Ironic Name | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_23781532 | comment |
Ironic Name: The Commune. It starts out relatively indicative name for a group of share-and-share-alike True Companions, but becomes more ironic as the events of the movie split them apart. | |

HotForStudent | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_3b9a79a | comment |
Hot for Student: It's implied that the student Miles brings home from one of his improv classes is not the first that he has picked up this way (see Insult Backfire below). It's a sign of his growing maturity when he starts a relationship with someone his own age. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Timothy, who runs Weekend Live, goes back and forth on this. He has a reputation for firing people at the drop of a hat if they displease him. However, when we actually meet him, he is harsh but not uncaring. He knows enough about his employees to be aware of Jack's interest in cycling, and gives him an artsy bicycle left on the show by Björk. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: The episode of Weekend Live that the Commune watches together, up to and including the weird '80s throwback band that is the episode's musical guest. Two sketches of Jack's that we never see are titled "Scooby-Doo Gets Put Down" and "Kim-Jong Un on The Bachelorette". He asserts (apparently correctly) that these sketches will not make it to the final show. | |

Happily Adopted | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_48e8fe57 | comment |
Happily Adopted: Implied. Although it's not established whether Miles and Liz are married by the end of the movie, Miles makes it clear that he wants to be the father figure to Liz's son, and doesn't care that it's not his child. | |

| Don't Think Twice / int_98d3f973 | comment |
Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe: Averted. They know for a fact that the baby isn't Miles', which doesn't seem to bother him at all, although this doesn't stop the others from joking with him about it. | |

Hypocritical Humor | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_b707726f | comment |
Hypocritical Humor: Miles constantly belittles Weekend Live, at one point asking "was it ever good?", but also constantly brags about his audition for it ten years previously, and is still working on submitting to it as a writer. | |

It's All About Me | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_bb18a227 | comment |
It's All About Me: Miles. He constantly talks about his Glory Days and sees everything that happens around him (including his friends' success) only in terms of how it effects and reflects on him. Also results in the Freudian Slip entry above. | |

True Companions | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_c313d43a | comment |
True Companions: The Commune starts this way (as evidenced by their name, and the way the members talk about the group), but the plot of the movie tests their limits by pushing them apart. | |

Expy | |
| Don't Think Twice / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: "Weekend Live" is clearly Saturday Night Live, its aloof and ruthless boss is clearly supposed to be a version of Lorne Michaels. The central improv group is partly based on the Upright Citizens Brigade (except in real life most of the original UCB had fairly enviable comedy careers, not just one of them). | |
