• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Who'd have thought the rejection of a marriage proposal could prove to be the sweetest moment in a movie.

Tracy: No, Mike. Thanks, but... Mm-mm, no.

• Magnificent Bastard: Sidney Kidd
• One True Threesome: If you happen to be watching for the first time (or the first time in a while) after having spent any time at all in fandom, it's hard not to wish the answer to "Mike or Dex?" were "Yes."
• Values Dissonance: Tracy's father tells her the reason he's cheating on her mother with a younger woman is because she (Tracy) is too much of a willful, frigid bitch. And at the end of the movie, Tracy thanks him for saying it.
  • Not to mention that nobody brings up Seth's bullshit argument that cheating has nothing to do with the other spouse when everyone thinks Tracy's cheated on George.
  • No one seems particularly bothered by the implication that Dex (while drunk) probably smacked Tracy around a bit while they were married, including Tracy herself.
  • Especially when the movie opens with Dexter shoving Tracy down onto the floor.
