* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Helga wanted Arnold's hat so she could complete her shrine, and she was pretty happy when she got it. But after learning how unhappy Arnold is without his hat, she decides having a complete shrine to Arnold isn't as important as his well-being. Throughout the rest of the episode, she tries to get it back at all costs.
* StalkerShrine: The intensity of Helga's love for Arnold was quickly established by showing that she kept a shrine of Arnold in the back of her closet that was shaped like his head and made out of his used chewing gum. Later shrines shown included one made out of an actual football and garbage, and another that was some sort of hat / mask thing that she put on and danced around in. About the only thing preventing this from being incredibly creepy is the fact that she's nine years old and it's PlayedForLaughs.

* BullyingADragon: PlayedWith; early in the episode, people bully Stoop Kid, knowing that he's too afraid to leave his stoop to stop them. At the end of the episode, Harold continues to tease Stoop Kid and litter his stoop with a popsicle stick. This proves unwise, as Stoop Kid, now having found the courage to leave his stoop, chases Harold across the neighborhood.

* TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside: Played with, and explored. It's not that Arnold's lack thereof hat makes him ugly, but it still makes him feel incomplete. When he goes about the neighborhood without his hat, everyone remarks that he looks awful for some reason, seemingly confirming his belief that he's nothing without his hat. Later, however, after a talk with his grandfather concerning appearances, Arnold comes to realize he had it all wrong. People weren't remarking on his appearance because of his lack of hat, but for his downtrodden, miserable attitude. Once he takes that same walk with a more confident attitude, everyone notices he looks better for it.
