* [[Shallow Love Interest]]: Craig Bean to Pepper Ann.

* [[Shoulder Angels]]: Sort of. Pepper Ann often deals with situations by talking/arguing to her reflection, which can on any given day be her conscience and chide her for doing something wrong, be her anti-conscience and encourage her to not think about consequences, reassure her about something, express her doubts, or simply be her common sense, which loops back to being her conscience.

* [[Sibling Rivalry]]: Between Nicky and Becky. Nicky is jealous that Becky has all sorts of athletic trophies and good-name stuff under her belt and her parents ''clearly'' favoured her whenever she was around. However, when she finally confronts Becky about this, Becky admits that Nicky is far more creative (Being more musically inclined) and is ''far'' stronger than she is. [[Fridge Brilliance]] when you consider that even if Becky has athletic trophies; they're all for more agility-based sports.

* [[Spin the Bottle]]: Happens at Dieter's unsupervised birthday party, to Pepper Ann's chagrin. As it happens, Nicky is the only person to get spun (and subsequently smooched) before everyone decides that the game is boring and they decide to play video games.
