Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Owen's parents keep getting facts about Parker completely wrong, much to his chagrin. Especially about her job, she owns a yoga business and they somehow keep thinking she's a stripper.

Ripped from the Headlines: Owen ends up lying to Parker about their wedding cake baker being dead, but "it's fine because she was a racist", bringing to mind actual cases of bakers that refused to cater gay weddings. One car chase scene involves a lot of squad cars showing up at once.

Black Comedy: The Ghost Bandits flee their last job in an armored van, which takes a wrong turn into a cemetery and starts mowing through tombstones, which actually slows down the squad cars on their tail. Crosses into The "Fun" in "Funeral" when the van swerves into an actual funeral and knocks the coffin right into the grave!

Actor Allusion
 The Out-Laws (2023) / int_392372f9
comment
Actor Allusion: When Neil (Richard Kind) meets Billy (Pierce Brosnan), he tells Billy that he's very attractive. Kind played Mark Devanow on Mad About You, and in the 11th episode of the first season, Devanow references that he had a dream in college about Pierce Brosnan and later asks if anyone ever watched Remington Steele. Owen strutting his stuff like a professional thief leads to Lily sarcastically comparing him to James Bond. Billy even asks her which version and she says the fifth one. If you count George Lazenby, that's the right one. Lil Rel Howery as bank security, who's fully supportive of his friend and co-worker's love life, while also being horribly inept at his actual job? Yeah, that seems familiar.

Wounded Gazelle Gambit: When the robbery on Phoebe's vault starts, Owen pretends to hide from the carnage by locking himself into the vault, while actually grabbing all the money. After Rehan is killed, Owen sneaks back into the vault, after learning from Phoebe how to crack it, returns all the money, then pretends he'd been hiding there in a panic the whole time. Phoebe naturally smells a rat, but she can't prove anything.

One Last Job: The Ghost Bandits hitting Owen's bank was intended as this at first - until Rehan insists that the interest has raised by five times, prompting them to go on one more last job. The fact that she kidnapped their daughter also helps.

Cultural Translation
 The Out-Laws (2023) / int_7d49d74a
comment
Cultural Translation: In the French dub, when Owen and Parker go to bed and Owen references Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, it is awkwardly replaced by the 1970's French preschool show L'île aux enfants and its title song, somehow (French people wouldn't be familiar with Mister Rogers, but neither would Americans be familiar with L'île aux enfants, which stopped in 1982 besides, which also makes the reference alien to most French people born after the 1970s). In the Norwegian subtitles, Mr. Rogers is replaced with "Sjonkel Rolf". To be fair, that character appeared on Norwegian tv for decades, up until the 90's, and since the film was merely subtitled, not dubbed, the Mr. Rogers title song is not changed.

Knowing that the FBI guy is already listening in, Owen gives his parents a fake location, while calling his cousin RJ and getting him to be the getaway driver.
