comment |
Daughter for Dessert is an episodic adult visual novel developed by the Love Joint studio.The main character (MC for short) is the owner of a diner. He has raised his now-adult daughter, Amanda, from infancy following her the death of her mother, Lainie, in childbirth. MC does the cooking and the office work, while Amanda and her best friend, Kathy, wait the tables, and the two of them consider their diner as a second home.However, the diner is failing. There’s only one regular, an obnoxious and pervy police detective by the name of Moe Mortelli, and most days, the dining room is empty or close to it. MC is considering selling his business into liquidation, but he ultimately needs to trust Amanda to help him run things in order to get the diner on track.And through it all, MC’s relationship with Amanda takes an, ummm, interesting turn. MC finds what seem to be erotic stories about himself and Amanda on Kathy’s phone, and over time, it becomes clear that Amanda has feelings for him that have nothing to do with their father-daughter relationship. While Amanda is embarrassed and ashamed when MC finds out the truth, MC is nothing but supportive, and agrees to help Amanda explore her sexuality in order to resolve her feelings.And even though MC doesn’t get out much, he has plenty of other dating opportunities at his diner as well. Kathy, Amanda’s best friend and fellow waitress, is up for some fun. Heidi, a former bar owner whom MC hires as the hostess, is ready for a relationship now that she’s no longer working all day, every day just to get by. Veronica, who failed at building a startup company and takes over MC’s office duties, will get straight to the point with no strings attached. And finally, Lily, a free-spirited hitchhiker whom MC eventually hires as the diner’s cook, can eventually eventually, with time and patience, let MC past her fun and often goofy exterior and experience true intimacy.However, a woman shows up who threatens both the existence of the diner and MC’s relationship with Amanda. Cecilia, Lainie’s sister, and wealthy, powerful, and angry, and she hints that she has some serious dirt on MC. Sure enough, Amanda starts to drift farther and farther away from MC after Cecilia’s visit, and MC is forced to reveal some tragic details about Lainie and himself in the hopes of getting her back. Can MC salvage his life in the face of Cecilia’s allegations? |

comment |
No Accounting for Taste: Mortelli has cheated on his wife (including at least once with a prostitute), he once had a burner phone just for this purpose, he talks inappropriately about just about any other (especially younger) attractive woman he sees, he keeps a stash of porn at his desk, and in addition, his job keeps him at work for long hours, sometimes during the night. He and his wife are still married. |

Incurable Cough of Death: An interesting variation with Lainie. MC noticed that Lainie had a cough, but didn’t think anything of it, and it is clearly implied to have caused Lainie’s death in childbirth. However, Lainie might have been able to get cured if she so chose; however, she concealed the full extent of her illness from MC so that her treatment money could instead go to the business that MC wanted to start. |

Multiple Endings: There are three endings for each of the main girls (Amanda, Kathy, Heidi, and Lily): a “good� ending where MC joins his chosen girl in an ideal life, a “neutral� ending where MC has an okay relationship which may be permanent depending on the girl, and a “bad� ending in which the relationship, well, ends badly. Additionally, there is a hard-to-find harem ending, as well as an ending with no girls. |

Waiting for a Break: Kathy wants to be a writer, but doesn’t have the focus to make good on any of her ideas. Meanwhile, her biggest writing accomplishment isn’t even hers (her hit erotica series actually being written by Amanda). In the “good� Kathy ending, Kathy finally gets her big break after publishing a best-selling book. |

6 Is 9: The flyers made to promote the diner’s reopening are supposed to say that the diner opens at 6:00 AM. However, when no customers show up for a couple of hours, the staff double-check the flyers, and find that they actually mention an opening time of 9:00 AM. And sure enough, customers start flooding through the door at 9. |

Gentle Touch vs. Firm Hand |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_203bb427 |
comment |
Gentle Touch vs. Firm Hand: MC and Amanda have very different ideas for how to manage their employees. MC wants to pay wages that are above the market rates but fair in his mind, while Amanda wants to pay at or close to the market rates. Also, when Lily struggles in the kitchen, MC wants to give her a chance to get the hang of the work, while Amanda would rather just fire her. |

