meet Cute: Sparks flew between Wayne and Jenny after the former returned Violet in the middle of the Black Friday chaos.
- Noodle Incident: It’s never specified what happened when Betty and Crystalynn show up for church in identical all pink Ugg outfits.
- Retail Riot: Black Friday at Mega-Lo-Mart is this every year.
- Rivals Team Up: Betty and Crystalynn call a truce and work together so they can get a pair of pink Ugg boots each from a Mary Kay saleswoman with two carts full of them.
- Running Gag: Randy getting pinned.
- Strange Minds Think Alike: Betty and Crystalynne both keep mispronouncing “Uggs”.
- Thanksgiving Episode: The episode takes place during Thanksgiving, but the focus is on the Harts recalling the Black Friday a decade before.
