Line 159:
'''Walt:''' [pokes head into room] Hey, guys, how's it going?
'''Jeremy:''' I ''rest'' my ''case''!! }}
*:* Jeremy takes some extreme measures to avoid parental embarrassment, to the point where when his father was still driving him to school Jeremy got out to walk the rest of the way ''at the end of their driveway.''
* Played with a twist on ''[[Sifl and Olly]]''. Olly had Sifl's mom call their show and tried to get her to tell embarrassing childhood stories about Sifl. She did... except the stories all actually ended up being about something Olly did.
* A wonderful "Revenge of the Kid" occurred in ''On the Fast Track'' when Melody was showing Laurel's baby pictures to Bob. Melody excused herself briefly; Laurel followed her out, there was the sound effect of a flash bulb and a piercing scream, and Laurel came back to hand Bob a Polaroid photo with the words, "My mother on the throne." Cue another piercing scream from out-of-frame.
* In one ''[[Peanuts]]'' arc, Snoopy and Molly Volley play mixed doubles against "Crybaby" Boobie, who complains about ''everything''. However, as annoying as she wasis, her mother is worse, watching from her car and honking the horn whenever her daughter gets a good shot. This makes Molly angry, makes Boobie cry even more (because Molly is yelling at her mother) and makes poor Snoopy roll his eyes, muttering, "It's going to be a ''long'' day!"