Deep Sleep: Throughout the story, MC oversleeps several times when he’s supposed to open the diner. Each time, it’s because he’s been pushing himself too hard and trying to do too much, and each time, Amanda and eventually Heidi can handle opening the diner instead. |

Tampering with Food and Drink: MC butters Mortelli’s toast with raw chicken grease in order to put him out of action so he could break into the detective’s office. His plan works; Mortelli has to run to the bathroom for a while. Nor is this the first time MC does something like this. In a flashback, we see MC putting laxatives in the water cooler in the office of Lainie’s family’s lawyer so he has time to hack into the man’s computer. |

comment |
Elephant in the Living Room: Letting this trope take over can take the player off Heidi’s romantic path. Some time after MC goes to Whiskeyville, Heidi asks MC if he wants a date, and the two of them go to a restaurant. Their server is Blake, a handsome young man who filled in briefly for Kathy. MC is insecure about the possibility that Heidi could potentially prefer Blake over him, and Heidi knows it. MC can ask her about it; if he doesn’t, then Heidi will end things with him, but if he does, Heidi reveals an embarrassing secret about Blake that means she would never date him. |

Dirty Business: Invoked by MC just before breaking into Mortelli’s office. Lampshaded by Mortelli himself after he single-handedly derails MC’s prosecution. |

Secret Relationship |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_2bf993ad |
comment |
Secret Relationship: Whichever girl he chooses, MC will only tell the rest of the main cast near the end of the story. Justified, as MC and all the girls work together, and introducing a romantic relationship can cause tensions in that situation. Especially justified with Amanda because of the taboo nature of this particular relationship. |

Pastimes Prove Personality: Kathy’s activities include writing and smoking marijuana, and she is very liberal and free-thinking. Invoked by MC regarding Lily. MC surmises that her participation in a real-world scavenger hunt/RPG is due to a lack of decision-making ability; she’ll only do something if someone else tells her to. |

Misplaced Retribution: Cecilia blames MC for Lainie’s death, but Lainie herself eschewed the treatment that could have saved her life, and hid her illness from MC until she died. If Cecilia were to blame someone other than Lainie, it would most reasonably be her father, who had cut her off prior to the whole incident. |

Clothing Reflects Personality |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_355e858b |
comment |
Clothing Reflects Personality: Several examples: Heidi always wears clothing that wouldn’t be out of place at work. She is driven, punctual, and diligent, and she is perfectly capable of running a business by herself. Zigzagged with Veronica. She wears fancy dresses, which leads MC to believe that she is sophisticated and successful. However, when he actually has a conversation with her, he finds out that she’s not really that successful; she had a business, but it failed, and in retrospect, she found the idea ridiculous. She did, however, learn a thing or two about running a business. Lily wears clothes that are typically dirty and sweaty, emphasizing her lack of self-care. Saul wears a fancy suit (except when he temporarily takes a job cooking at the diner). He is extremely elitist and tends to have a patronizing attitude toward most people. Cecilia wears expensive clothing and jewelry, and sure enough, she identifies strongly with her wealth. |

comment |
Awful Truth: MC doesn’t tell Amanda the whole truth about who her mother was. This backfires, as Cecilia offers answers about Lainie to Amanda, and uses her information to drive a wedge between MC and Amanda. MC also doesn’t tell Amanda that their diner is failing, even when he’s contemplating selling the business to a liquidator. She finds out anyway when she catches Kathy looking for another job. After MC and Amanda have sex for the first time, Kathy asks what happened. The best option is to lie, and say that MC and Amanda just talked. |

Jury and Witness Tampering: Inverted. Mortelli tampers with his own testimony (and the evidence) because he doesn’t want to see MC go to jail over something that he firmly believes is right. |

