Zag deadpans, "Teamwork. Diligence. Proverbs 27:17. Work with that." Immediately, Francis cheerfully agrees to help.

* Throughout the series, Francis handles the fan letter segments, always saying that Gabby's too busy to appear herself but appreciates the letters. At the end of the Season 2 mixtape, though, Gabby notices the pile of letters by Francis' chair. When she asks about it, Francis can only give a startled look at the camera.

* Francis continuing to act out the script for the show even while Gabby breaks character to talk to Jonah can elicit laughs at points, particularly later on, when Gabby becomes prone to [[AsideGlance shooting him weary looks]] or has to talk over him, to her visible annoyance.
* While instructing Jonah to hide a gun in a book shelf, Gabby is visibly on-edge and in full "mother hen" mode about having him climb up it and ends up calling at him to be careful as he gets down.
** In the same sequence, Gabby tells Jonah not to hide the gun in his room because it would be incriminating. She then has to sheepishly clarify that she means it would get him in trouble, as the young Jonah doesn't know that word.
-->"We can learn that word later."
* It borders on BlackComedy, but the contrast between VHS Gabby's kind and gentle lesson about forgiveness and VCR Gabby's extremely blunt comments about liars going to Hell and how Jonah doesn't have to forgive anyone.
* After being very evasive about answering lore questions and dragging things out throughout all the viewer mail episodes, when Francis is asked what he does for a living, he very bluntly and directly states that he's an actuary ([[SuddenSoundtrackStop with the cheery music stopping]]), then moves onto the next letter.
* Compared to Gabby's gentle and heartfelt tone, Zag hates having to act out a kid's show and spends the entire time he does so just nodding along to Francis' dialogue, [[DullSurprise delivering his own lines in the most half-hearted way possible]], and rolling his eyes or looking at other things, all in a way that just screams "I would rather be doing anything else with my time".

** The game also has Zag barely commentating on Jonah's progress on the lilypad game, only giving him encouragement after clicking on him, and sounding disinterested as he's doing it. The entire time, he's just reading a newspaper.

* The itch.io online game could count as this, especially towards the end. Even though the game gives off an atmosphere of building up to something horrid, with Gabby even threatening to hit Francis on the head with a mallet, it ultimately ends with her just lightly tapping him with it with no injury, with a cartoonish bonking sound to boot.
