Added DiffLines:

* AliceAllusion: The "don't drink me" vodka, the bathroom with chess-board tiles and bunny-rabbit wallpaper... and the trippy perspective when Rebecca picks up the bathroom-floor pill is similar to Alice's growing and shrinking.

Added DiffLines:

* DoubleMeaning: When Josh's friends help him put together a dining room table for his new apartment for Valencia, they start making negative comments about the table that are clearly intended to refer to his relationship. ("There's still time to bail... on the table, I mean" "The truth is, none of us really even like the current table"). It's not entirely clear whether Josh ever picks up on this.
* EasilyImpressed: Paula is absolutely dazzled by Calvin, who's basically a successful local businessman who she thinks of as almost royalty. She even has an extended jazz number lauding his 'Preferred Traveler' status.
* InnocentInnuendo: When Josh's friends have a DoubleMeaning conversation about his relationship (see above) one of them doesn't pick up on it, and goes off on a rant about parking issues that comes of as an extended sexual metaphor.

* DeliberatelyMonochrome
* EveryoneLooksSexierIfFrench: Rebecca imagines this due to seeing a French film where the woman goes "I'm so depressed." French depression looks so much sexier than ''real'' depression in her head.
* EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench
* ChromaKey: This song has the most obvious bits of green-screening, where Rebecca imagines she's in France.