Skewed Priorities |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_3d2c6d30 |
comment |
Skewed Priorities: Conversed between MC and Amanda when they disagree about the direction in which to take the diner, and about what MC’s role should be in the foreseeable future. MC doesn’t think any specialization is necessary and wants to retain an active role on the ground, while Amanda wants the diner to specialize more and hire more employees to whom MC can delegate the day-to-day operations, leaving him free to look at the big picture. Invoked by Lily’s father in the “good� Lily epilogue. When Lily’s parents are vetting MC for his suitability as a husband for their daughter, MC mentions that he used to own a diner. Lily’s father seizes on the “used to� part, asking how he intends to support Lily once his money runs out, since he has no more income. In the end, though, Lily’s parents bless their relationship, saying that they only want their daughter to be happy. |

So Crazy, It Must Be True: MC’s explanation about what happened between Lainie and himself makes this kind of impression on Mortelli. Before MC tells the story, Mortelli rants that MC is a “career criminal� who is every bit as bad as Cecilia says he is, but after he hears MC out, Mortelli believes him so much that he gives MC his gun, just in case it’ll be useful later. |

Damsel in Distress: Double subverted with Amanda. Cecilia has not coerced Amanda into anything, but she’s managed to win her niece over by giving her information about her mother that MC didn’t. Still, it requires a hell of a rescue operation to get her out. Played straight with Lainie in MC’s flashback. MC had to rescue her from the cult that she’d fallen in with to save her from a purification ritual. |

comment |
A Friend in Need: Amanda confides in Kathy that she is attracted to her own father. Kathy not only doesn’t judge her, but also agrees to post erotic fiction stories that Amanda writes about the two of them on the internet. If the inspiration for the stories were to be discovered, it would be traced back to Kathy, not Amanda. Mortelli also has his moment at the end. Sacrificing his professional reputation, and quite possibly his freedom, he intentionally sabotages MC’s trial. |

Hollywood Economics |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_503fa644 |
comment |
Hollywood Economics: MC used $250,000 that Lainie had swindled out of her family lawyer to: a) launch his diner; and b) keep it open through nearly two decades of slow business. In reality, the startup costs of a diner would eat up well over half of that sum, and even if the diner lost only $5,000 per month, the money would run out well before the ten-year mark. After reopening, the diner starts doing well - well enough, in fact, that it can afford to close for a few days in a month. However, any non-chain food service business operates on a slim profit margin - if it makes a profit at all. Averted with Heidi and her bar. Even though Heidi’s is a popular hangout, Heidi herself struggles so much to make even a modest profit that she sells her business into liquidation. |

Third-Act Misunderstanding |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_584634dd |
comment |
Third-Act Misunderstanding: Thanks to MC’s silence on the matter and Cecilia’s manipulations, Amanda thinks MC let Lainie die so he could use her treatment money to start the diner. MC has to break into Cecilia’s hotel room to allow Amanda to see the truth: that Lainie, who’d been cut off by her father, used an illness that she never told MC about to convince her family to give her that money. |

comment |
Genius Ditz: Although Lily has few academic or real-world skills, she can come with deep-sounding philosophical sayings about living life to the fullest. Subverted, as her sayings only make sense for someone without any responsibilities (and Lily herself comes to realize this, coming to the diner to ask for a job). |

My Girl Is Not a Slut: Amanda has no sexual experience before she starts fooling around with MC. Subverted with Heidi. After sharing sexual experiences with MC and Kathy (sometimes both at once), Heidi stops in the middle of a love fest, and tells MC that since she doesn’t like casual sex, he has to choose right then and there between her and Kathy (or someone else). |

Not Himself |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_59f0de2a |
comment |
Not Himself: Amanda doesn’t show up for work and doesn’t call out. At another time, she insists that she’s studying with “friends� that MC never heard of. She also says once that she had a job interview with a company with an obviously fake name. And through all this, she sleeps in her own room rather than MC’s. That leads MC to believe that something’s wrong, and sure enough, Cecilia has been feeding her information about Lainie, manipulated in a way to make MC look like a bad guy. Kathy stops coming to work when MC and Amanda are in Whiskeyville. Heidi chalks it up to Kathy’s temperamental mindset, but MC is convinced that there’s something else behind it. When MC visits Kathy at her apartment, he discovers a big secret that she and Amanda have been keeping from him. Mortelli is away from the diner for long periods of time following Cecilia’s threat, and when he does show up, he acts weird, even for him. He’s also been listening to Cecilia, and secretly investigating MC. |

