Blithe Spirit | |
| Cha Cha Real Smooth / int_3db71fa8 | comment |
Blithe Spirit: Andrew has a certain charisma and enthusiasm, which helps get him hired as bar/bat mitzvah party starter and later to take care of Lola. He proves to be a positive force in her life, paying attention to her wants and interests and allowing her to lead the way. Lola decides she likes having him around because he treats her like a person and not a baby. | |

Horrible Judge of Character | |
| Cha Cha Real Smooth / int_c5385ad9 | comment |
Horrible Judge of Character: In addition to coming around to his stepfather, Andrew realizes Joseph is far more patient, understanding, and caring than he thought he was, having assumed the worst in him and gotten defensive. He also misreads Domino's intentions — she does want to marry Joseph because she needs that stability, and is only having doubts and commitment issues because her first husband left her. | |

Broken Bird | |
| Cha Cha Real Smooth / int_d08595d3 | comment |
Broken Bird: Domino has "always" had depression, thinks she's a bad person, is a social pariah among other parents, and feels she lost out on life due to marrying and divorcing so young. Despite that, she sees Lola as the good in her life, and claims that raising her made her better. She ultimately rejects Andrew so he can have the 20s she never got to, and so she can have a stable marriage. | |

Kitschy Local Commercial: The commercial Andrew makes to promote himself as the "Jig Conductor" features wooden acting from David, a poor font used for the text, and is shot in the rooms of their home. | |
