** If you get seriously injured doing something you weren't supposed to do, it's better to tell someone right away even if you risk getting in trouble, because your health is much more important.
** If you discover someone's hiding something that will get them in trouble, you should handle it responsibly and confront them directly instead of taking advantage of them while they're vulnerable.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Walter and Audrey. When Drake finally confesses about he got hurt driving the dune buggy, they show more concern that he is hurt rather than he disobeyed them. Then when they learn that Josh found out about it, and still made his father wrestle Drake, therefore worsening his injuries, they get understandably mad at him for it. However, when Drake convinces them not them to be to hard on Josh, as well as taking responsibility for breaking the TV and convincing Josh to lie about it, they do ground him, but it’s mostly him staying in bed and allow his injuries to heal, while Josh has to take care of him, most likely for making Walter wrestle Drake despite knowing he was injured.

** When Audrey and Walter find out Drake and Josh got the dune buggy fixed and want to take it out for a spin, they forbid them from doing so pointing out that they're too young, don't have street licenses, and that it's probably not street legal. When Drake asks they they let them fix it if they can't drive it, they admit they didn't think the two would actually get it running.
** Drake decides to ignore his parents and take the dune buggy out for a spin anyway... and ends up getting into a serious accident that leaves him with sprained joints and totals the buggy.
** When Josh is caught trying to lie his way out of Audrey finding out that he accidentally broke the TV, Audrey makes it clear to him that she's a lot more upset about him lying to her than the actual TV.
* {{Unishment}}: Drake finally gets busted after telling the truth about his dune buggy accident. His punishment? Sitting in bed for several days being allowed to stay home from school, and having Josh bring food to him.
--> '''Drake:''' Yeah, being grounded is baaaad!
