* AssholeVictim: The antagonists of the film die pretty systematically. [[spoiler:Elmer is accidentally shot by Sandra after Dexter steps on her foot and Lulu strangles her with her macrame. And after Todd revealed himself to be having an affair with Francine's mother, he's later run over by Cuddles and Heintz who happen to be driving by in their limousine, and Francine's mother is hit after they back up. The film stops right there as Francine and her children hug]].

The film boasted the use of scratch-and-sniff 'Odorama' cards, with the in-universe explanation being that Francine has an acute sense of smell. Whenever a number flashed on screen during the film, you had to scratch the number on the card to get that particular smell. The smells ranged from normal things like pizza, roses, and leather, to more things you wouldn't normally smell like skunk spray, gasoline, glue, and a fart.

* CloudCuckoolander: Cuddles Kovinsky is pretty happy throughout and while she genuinely tries to make Francine feel better, she's rather undeterred at everything around her. This is most obvious when Francine's mother openly mocks her right in front of her and she doesn't seem to mind at all.
