Line 10:
* [[Fourth Date Marriage]]
* [[Happily Married]]: Matt and Christina Drayton. It's what gives Matt his eventual insight into why he shouldn't stand in the way of John and Joanna's marriage, and stands behind every line of his speech at movie's end.
* [[Positive Discrimination]]: Poitier's character is so ridiculously perfect in every conceivable way that he hardly seems human. This was deliberate (if a bit [[Anvilicious]]) on the part of the filmmakers, so that the only possible objection to his marrying Joanna would be his race (and the fact she had only known him for ten days).
* [[Title Drop]]: What Christina does when informing her husband that John's parents would be joining them for dinner.
* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]]: What Joanna comes off as. As John said, "It’s not just that our color difference doesn’t matter to her. It’s that she doesn’t seem to think there ''is'' any difference."
