Line 68:
* [[Straight Gay]]: {{spoiler|Mr. White}} in the extended DVD version.
* [[Take This Job and Shove It]]: Done ''in song'' during a recording session, no less.
* [[Thing -O -Meter]]: The local contest is determined by an "applause-o-meter" where a homecoming queen (or something) moves her arm in response to audience encouragement. When the Wonders "break the needle" she whips her arms from one side to the other, clearly defining them as "Wicked".
* [[Variety Show]]: ''The Hollywood Television Showcase,'' an [[Affectionate Parody]] (or [[Shout Out]]) to ''The Ed Sullivan Show'' or ''Hollywood Palace''.
* [[What Did You Expect When You Named It?]]: They've got ''one'' song, which is a runaway hit, and you want to call them the ''Wonders''?
* [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]]
* [[Yoko Oh No]]: Part of the tension of the movie stems from the love triangle between Jimmy, Faye and Guy. {{spoiler|Although it's Jimmy who thinks that marrying Faye would be bad for the band, [[What the Hell, Hero?|and his dumping her for this reason is seen by the other band members as rather tasteless.]]}}
