Luz continues to bond with her new friends as her mother opens up to her's.
- Adaptational Early Appearance:
- Canonically, Anne's mother didn't appear until several flashbacks in Season 2, and along with Anne's father didn't appear in person until Season 3. Here, they both appear in the story's prologue, which is set before Season 1.
- Similarly, the Boonchuys' loyal customer Ned shows up in this chapter, whereas in canon he first appears in the Season 3 episode "Thai Feud".
- Commonality Connection: Camilla Noceda and Oum Boonchuy bond over their shared pasts as immigrants.
- Fire-Breathing Diner: Played with when Luz tries the green curry at Thai Go. She's able to last for an impressive amount of time before the spiciness gets to be too much for her, at which point it's noted that fire practically bursts out of her mouth and she has to quickly down multiple glasses of ice water to deal with it.
- Time Skip: A small example, as the chapter picks up a week after the previous one.
