Opinion Flip-Flop | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_126e7451 | comment |
Opinion Flip Flop: Panos goes from cursing Antonis to calling him a saint in the same conversation, without skipping a beat. | |

Skewed Priorities | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_3d2c6d30 | comment |
Skewed Priorities: While trying to resuscitate Antonis, Panos is more concerned with saving his jacket than his life. The next scene shows why: all his money was in there and they managed to dry them out (and then lie to him so they can keep it for themselves). | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_44989f6f | comment |
"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: Michalis laments that if he hadn't stopped to help the couple, none of this would have happened. Panos insists that the girl had nothing do with his destabliziation. | |

Trivial Tragedy | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_5c5324b2 | comment |
Trivial Tragedy: At least Panos trying to drown himself over a (non-existent, two minute) heartbreak can be excused. But Antonis jumps in a pool because his mother voted for the other party once. | |

Here We Go Again!: The movie ends with the protagonists making yet another detour on their way home, which probably won't be the last. | |

Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_82b4f38e | comment |
Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist: All three brothers-in-law to an extent, but Panos comes out on top for having very few redeeming qualities, one of which being his desire to stop Antonis from committing adultery. Even so, this is for mainly selfish reasons: he realizes he will not be able to support the fractured household such an affair will create. | |

Artistic License – Medicine | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_8d6d9535 | comment |
Artistic License – Medicine:The multiplication table method is, naturally, complete nonsense. Drowning women in the lake might work, but that's still hilariously awful advice. | |

Name One | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_b80ade56 | comment |
Name One: Panos invokes this when Antonis says that Michalis has made a myriad sacrifices for him. Naturally, Antonis has an example at the ready - Michalis took the blame for a fight Panos had with a soccer referee. | |

Freudian Trio | |
| Let The Women Wait / int_e8cae797 | comment |
Freudian Trio: Panos is the Id, brash and hot blooded. Antonis is the Superego, waxing poetically about the revolutions PASOK will bring to Greece. Michalis is the Ego, quietly listening to them both. | |
