!This episode provides examples of the following tropes:
* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: Discussed at the beginning of the episode when Frank and Charlie reveal that they've been running around naked in the sewers looking for rings and coins, grossing out Mac and Dennis.
* AmbiguouslyGay: Mac describes Rex as a "quality lay", earning an odd look from Charlie.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: When Mac and Charlie are discussing how to raise a child:
-->'''Mac:''' You gotta set rules, you gotta set boundaries.
-->'''Charlie:''' Set some ground rules. Uh, you know, like... don't have them doing cocaine. Get them off the internet.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Dennis is genuinely concerned for Dee during her ordeal, chastising her for not taking better care of herself and even wanting to be in the room with her as she's giving birth. Also, the rest of the gang actually seem glad to have her back at the end of the episode, wheeling her out of the hopsital to take her back to the bar. Mac even laughs at one of her jokes.
* BadassBoast: Dennis gives one to the nurse that even he seems impressed with.
-->'''Dennis:''' If you do not get my sister her stories and a new room as soon as possible, then I will come down on this hospital like ''the hammer of Thor!'' THE THUNDER OF MY VENGEANCE WILL ECHO THROUGH THESE CORRIDORS LIKE THE ''GUST OF A THOUSAND WINDS!!''
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Charlie thinks that conception happens when "the sperm eats the egg and grows strong into a baby". He also ''cannot'' wrap his head around how the whole surrogacy thing works.
* ContinuityCavalcade: In order to try and find out who the father of Dee's
* ContinuityNod: Dee first toyed with the idea of being a surrogate back in [[Recap/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphiaS05E01GangExploitsMortgageCrisis the season five premiere]].
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Mac and Charlie discover that Dee bullies and emotionally manipulates men into sleeping with her -- which by all accounts qualifies as rape, but they don't seem to consider it as such.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Since this is
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Mac and Charlie find Bill Ponderosa to be "super shady", especially after he admits that he lies to women about having a vasectomy so they don't make him wear a condom during sex.
* GotVolunteered: Dennis finds himself stuck at the hopsital looking after Dee because the other three make it out the door before he does.
* IncestSubtext: Dennis comes around to the idea of being "the father" and at one point excitedly exclaims "''we're'' having a baby!"
* ItsAllAboutMe: The rest of the gang are mostly concerned about how Dee having a baby will affect ''their'' lives. When they find out she was a surrogate, they chastise her for wasting their time.
-->'''Charlie:''' If we knew you were doing the stupid surrogacy thing again we would have just completely ignored your pregnancy!
-->'''Dee:''' You ''did'' ignore my pregnancy!
* MenDontCry: Mac and Charlie are somewhat weirded out by Ben crying on them as recalls how Dee bullied him into sex.
-->'''Mac:''' There's a room full of dudes out there, so you might wanna... stop crying before you come back out to the party.
-->'''Charlie:''' Yeah, pull it together, 'cause, you know... you're a soldier, and you should be tougher.
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: Frank claims that they have to "cast a wide net to catch the fish that Dee banged".
* NotQuiteDead: Dennis and Dee assume that the old man who appears in Dee's hospital room is dead and attempt to remove him, only for him to reveal that he's alive ''just'' as they run into a nurse.
* PanickyExpectantFather: Dennis mostly plays this role in lieu of an ''actual'' father.
* PercussiveMaintenance: Dee tries to get the TV in her hospital room to work by hitting it repeatedly and, when that doesn't work, throwing the remote at it.
* PetTheDog: Though she was undoubtedly motivated by the financial compensation, Dee being the surrogate for Carmen and her husband is still a pretty nice gesture on her part -- especially since they'd been having trouble finding one, likely because of Carmen's status as a transgender woman. Also, the rest of the gang being nice to Dee for a change at the end of the episode.
* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Dee says this to Dennis when she's about to give birth.
* PutOnABus: This episode marks Carmen's last appearance in the series.
* ReallyGetsAround: Mac and Charlie are impressed by the amount of action Dee gets when they round up the potential fathers.
-->'''Mac:''' She is slammin' ass all over town! She's getting ''way'' more action than us.
* TheReveal: Dee was actually the surrogate for Carmen.
* SassyBlackWoman: The duty nurse who Dennis tangles with in the hospital.
* ShesBack: Said by Dennis after Dee gives birth and almost immediately starts quipping about Frank and Charlie messing around in the sewers.
* ShoutOut:
** Dennis and Dee attempt a ''Film/WeekendAtBernies'' operation to move the "dead guy" in Dee's room.
** Mac states that he and Charlie had initially wanted to do a ''Film/MyTwoDads'' thing with the baby, but he guesses they could do ''Film/ThreeMenAndABaby'' instead when Dennis wants in.
