* SwansASwimming: Averted in "Fancy Park". Pretty as the swans at the titular park are, they're portrayed as greedy and snobby. When they see Sarah giving Duck some bread, they start squacking for some, she tosses a slice in the pool -- and then they turn up their beaks at it, apparently seeing it as "common". A slight case of ShowingTheirWork, as real swans are not as friendly as people assume.

* RightForTheWrongReasons: In "No More Wool," Leftover Wool admits he's unaware of what Scarf Lady is knitting, but suggests that considering the size of what she's making, it's probably a "wooly hat for the Big Shop!" She was indeed knitting a wooly hat, but it was for the Weeping Woolen Tree (she calls it a "treewarmer").
