Line 12:

** ''"The next right thing,"''

* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]:

** The dam subplot, where King Runeard {{spoiler|constructed a dam ostensibly as a gift to the Northuldran tribespeople but was actually a way to subjugate them by cutting off their resources}}, is fairly reminiscent of the [[wikipedia:Alta controversy|Alta controversy]]. Said controversy stemmed from a hydroelectric dam in Alta, Norway proposed since the 1960s, and clashes ensued between the Norwegian government and the Sámi people who weren't at all pleased with what would arguably disrupt their traditional way of life.~~<ref>[https://theconversation.com/frozen-2s-postcolonial-plotline-is-it-all-a-bit-of-a-charade-127981 Frozen 2's postcolonial plotline: is it all a bit of a charade?]</ref>~~

** "[[wikipedia:Water memory|Water has memory]]" is a [[Your Mind Makes It Real|common excuse]] by homeopaths when confronted about the efficacy (or lack thereof) of their dilutions, arguing that water somehow retains a "memory" of what it was mixed with, thereby supposedly retaining the properties of the other substance even if the resulting dilution removed all traces of the ingredient the water has been mixed with. Olaf cheekily played with it by saying "Oh, yeah. Water has memory. The water that makes up you and me, has passed through at least four humans, and, or animals, before us," implying that bodily excrement would be reflected in the water to Sven's disgust.

* [[Elemental Embodiment]]: Earth is represented by a band of stone giants, water is in the form of Nokk, a horse, fire is represented by a salamander named Bruni, and wind is an amorphous yet sentient entity, whom Olaf nicknamed "Gale".
