- Be Careful What You Wish For: Zig-zagged, Dan plots to ruin the wedding in order to get Hortence back, only for that to utterly fail, but when he isn't trying to ruin the wedding, he succeeds in ruining it, but either way, does not wind up with Hortence.
- The Bus Came Back: Both Hortence and Jeremiah Burger from the episode "Dan vs. Burgerphile" return in this episode.

- Curse Cut Short: When Elise is dragging Dan out of the passenger seat, he screams "Get off me you filthy wh-!"
- Entitled to Have You: Dan claims Hortence can't be happy with Jeremiah because "she's supposed to be with me."
- Fat Bastard: Averted with Jeremiah Burger. He's genuinely in love with Hortence and only had Dan thrown out of the wedding rehearsal because he was making a scene.
- He also doesn't take credit for Dan's sky-writing when Hortence thinks it was his idea.
- Genius Ditz: Hortence, who earlier mistook Latin for French, shows she's a professional businesswoman here.

- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Subverted. While Dan does eventually let Hortense go, he plans to get back together with her when Jeremiah Burger dies.