Happiness in Minimum Wage: Blake. He seems to enjoy waiting tables, and tells MC (when the latter takes Heidi on a date to his new workplace) that it was “an honor� to have worked for him, if only for a short time. When MC trains Saul as his temporary replacement in the kitchen, Saul seems to take to cooking surprisingly well. Even though he’s still looking for a new job in law, he welcomes the change of pace that cooking brings. |

| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_5aa60027 |

Tell Me About My Father: Gender inverted. Amanda is desperate to know more about her mother, but MC hasn’t given her much to go on. She’s very surprised that the stupendously wealthy Cecilia is her aunt, and MC’s secrecy about Lainie allows Cecilia to twist the narrative about his relationship with her, making him look like a bad guy. |

My Secret Pregnancy |

comment |
My Secret Pregnancy: Taken to its logical extreme in the “good� ending with Amanda. When they get the news, MC and Amanda leave behind their friends and their business to start over again in Hawaii. Given her family’s attitude toward her relationship with MC and Cecilia’s attempt at revenge on MC, it’s very possible that Lainie kept her own pregnancy with Amanda secret from them. Otherwise, Cecilia probably would have come looking for Amanda sooner. |

She takes a nude selfie just because, and isn’t upset when MC finds it. She also sends MC a nude picture for jerkoff material, provided that MC asks nicely. However, she’s hesitant to do the deed with MC due to Amanda’s feelings for him. |

comment |
Wrong Line of Work: Amazingly, two examples for the exact same job: Defied by MC when he hires Saul to run the kitchen when he and Amanda are about to travel to Whiskeyville. MC spends a bunch of late nights training the now-unemployed lawyer for the job, and Saul does pretty well. Zigzagged with Lily when she gets hired as the diner’s cook. MC has to be be very patient with her, especially since Amanda wants to fire her for her poor performance in the kitchen. Ultimately, though, Lily learns to cook up to the diner’s standard. |

Shameless Fanservice Girl: Kathy is unembarrassed when MC finds her nude pictures after looking through her phone, and sends him more if he asks her nicely. She is also unbothered by Mortelli talking dirty to her. |

Trauma Conga Line: Pretty much all of MC’s adult life. He got an expensive engineering degree with the promise of a good job only to find out that the company he was planning to work for would soon close the plant, got stuck working at a hot dog stand, which was supposed to be a temporary occupation until he finished college, lost his first love in a preventable death due to the demands of her family, opened a diner which consumed pretty much all of his time and energy while almost always operating at a loss, has to conceal his next loving romantic relationship due to its incestuous nature, and gets targeted for ruin by a wealthy relative of his late girlfriend’s who blames him for her death. |

Then, she hid a serious illness from MC so he could use the treatment money to start a new business, dying in childbirth as a result. |

Distinction Without a Difference: Mortelli claims that his tryst with a prostitute in Las Vegas isn’t a secret. Lainie, Cecilia, and their family hate when people call them “rich.� They prefer to say that they own a lot. |

| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_7d5e6488 |
comment |
Ready for Lovemaking: Amanda tries to get MC’s sexual attention in increasingly blatant ways. It’s only when Kathy tells MC about Amanda’s secret crush on him that he reciprocates. After the secret comes out, this trope resurfaces in a downplayed fashion. Amanda, wanting to impress MC, makes changes to her appearance that are very subtle for a man. MC notices so little that Amanda herself has to lampshade it to open his eyes. Olivia dresses in skimpy clothes, and is quick to invite MC into the back of her shop alone, and then flirt aggressively with him. |

Amanda is then unaware of her mother’s family’s wealth until Cecilia shows up and promises her access to her mother’s inheritance, but only if she were to forsake her father. |

Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The name of the city where the majority of the story takes place is never named, nor is the name of the state ever mentioned. Using context clues, the story probably takes place in California, possibly in a secondary city such as Pomona or Merced. The location of Whiskeyville is likewise never stated. A prime possibility is Texas. However, there are no towns named Whiskeyville anywhere near California. |

Like Father, Unlike Son |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_8841192a |
comment |
Like Father, Unlike Son: Kathy, the liberal, bisexual feminist, had a very conservative upbringing. Lily doesn’t think the cultural image of a “good Korean girl� is for her, no matter what her parents say. Lainie had a very different attitude toward the world from that of the rest of her wealthy family, wanting to mix with the common people. She was also quite a bit more naive than they are. |

Ethical Slut: Kathy. She’s definitely sexually open and quite possibly a feminist. She takes and keeps Amanda’s confidence regarding her attraction to MC, and gives her an outlet for it. She only reluctantly starts a relationship with MC because of Amanda’s feelings. And she thinks it’s a mistake for MC and Amanda to make love, even if they both want it. |

MC replies that he doesn’t see himself as a good enough cook to run his own restaurant. And we know that MC can cook. |

comment |
Medium Blending: Done masterfully with several of the minigames, in which elements of well known video games and mobile games are inserted into the gameplay. This is especially true in the video game arcade scene when MC takes either Heidi or Veronica there, and plays a faithfully reproduced 80s video game (the player has a choice between Pong, Asteroids, and Centipede). |

Nothing Is the Same Anymore |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_99dfd4fc |
comment |
Nothing Is the Same Anymore: The struggling diner becomes profitable after its reopening. MC is more cavalier after this point about giving people jobs or doing things that cost him money. Lampshaded by Amanda on the beach trip. She says she wants to go “back to the way things were,� and MC asks whether she means before or after the trip to Whiskeyville. She clarifies that she means after the trip. |

I Let Gwen Stacy Die: Discussed by Cecilia and Mortelli. She believes that MC stole the money intended for Lainie’s medical treatment and used it to open his diner. In truth, Lainie never told MC that she was sick, and MC was never sure what she said to convince her family lawyer to give her that money. |

Punctuated! For!

And when he expresses surprise: Later, if MC decides to hit on Heidi anyway, he can offer to tend the bar for her (simulated by a minigame). And if he fails: |

Good Lawyers, Good Clients: Zigzagged. The supposedly corrupt prosecutors are representing the government, not Cecilia personally, and as for Saul, who represents MC for free, his client (MC) actually did commit a crime (albeit not for an evil purpose), he engaged in a criminal conspiracy in order to exonerate his client on a technicality, and his motives for doing any of these things are unknown. |

Single-Issue Psychology |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_9e335555 |
comment |
Single-Issue Psychology: A direct line is drawn from Cecilia’s priveleged status and her extreme sense of entitlement. Invoked with Amanda. She directly says that her romantic attraction to MC comes from a time when he saved her from drowning as a small child. Implied with Lily. Her passive personality is hinted to be reflective of her strict upbringing, and her free spirit is framed as a rebellion against the same strict upbringing. Interestingly, this trope is also parodied with regards to MC. The psychologist who comes to the diner and analyzes MC bases her assessment only on his childhood experiences. And for his part, MC bullshits these “experiences� as Kathy sucks him off under the bar. |

Get Out!: A non-angry version. On the trip to Whiskeyville, Amanda comes into MC’s room, and things start to get sexual. Not wanting things to go any further, MC tells Amanda to leave. It damages their relationship until MC learns Amanda’s secret. A more conventional one occurs when a “customer� comes into the diner without any intention of ordering anything. Kathy delivers the two words. |

Closer to Earth: Subverted with Lily. She offers MC and Amanda tidbits of wisdom on living life to the fullest, which all seems great until they realize that her advice doesn’t work in a world where people have responsibilities. Double subverted in the “good� Lily ending, where MC decides that he wants an end to the drudgery that has defined his life up this point, and starts traveling the world with her. |

