* SubhumanSurfacingShot: In the stinger, a vampire seemingly levitates from a pool of blood to [[SinisterNudity stand naked]] before his assorted servants, who quickly drape a cloak over his shoulders and proffer up a human victim for him to feed upon. It's one of the many things about this scene that's played for horror... [[MoodWhiplash up until]] the vampire lord belatedly realizes that the vampire spy who was just killed went by the name "Coach Feratu".

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: The Vampire Lord in the stinger is reasonably pissed when finding out about Coach Feratu's death--not because he died, but because Coach Feratu (real name Balik Alistane) chose such a ''painfully'' obvious alias as "Coach ''[[Film/{{Nosferatu}} Feratu]]''. He even stops himself midway through an incredulous rant to ask if he's coming across as a buzzkill to his other underlings before adjourning the meeting.

* BigBrotherInstinct: Inverted, as Morty has some Little Brother Instinct for Summer. While he initially resists her attempts to return Tiny Rick to his normal body, what gets him to change his mind and help her is when Tiny Rick humiliates her at the dance in front of the whole school and she runs off in tears. When the two of them later stop Tiny Rick from attempting to kill his normal body, Tiny Rick insults Summer for interfering with him, prompting Morty to stick up for her and kick his ass.

* InnocuouslyImportantEpisode: Rick transferring his mind into a child-version of himself seems like a one-off plot, especially since he transfers back into his old man body by the end (because StatusQuoIsGod) and destroys all the younger clone versions of himself in a scene very much PlayedForLaughs. As it turns out, these clones are part of Rick's Phoenix Protocol project, which becomes relevant in "Edge of Tomorty: Rick Die Rickpeat" and "Rickmurai Jack", and him destroying the clones here has major consequences during the former.
