Birds of a Feather: Deconstructed with Catherine and James. At first glance they appear to be well suited for each other since they're both accomplished academics and part of the same social circle. But they have different personalities and not to mention widely different ideas on how to spend their honeymoon. | |

| I.Q. (1994) / int_292d4681 | comment |
Electric Instant Gratification: James is doing the experiment with the mouse. There are two switches the mouse can press: one that gives him food and one that gives him this trope. The mouse hasn't eaten in three days. Moreland asks Einstein how this could possibly be the case, and Albert simply gives him a look. | |

Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor | |
| I.Q. (1994) / int_b5bd58a3 | comment |
Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor: Downplayed. While it's clear James enjoys a more affluent lifestyle than Ed, it's never mentioned and doesn't really factor into Catherine's decision. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| I.Q. (1994) / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Near the climax, when Catherine discovers that Ed has been conning her for much of the movie she's furious. She still hooks up with him at the end. This is quite possibly because in disproving the theory, she did something that even her uncle could not do. | |
