* '''Downplayed''': The society isn't ''that'' large, being confined solely to under the room's bed.

* '''Enforced''': The writers wonder how there could be such a world and decide to make an entire work about that.
* '''Lampshaded''': Sally remarks: "Is there a possibility that humans will one day notice us?"
* '''Invoked''': Some surprisingly kind humans refuse to see literal arachnids as vermin and make a nice little home for them. How sweet.
* '''Exploited''': Sally and her friends use the secrecy of their society to plot their own things without human interference.
* '''Defied''': The humans either hire exterminators or do some extra cleaning to prevent such a world from happening.
* '''Discussed''': AliceAndBob, the owners of their house, ponder if there's something lurking within the house, considering that food is constantly disappearing from their tables.
* '''Conversed''': Claire and Daniel, the audience of the work, ponder if there's something similar happening within the house. They may or may not be high on drugs.
