* IdiotBall: Martin insists on being as popular as possible by cramming as many fair-weather friends as possible into his pool as possible ("I see some space over there!"), and the pressure causes the above-ground pool to explode. Consequently, his friends leave and his shorts get stolen again.

* KidsAreCruel: This trope is exemplified quite a bit in this episode. Nelson causes Bart to break his leg with zero remorse, then all the kids abandon both Lisa and Martin after using them for their swimming pools (and the latter's bathing suit gets stolen for no reason as well).

* ContrivedCoincidence: The episode's plot happens through a bizarre combination of a massive HeatWave, Nelson being a jerk, and Ned Flanders thinking that overwatering a plant makes him a murderer.
