| Bye Bye Love / int_1dfd19f9 | comment |
Papa Wolf: Grace's new boyfriend, Gerald, gave Jed "nothing more than a tap" in response to perceived rudeness. Vic tells Grace in all seriousness that should that ever happen again, he will kill the man without a second thought. | |

Disappeared Dad | |
| Bye Bye Love / int_28cd01ca | comment |
Disappeared Dad: None of the main trio are this, as they try to fit in as much time as possible with their kids, but Dave reveals to Donny near the end of the movie that his own father was this. His folks split up, and Dave wouldn't see his father for months on end. The first visit involved Dave not even recognizing the old man and being given a tennis racket (despite never once playing tennis). | |

Everyone Has Standards: Townsend sometimes doesn't fully appreciate what divorce does to an adult, but he is outraged when a caller tells a story of her ex promising to take their son to a hockey game on the kid's birthday, never showing up, and never explaining why. | |

The Bro Code: Susan points out that Donny was well-aware of Dave cheating on her but said nothing, due to prioritizing loyalty to a male friend over a female friend. Donny is admittedly ashamed of this. | |

Disneyland Dad | |
| Bye Bye Love / int_c8411f03 | comment |
Disneyland Dad: The featured dads are Type I. They love their kids dearly but only get every other weekend with them (or in some cases, two consecutive weekends), so they compensate by taking their younger kids to big attractions in town (anywhere with rides, a baseball game, etc.) to make the limited time more memorable. A montage shows them getting progressively winded trying to pack in a day full of fun but nonetheless soldiering on. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Bye Bye Love / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Dave admits to Donny that he barely ever saw his father after his folks split up, to the point of not even recognizing him during the first visit. The fear of similarly alienating and screwing up his own kids drives a lot of his actions. | |

Confirmation Bias | |
| Bye Bye Love / int_f0fc6873 | comment |
Confirmation Bias: In-universe. Donny reports that another couple the group knows are getting divorced after 11 years. Due to his own problems and experiences, Vic immediately assumes it was for trivial reasons and a slap in the face to the hard-working husband. He backtracks when Donny says said husband got caught sleeping with a secretary. | |

| Bye Bye Love / int_ff17ccf1 | comment |
Innocently Insensitive: Dr. David Townsend hosts a radio show and sometimes downplays how hard divorce can be for some parents. He's not meaning to be callous; he had four divorces of his own and is simply speaking from his own experiences. He's quite willing to hash it out with Vic in more detail when confronted in the studio (after being attacked, no less). | |
