* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: The ten Purple Tentacles blocking the Sludge-O-Matic in the finale are arranged in a manner you need to recognize to work out the solution. {{spoiler|The solution is a bowling ball.}}
* [[Don't Try This At Home|Don't Attempt to Revive a Frozen Hamster in a 20th Century Microwave]]
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: The first time the player meets Dwayne, he is attempting to shoot himself in the head. Fortunately, [["BANG!" Flag Gun|he fails at this just as he fails at everything else in life]].
