* HilariousInHindsight: Kendall pitching his idea for the new hotel which is about theater through a musical number becomes this in the Latin American Spanish dub due to him being voiced by Creator/IdziDutkiewicz, [[Film/Pinocchio2022Disney who voiced another Disney villain with a similar song and is much more hammy in hindsight]].

** [[InvokedTrope Invoked]]. Being children under 10, Bobby and Patrick do this all the time with Skeeter's stories. All of which translate to the real world in some form and are always PlayedForLaughs.

** A weirder (though admittedly heartwarming) example happens in the WhereAreTheyNow epilogue.

* FridgeHorror: Had Skeeter not manage to stop the detonation of the school, two kids would have been blown up. Food for thought.
