- Curse Cut Short: Apropos of one time when Rebecca and Greg ate pizza naked.Rebecca: That night was sick, I ate sauce off your...Greg: Yes, and that burned!

Tropes
- The Bus Came Back: For Greg, appearing for the first time in two seasons.
- Call-Back: Greg and Rebecca share a Dance of Romance as a way of making up for Greg acting like an ass at Jayma's wedding.
- Class Reunion: Josh's class (including Valencia, White Josh, Hector, Father Brah, and...Greg! And...George, from Whitefeather!) has their ten-year reunion in this episode (they graduated twelve years ago, but Hector was the senior class president and isn't great on follow-through).
- Cue the Flying Pigs: At one point Rebecca proclaims that the only way she could accept her and Greg being meant for each other is if he was a completely different person. In walks Greg played by a completely different person.
- Late to the Tragedy: Rebecca texts Paula updates about her getting reaquaited with Greg at every step of the way, however Paula is too busy studying/sleeping to see them. The episode ends with her finally checking her phone and reading all of the text messages at once.
- Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Constantly with folks mentioning "the rest of the season" and then clarify "we mean the holidays" to the "new" Greg.Hector: Yeah, Valentine's day. That's the logical end of our series...of holidays.
- The One That Got Away: Valencia and Father Brah were in love in high school, and apparently never really got over each other.
- The Other Darrin: In-Universe and how. When Greg shows up, Rebecca is the only person who seems to think there's something "different" about him while everyone else treats him as exactly the same guy.
- Plot Parallel: Both Rebecca and Valencia deal with resurfacing feelings regarding exes (Greg and Father Brah, respectively). While Valencia and Father Brah get closure, Rebecca and Greg's reunion ends on a sourer note after she confesses that she slept with his dad.
- Running Gag: Heather yelling "BART" at the bar and him immediately sliding exactly what her and Valencia need right down to them.
- Shipper on Deck: Valencia and Heather express that they're rooting for Rebecca to be with Greg.
- Shout-Out: "We're gonna Ocean's 8 this thing. Oh, no, wait, we're doing 2006 vibes tonight. We are gonna The Da Vinci Code this thing."
