Karma Houdini: Sean's attempts to Blackmail Nancy, sabotaging Jack's attempts to find her parents house and turning up at their house himself uninvited doesn't result in him being rightfully thrown out of the house and slapped with a restraining order but instead Nancy promising to send him photos of her and Jack making love.

Jerkass: Sean, he is a creepy stalker obsessed with Nancy that tries to blackmail her into kissing him by threatening to tell Jack her real identity, when Jack goes back to the bowling alley to ask Sean where Nancy's parents live Sean deliberately takes him to the wrong address. Jack's ex-wife Hilary is very obnoxious and antagonistic.
