* [[Inherent in the System]]

* [[Jury Duty]]: Fat Freddy gets called for jury duty and eagerly anticipates the easy money, but his roommates warn him that potential jurors are sometimes dismissed based on their looks - so he slicks down his hair and puts on a suit to look super-straight...and the freak defense attorney dismisses him over his looks.

* [[Malignant Plot Tumor]]: Every story usually starts off with the Brothers attempting to score drugs. By three quarters of the way through, they may be in the middle of a gold rush, trying to find their parents, or attempting to foil a military coup of the planet.

Line 35:

* [[Police Are Useless]]: Fortunately they are also the villains.

* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: How the Brothers' escape every sticky situation.

* [[Shout Out]]: During Fat Freddy's wake, we see several comics creators mourning his death.

* [[The Stoic]]: Franklin, although such are the situations he regularly finds himself in he's [[Not So Stoic|less stoic than he'd like to believe he is]].

* [[Strawman Political]]: The state governor is called Rodney Richpigge.
