* NauseaFuel:
** Wendy getting puked in the mouth by Stan while trying to French-kiss him. The idea of 8-year-olds French-kissing can also count.
** The montage of Stan vomiting around Wendy, culminating in footage of the pilot episode when he barfs on her face.

* FridgeBrilliance: Wendy's rant against Ms. Ellen, complete with (PrecisionFStrike), seems to mirror Kyle's ClusterBleepBomb directed at the visitors in ''[[Recap/SouthParkS1E1CartmanGetsAnAnalProbe Cartman Gets An Anal Probe]]''. Considering the girl [[ChildrenAreInnocent didn't even know what a "fuck" was]] in said episode, it's likely she took some inspiration from him.

to:

* FridgeBrilliance: CrossesTheLineTwice: Wendy being a ClingyJealousGirl for Stan, who is attracted to another girl is quite generic. The third girl in question being a grown woman who is completely impartial to this LoveTriangle? That's less common. Wendy going full {{Yandere}} and getting said woman framed and killed, with the episode's ending having her return to her happy life with Stan like nothing happened?! Jesus Christ!

** As of this episode, both Stan and Wendy [[Recap/SouthParkS1E3Volcano have gotten away with murder]]. They really ''are'' BirdsOfAFeather.

* NeverLiveItDown: Even though almost no South Park character is without their criminal record, Wendy Testaburger is likely to never live down [[MurderTheHypotenuse having her substitute teacher killed]] because her boyfriend had a PrecociousCrush on her. Even today, many fan works still portray her as a {{Yandere}} even though the worst thing that she has done since is [[Recap/SouthParkS14E4YouHave0Friends harass Stan over him not adding her as a friend on Facebook]]. It doesn't help that this episode's plot heavily resembles ''[[Recap/SouthParkS5E4ScottTenormanMustDie Scott Tenorman Must Die]]'', frequently cited as Cartman's MoralEventHorizon by many, only Wendy bounces back to [[OnlySaneWoman her]] [[SoapboxSadie default]] [[NiceGirl role]] after this episode, while the latter one serves Cartman's StartOfDarkness. It also doesn't help that there are many fans who prefer the MagnificentBitch side of Wendy to her SoapboxSadie or NiceGirl side.

* BrokenBase: Wendy's [[{{Yandere}} portrayal]] in this episode split the base in half, which isn't helped by her character's [[BaseBreakingCharacter already polarizing status]]. It's either [[EvilIsCool her most popular episode]], featuring the character as a MagnificentBitch and LittleMissBadass that is on par with Cartman from arguably his most popular episode "[[Recap/SouthParkS5E4ScottTenormanMustDie Scott Tenorman Must Die]]", or a jarring JerkassBall -holding episode that [[NeverLiveItDown ruined any sympathy the viewers might have for her character going forward]], since she's otherwise presented as a NiceGirl or at least a character with sympathetic qualities (which doesn't sit well with people who believe her murder of Ms. Ellen to be her MoralEventHorizon).

* TheWoobie: Poor Ms. Ellen spends the entire episode being either flirted with or hated on by her own students, and then she's framed and killed by one of her students for the horrid crime of being pretty.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Even though coming out as a lesbian would have instantly solved the situation with Stan and Wendy, Ms. Ellen never actually confirms her sexual orientation one way or the other in the episode. This leaves it open to interpretation as to whether she actually is a lesbian but didn't want to publicly admit it given the less tolerant atmosphere at the time (which later saw Mr. Garrison get ReassignedToAntarctica for a couple of years after he came out), whether she falsely told Chef that she wasn't interested in men in order to make him back off, or whether Chef was so embarrassed at getting rejected by her that he told the boys she was a lesbian in order to save face.
