Pull the Plug on the Title

Pull the Plug on the Title: "Ex-Girlfriend": Inverted. In the music video, Melina (the current girlfriend) is competing against her boyfriend's ex-girlfriend both metaphorically (she was his long-time Childhood Friend Romance) and literally (in a track race). As a result of the latter, the song's title appears on the track's scoreboard as "ex-gf". The problem? While the scores are rendered in your typical LCD light bulbs, the words "Melina" and "ex-gf" are displayed in plain, non-glowing white letters. "I’ve Had Enough": Played With because it's not the title that glows but a key verse of the song's lyrics. The phrase "#Closed for the weekend" appears in several shots on a lit changeable letters sign.

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: In "Ex-Girlfriend", the shirts worn by the characters at the race track are very indicative of their final placement. Melina's besties wear black because they are not actually competing for Melina's boyfriend's affection (hence why they get derailed early on) but as moral support. Melina has a shiny silver shirt and the ex-girlfriend sports a golden one. They respectively earn the silver and gold medals despite Melina's best efforts. This reflects Melina's feelings of inadequacy when compared to her boyfriend's ex.

Red Is Violent: The music video of "I've Had Enough" has red as a prominent Color Motif—most of the girls wear at least one red clothing, Melina's hotel room is red lit, etc. This is meant to match the song's lyrics, which are about righteous female rage in the face of abusive partners.

Anaphora: In "I've Had Enough", each stanza's starting verse parallels the one adjacent to them via the first words; except for the bridge. The two opening stanzas—as well as the one immediately after the chorus—begin with "So you + verb [...]" as a way to mock the abusive partner's hypocrisy. A pair of stanzas starts with "Closed for [...]". Another stanza has four verses opening with "You're/Your/You". The chorus dials it up, with its two (different) stanzas starting with "Here's to the 'no's", and then has each following verse open with "To the + noun". The "Here's to [...]" sentence gets repeated in the closing stanza.
