Go To

Hank is asked by Enrique to give a speech at his daughter's quinceanera.


  • Boomerang Bigot: The hipster's reason in buying a house in Enrique's neighborhood is this due to "no whiteys" around despite being white himself.
  • Commonality Connection: Hank and Inez start to bond over soccer and the popular girls.
  • "Eureka!" Moment: When Bobby makes the suggestion of inventing a place called Cool Town for the hipsters so they can leave Enrique's neighborhood, Peggy gets the idea make Enrique's neighborhood into a place hipsters hate.
  • Hipster: Peggy's newest client, Asa, is one, and Peggy notes that he and his friends are "a bunch of young, starving artists with rich parents."
  • Money Dumb: Enrique apparently spends all of his money on fancy parties (and funerals), hence him being unable to buy his house.
  • Series Continuity Error:
    • Enrique previously said in "Enrique-Conciallble Differences" that his marriage fell apart because his children moved out. Here, we are introduced to his fifteen-year-old daughter, Inez.
    • Hank appreciates the fact that Inez likes soccer, even if it was a big plot point in "Three Coaches and a Bobby" that he hated soccer and didn't consider it a true sport.
  • Villainous Gentrification: Peggy tries her hand at selling real estate. She sells a house in Enrique's neighborhood to a hipster who later gets his friends to move into the other houses. At first, the changes are benign ("They put salmon in the fish taco!"), but Enrique later reveals that the gentrification has caused his rent to skyrocket.
