Bait-and-Switch: We are led to believe that Travis is about to drown when he falls asleep at the wheel again and crashes his car into a river. He emerges from the car unscathed... only to be eaten moments later by an alligator. It's later established that Obie has potentially deadly heart problems, and his collapse in the middle of the FAM telethon after learning about Roger's death is teased as a fatal heart attack. It turns out to be a simple panic attack which he survives. | |

Cult | |
On Becoming a God in Central Florida / int_e5411cdf | comment |
Cult: FAM exhibits elements of cultish thinking, especially in how they revere Obie, pressure people into finding new recruits or following the company's rules, and how they label skeptics as "stinker-thinkers." Made more obvious in a sequence when Obie summons Cody in the middle of the night to question the latter's loyalty. | |
