  • Crosses the Line Twice: The idea of a Hooters-style restaurant staffed entirely by pre-teen girls with even the name of it referencing their non-existent breasts is so offensive and wrong that it loops back to being hilarious.
  • Fridge Brilliance: While Stan playing "Shock the Monkey" is framed to be him Comically Missing the Point, it becomes rather apropos when realizing that Peter Gabriel has stated that the song is about being consumed by jealousy over a love life, which is Stan's exact predicament following his breakup with Wendy.
  • Harsher in Hindsight:
    • Stan says that, at 9 years old, if he doesn't work things out with Wendy, then he could be alone for the rest of his life. This is Played for Laughs, but come South Park: Post Covid, Stan and Wendy are in their late forties, Wendy is with another man, and Stan has no one but his Alexa.
    • Butters' easy acceptance of his first breakup in this episode becomes this in light of his second breakup, which he will not take as kindly.
  • Heartwarming in Hindsight:
    • The goth kids were ready to accept Butters as one of their own when they saw how sad he was. Compare that to the vampire kids, whose first instinct was to reject Butters because he wasn't cool enough for them, or the boys in the previous season, who constantly held him to unfair standards due to being Kenny's replacement.
    • The aforementioned Harsher In Hindsight has become this following South Park: Post Covid: The Return of Covid and Deep Learning, the former implying that Stan and Wendy get back together in the future while the latter confirms that they're still dating in the present. It looks like Stan won't be alone in the future!
