The Gang replaces Dee with a monkey as Paddy's bartender under the mistaken belief that Dee is going through menopause. Meanwhile, Dee teaches an acting class after an unsuccessful audition.
Tropes:
- The Alleged Expert: Dee, a complete failure of an actress, starts an acting class. Examples of her excellent advice include never listening and shouting as loudly as possible.
- Bad "Bad Acting": Dee deliberately gives her acting students the worst possible advice, including to make their performances excruciatingly over the top in this style.
- Bestiality Is Depraved: Mac seems into the idea that the monkey may have sexually assaulted him when he was asleep.
- Black Comedy Rape: It's implied that the monkey may have sexually assaulted the Gang after they passed out.
- The Blind Leading the Blind: Dee remains a terrible actress and woefully unqualified to teach acting.
- Casting Couch: Dee warns her students that their superiors in the acting world will "try to bang them," including herself.
- Continuity Nod: Charlie mentions the time he slept with Dee.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus: When Dennis holds up the napkin, you can see that the illiterate Charlie misspelled "yellow" as "yello."
- Global Ignorance: Charlie is surprised to learn that Pittsburgh is in Pennsylvania and doesn't believe two cities can occupy the same state.
- Charlie also seems to think that "yellow" could be the name of a place where the Gang could go on vacation.
- Greed: Dee is very insistent that her students pay her for her ludicrously bad acting classes.
- Large Ham: Dee's acting "lessons" basically amount to telling her pupils to ham it up.
- Late to the Realization: Frank, Mac, and Charlie all take quite a while to realize that Ireland is clearly the perfect place for their vacation, much to Dennis's frustration.
- Manipulative Bitch: Dee openly discusses how much she enjoys manipulating her students' emotions and insecurities to a near-abusive degree.
- Parental Incest: Dee writes a script for her students to use, in which the female lead reveals that her baby is not her boyfriend's, but her father's.
- Precision F-Strike: Frank drops an F-bomb when he observes the monkey may have performed irrumatio on them (as he put it, "The monkey may have fucked our mouths") .
- Sequel Hook: The episode ends with the Gang getting the idea to go to Ireland after Dee lands an acting gig there.
- Slipping a Mickey: The monkey turns out to be spiking the Gang's beers with whiskey in order to assault them and rob the bar.
- Strange Minds Think Alike: Mac and Charlie both write down colors as potential vacation spots.
- Suddenly Shouting: Dee invokes this in her acting class.
- Surrounded by Idiots: Dennis is not impressed that Mac and Charlie wanted to go to "purple" on vacation and that Frank backs them up.
- Teacher/Student Romance: Dee is hoping to start one by asking Tony to see her after class.
- Tempting Fate: When Dee proclaims that she will be a friend to her students, she gets a call-back to the last audition to she went to, causing her to discontinue her acting class.
- Vomit Indiscretion Shot: Charlie immediately vomits when Frank mentions the monkey "possibly fucked our mouths."
- Word-Salad Humor: When the gang wakes up the morning after their drunken brainstorming session, they see the vacation destination they wrote on their easel is "monkey beer island of green and fight".
