* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler: Meredith finally gets a win by gifting everyone a framed, enlarged photograph of Sybil taken when she was pregnant with Amy which everyone is touched by, only for a discussion between her and Everett to kickstart leading to her being involved in another humillating moment in front of the whole family when she accidentally reveals her "affair" with Ben]]

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Meredith during the family dinner where she [[InnocentlyInsensitve makes condescending, homophobic comments towards Thad.]] What sparks this is Sybil saying she is glad her son is gay, (which isn't to say she's glad he's not straight, but that she accepts him for who he is). Meredith misinterprets this as Sybil saying she wanted a gay son, and her response is essentially that Thad's life would have been better if he was straight. They family actually lets this slide at first, but then Meredith makes the mistake of using the word "normal".

* TrailersAlwaysLie: The movie trailer made it seem like a comedy... which is a bit of a stretch, to say the least.