Nocturnal Crime: Averted. Mortelli’s break-in at MC’s apartment and MC’s break-in at Mortelli’s office both take place during the day. MC’s and Lainie’s deception of Lainie’s lawyer also happens during the day. The same is true of Lily trespassing in the hotel swimming pool. However, Kathy’s underage drinking hijinks and (probably) the toaster theft happen at night, and MC breaks into Cecilia’s hotel room in the evening. |

Don't Celebrate Just Yet: Even after being acquitted at his trial, MC realizes that Cecilia won’t just give up on her vendetta against him because of that. In the Heidi epilogues, MC and Heidi come up with an ambitious plan to stave her off, franchising their diner into a chain to gain a comparable level of wealth to what she and her family have. It actually succeeds in the “good� epilogue. |

comment |
Sex Changes Everything: Invoked three times throughout the story: The morning after MC and Amanda make love for the first time, Kathy asks MC how his talk with Amanda went. If he tells the whole truth (“We had sex�), Kathy says that he made a big mistake because of the implications of sex. If MC, Kathy, and Heidi have threesomes, Kathy pulls away from their second one. When MC goes after her, Heidi says that she’s not into casual sex; sharing her body is a commitment for her. Thus, MC has to choose right then and there whether to commit to Heidi, or to someone else. If MC decides to break things off with Amanda, he says that it could be unhealthy or even dangerous to continue their relationship. |

On the one hand, Saul’s job at the beginning involves buying up distressed businesses at low prices, he drops his offers if the owners won’t quickly make up their minds to sell, and he conspires with Mortelli to tamper with evidence at MC’s criminal trial. On the other hand, he offers the business owners far more than what they think their own businesses are worth, he gives them ample time to read their sale contracts, and he represents MC at his trial for free, despite MC’s insults. Plus, he insists that he has a sense of “honor, which is not for sale.� |

| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_b6738eed |
comment |
Hint Dropping: Amanda tries to seduce MC by small but significant actions, such as delaying covering herself when he sees her in the shower. The culmination is in Whiskeyville, when she walks into his hotel room naked. Still, it takes MC finding out that Amanda is actually writing the father-daughter incest stories that Kathy is posting for him to figure out what’s going on. Justified by the taboo on incest. Later on, Amanda asks MC if he notices anything different after he gets home from work. After he gives a generic answer, she is angry that he didn’t notice the work she put into her makeup. Then, Amanda does this for a third time. She gives vague clues that she wants him to tell her about her mother, and when he doesn’t take the hint, she surreptitiously moves out of their apartment. |

Definitely Just a Cold: Lainie’s coughing. MC didn’t pay any attention to it, but unbeknownst to him, a doctor had given her a serious enough diagnosis to get her a check from $250,000 after she’d been cut off. She eventually died while giving birth to Amanda. |

Plug 'n' Play Friends: Subverted with Lily. Although she gets along perfectly well with MC and most of the staff (and even with Mortelli) from the moment she arrives at the diner, Amanda is the one exception. Amanda goes so far as to say that Lily should be fired. Double subverted with Heidi. It looks like Kathy has stopped coming to work when Heidi is running the diner, but in fact, Kathy has no issue with Heidi at all. There’s something completely different on her mind which is driving her to stay home. |

Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot: Possibly. At the beginning of the story, the crime that Mortelli investigated is the theft of the toaster at MC’s diner. It isn’t clear how Mortelli gets dragged into investigating MC for defrauding Lainie’s family lawyer, but MC suspects a connection between the two investigations. |

