Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: When Michael goes on a weekend vacation with his wife, he meets a blind man who is this trope all over Michael. Annie initially thinks the guy is really sweet, but changes her tune when she sees him totally lay into Michael for ruining his shot earlier in the day. Everyone else just thinks he's Inspirationally Disabled, and he certainly plays upon this fact a bit.

Actor Allusion: In "Art", Mike tells his daughter about his dream of playing guitar when he was in High School. "Homecoming" has several jokes about time travel. In the pilot, Mike's chair rolling him off camera might be a reference to the popular Family Ties clip of Alex P. Keaton rolling his chair across the room and tapping a textbook in triumph.
