Unusual Hiring Practices | |
| The Happiest Millionaire / int_240c4ac3 | comment |
Unusual Hiring Practices: John gets hired as a butler just for showing up, without any need for even an interview. Even the aunt that was visiting the residence decided to treat him as the de facto butler before John had ever met any of the family that actually lived in the house. | |

Femininity Failure | |
| The Happiest Millionaire / int_2845a14f | comment |
Femininity Failure: what the song Valentine Candy is about, as Cordy wonders if she is "valentine candy" (someone a boy would want to date) or "boxing gloves" (a girl into boxing that a boy would not want to date). | |

Eccentric Millionaire: Anthony Biddle is very much like this, with a bible study class that is more about boxing and having pet alligators in his conservatory in his Philadelphia mansion. | |

High Turnover Rate | |
| The Happiest Millionaire / int_ef255df8 | comment |
High Turnover Rate: The Biddle family has a very hard time keeping house staff, mainly due to Mr. Biddle's penchants for keeping alligators in the conservatory and hosting mixed Boxing/Bible study classes. The only people they seem to be able to hold onto consistently throughout the movie are the butler John Lawless and housekeeper Mrs. Worth, both Irish immigrants. | |
