- Love Dodecahedron: As in the original game. Daniel is married to Mary-Sue, but is cheating on her with Kaylynn. Kaylynn has a relationship with Don Lothario, who is engaged to Cassandra Goth, while also cheating on her with Nina Caliente. He also has a crush on Nina's sister Dina, who is in love with Cassandra's elderly father, Mortimer. To top it off, Darren Dreamer is in love with Cassandra.

- Meaningful Name: Angela and Lilith are "angel" and "demon" respectively.
- Official Couple: Angela/Dustin and Lilith/Dirk, as in the game.
