* BatmanGambit: Capt. Howe never intended to have Rebecca move back in; he just wanted to give her the motivation to finally move forward in life and stop taking an allowance. Problem for him is, Rebecca called her mother for advice about what to do. In response, Rebecca comes back to the bar with packed bags, insisting she ''is'' moving back in and completely incapable of living on her own. In exchange for not moving back home, Rebecca manages to talk her father into a 75% increase in her allowance (with her mother secretly getting a cut for thinking up this idea).

* ReversePsychology: Captain Howe never intended for Rebecca to move back in. Her plan was to get her angry enough to stand up to him and insist she no longer needs an allowance. As the plan fails, he describes it as this to Rebecca, and he ends up having to pay through the nose to keep her from moving back in.

* HypocriticalHumor: Hearing yet another disturbing titbit about Hanover, Norm and Frasier wonder about what it's actually like there. Frasier figures it's probably just a normal rural town and all Woody's stories are exaggerated (not unreasonable to think, given Woody's memory). But when Norm suggests visiting it one day, Frasier refuses. "Wind up a human sacrifice to the Corn God? No, thank you."

* BaitAndSwitch: At the end of the episode, when the gang learn what Rebecca's done, Carla scolding asks if Rebecca Howe has extorted money from her own father, forcing him to continue working in his old age, as if Carla disapproves as she has with most everything Rebecca's done over the last two years... then they share a high five.
* CallBack: Captain Howe has heard of Sam, and his efforts to conceive a child with Rebecca from the previous season. His only takeaway? "What the ''hell'' were you thinking?"

When her dad puts his foot down, she goes into a screaming ''meltdown'' in the middle of the bar that'd make a five year old blush, and storms off into Sam's office. She's also still forcing her father to pay her allowance in her late thirties, and by the end of the episode has arranged it so he'll keep doing it.
* NoSell: Norm is immune to insults about his time in the Coast Guard. When he brings it up to try and get a free drink out of Rebecca's dad, he just shots back "you must be very proud, ''miss''." Norm, not missing a beat, asks if this means he'll buy a girl a drink. No luck, Norm.
* ThePollyanna: Good old Kelly. Immediately after her argument with Woody she declares, with about as much force as Kelly ever says, that she's totally miserable and even wishes she were dead... then snaps back to her normal, obliviously cheerful self and says "bye" to everyone at Cheers.