The Bartender |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_be5e459b |
comment |
The Bartender: Heidi is the bartender who also owns the bar. Not only does she have skill at making drinks, but she can also keep order when customers get unruly. And she doesn’t take any crap from customers who are particularly insulting. In fact, she enjoys bartending so much, and is so skilled at it, she always tends the bar for her high school reunions. MC also has some background in bartending. And if he chooses Heidi over Veronica, he try his hand at running the bar on a bet. And if he succeeds, some after-hours fun with Heidi is in the cards. |

comment |
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Veronica is a dating option for MC early in the the game, and soon afterward, she is hired at the diner as the office manager. However, her only appearance after that is to tell Amanda that she can’t fire Lily just because. She doesn’t join the first attempt to get Amanda back from Cecilia, she’s not at MC’s not-going-to-prison party, and MC can’t finish the game in a relationship with her. Amazingly, even if MC took Veronica to the video game arcade instead of Heidi, the dialogue between MC and Heidi will flat-out say that this date was between Heidi and MC. |

Freudian Slippery Slope |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_ca03acbc |
comment |
Freudian Slippery Slope: Bonus points for its occurrence in a “therapeutic� conversation with an actual psychologist, and more for MC still trying to hold the conversation with the impetus for the first slip still in effect. While a psychologist customer tries to analyze MC from in front of the bar, Kathy gives him a blowjob from under the bar. As a result, MC blurts out a lot of things in succession. The psychologist doesn’t even pick up on anything unusual going on, and instead gives a bizarre interpretation of what MC tells her. She then declines to charge him for her “services,� as he is such an “interesting case.� |

Teamwork Seduction: Double subverted. Heidi enlists MC to try this stealthily with Kathy, because Heidi in sure that Kathy is bi. Kathy pretends to be offended, but she’s actually up for a threesome with the two of them. |

| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_ca8db933 |
comment |
Higher Education Is for Women: Played with. Mortelli is implied not to be a college graduate, and while MC did graduate college, his degree has never been any help to his professional life. Notably, Amanda and Kathy, who both come from humble origins, are in college, and Amanda uses some of her college lessons to help save the diner. |

Cloudcuckoolander: Mortelli. He’s a positive guy, a good cop, and a loyal friend to MC, but he lets slip details a little too easily, doesn’t understand why racist humor and raunchy jokes are so offensive to some people, and has a very loose definition of the word “secret.� And he takes the theft of a toaster a little too seriously. |

Cope by Creating: For a time, Amanda deals with her crush on her father by writing erotic stories about a father-daughter couple who run a diner. Notably averted with Kathy. She has dreams of being a successful writer, but she tends not to do anything when something’s bothering her. |

Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_cbbf302c |
comment |
Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends: Mostly played straight. Heidi is the first to bring this up, since she doesn’t like casual sex, and she wants MC to choose whether or not to be serious with her. Then, MC has to choose between Amanda and any other girl that he’s seeing at the time. Averted if MC dates Veronica early in the game; her romance with MC just fades into the background without comment. |

Unsatisfiable Customer: Zigzagged with Cecilia (before she introduces herself). She comes into the diner, makes unreasonable demands of MC, and berates him when he can’t meet them. Then, she gives Amanda a $1,000 tip. After she returns and introduces herself, she also reveals that she has some kind of a motive for screwing with MC (which is revealed later). |

Justified Criminal: MC and Lainie technically committed a crime by tricking Lainie’s family lawyer into giving them $250,000. However, it was the only way they could think of to climb just one rung on the economic ladder. Lampshaded by Mortelli when MC breaks into Cecilia’s hotel room to get through to Amanda. It was perhaps the only way for MC to get his daughter back without losing her forever. |

Good Smoking, Evil Smoking: MC and Kathy are both hiding their failures to quit cigarettes, but when they smoke marijuana, it’s portrayed as positive overall, with no mention of an addiction. |

comment |
Follow in My Footsteps: Averted. When Amanda is thinking about leaving the diner and striking out on her own, MC would be perfectly fine with her doing so. He doesn’t want to saddle her with running the diner if that’s not what she wants; he’s only upset that she has the wrong impression about his relationship with Lainie. |

