* CatholicSchoolGirlsRule: Evelyn is in the middle of some sort of sexual roleplay involving her dressed as one when Alan shows up to ask for money.
* EveryManHasHisPrice: Alan is told that there's a good chance he's going to experience a lot of very dangerous and damaging side effects if he agrees to take the experimental drug. He's clearly put off by this, but once he's offered a thousand dollars a week, he immediately agrees.
* SideEffectsInclude: When Alan goes to sign up for the drug trials, the doctor warns him of a laundry list of potential side effects he could suffer if he takes the actual drug and not the placebo. Alan ends up with the actual drug, and many of the side effects (hair loss, sudden fainting, heart palpitations, darkening of stool) end up happening to him.
* StatusQuoIsGod: The dynamics of the show require Charlie to be rich and able to provide for Alan, while still not needing to work very much so he can be a carefree bachelor. So by the end of the episode, he's started a career in children's music.
