Heroic BSoD: Melanie has this when she loses Maggie temporarily, yelling at the police officer how she was horrible to Jack even though he took care of Sammy without any problems (at that point, she doesn't know how Sammy got something stuck up his nose under Jack's watch).

Ironic Echo: When Jack and Melanie first meet up and start arguing with each other, Sammy tells Maggie, "My mom hates your dad," to which Maggie replies, "So what? My dad hates your mom." Near the end of the movie, when they're all at Melanie's apartment, Maggie says, "I think my dad likes your mom," to which Sammy replies, "I think maybe my mom likes him back."

Intrepid Reporter: When he's not taking care of Maggie and Sammy, Jack spends the day trying to convince his source on his story on corruption in the mayor's office not to back out, and also chasing down the ex-wife of a man close to the mayor, convinced she can be his backup source.

comment
Married to the Job: Both Jack and Melanie are like this, as they both have important issues to deal with at work - Jack finds out a story he thought was secure isn't, while Melanie has to make a presentation to a major client - and one of the plots of the movie is how they have to learn to balance that with being a parent to their children. Sammy's father is also like this, which is one of the reasons why he and Melanie are estranged.

Unusual Euphemism

comment
Unusual Euphemism: Jack does this in order to discuss romance with his psychiatrist in front of his young daughter, leading to lines like, "I just want to find a fish who isn't afraid of my dark chocolate layer... and of course she'd have to love my cookie too". Perhaps lampshaded when it doesn't work. When talking about a woman in whom he is not really interested, the daughter later explains to Melanie that "He wants a fish who'll love his cookie, and she's not the type".