Screw Your Ultimatum!: After delivering his contract to buy up the diner for liquidation, Saul returns to follow up. He says that MC needs to agree to the sale right now, or else his offer will be cut in half. MC refuses outright. Justified, as the ultimatum came on the back of the wildly successful reopening of the diner. |

comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: Heidi is introduced as a woman serving drinks in a bar, whom MC calls a “Nazi bitch� in a drunken stupor. She becomes one of the main girls in the story. Also, Lily first appears as a hitchhiker on MC’s and Amanda’s trip to Whiskeyville. She then crashes an awkward moment between the two in Whiskeyville, and then shows up at the diner looking for work (MC having given her his card). Saul also counts. MC runs into him for the first time walking into a bar. Later, Saul offers to buy out his failing diner. Cecilia does not immediately introduce herself, but orders a meal at the diner, and gives Amanda a $1,000 tip. Only when she returns does the player find out who she is. |

comment |
Inherent in the System: MC graduated college, and went to the plant where he’d been promised a job. The foreman told him that there wasn’t a job for him after all. When MC called him out, the foreman let slip that the company management was planning to move all the plant operations to China. Invoked by Amanda when MC is interviewing candidates for new jobs at the diner. MC wants to pay what he thinks is fair, but Amanda insists that he should pay the much lower market rate. MC defies this and pays the higher wage anyway. |

Cigarette of Anxiety: MC is shown to be a smoker at the beginning of the story. He relates his smoking to his situation as the diner is about to go out of business. Notably, after the diner becomes successful, he is never seen smoking again. Possibly true with Kathy as well. She smokes right along with her boss, and we know she’s dealing with a lot at the time. |

This is especially pronounced in the “good� ending, where MC and Amanda move to Hawaii because of Amanda’s pregnancy. |

Defying the Censors: In the title, no less. Material portraying incest is banned on Patreon, but naming your erotic game “Daughter for Dessert� is hard to beat in its disregard for that rule. Still, there's a disclaimer in the game stating that none of the characters are related, so.... |

Good Ol' Boy: Downplayed with both MC and Mortelli. They both believe in laws, but have their own morals that are independent of the law. They are also both implied to be politically conservative. However, none of this is mentioned all that much. |

Clingy Jealous Girl: Averted with Amanda early in the game. Even though she’s smitten with MC, and has been since she was a small girl, she doesn’t even seem to be affected when she walks in on him having sex with someone else (Heidi or Veronica, depending on player choice). It’s played straighter later on, when Amanda gives the newly hired Lily trouble in her job. This change is justified, as by this point, MC and Amanda are more or less official as a couple. |

Amanda also shows shades of this, coming up with a comprehensive plan to save the diner, setting up endless rehearsals for the reopening, and later, displaying obvious frustration at Lily’s initial incompetence in the kitchen. |

Locked Out of the Loop: A rare lampshaded example.

Also, MC confides in Kathy when he initially decides to sell the diner, but doesn’t tell Amanda. Amanda finds out anyway when she runs into Kathy, who is applying for another job at the time. |

Drugs Are Good: Subverted. MC enjoys smoking weed with Kathy, and they come up with some cool creative ideas. However, Kathy falls asleep while at her computer, trying to get started. Also subverted in the marijuana-fueled threesome between MC, Kathy, and Heidi. While it’s fun, especially for MC, Heidi starts acting weird afterward, and she later reveals that casual sex isn’t her thing. The drugs were just drawing her into something she’d rather not do. |

A Real Man Is a Killer: The essence of what Mortelli tells Saul when physically threatening him. And he actually points his gun at MC when confronting him about breaking into his office. |

Obsolete Mentor |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_f6d73bdf |
comment |
Obsolete Mentor: A non-technological example. MC has mastered the techniques of the diner business, but he’s oblivious to the need for specialization. Amanda has to twist his arm to get him to serve a particular niche rather than “everybody� (mostly whittled down to just Moe Mortelli). |

Cope by Pretending |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_f7512035 |
comment |
Cope by Pretending: Amanda tries this after MC rejects her initial advances. Once MC figures out what’s really going on, he gets sexually involved with her so that she can stop doing this. |

Terrible Interviewees Montage |
| | Daughter for Dessert (Visual Novel) / int_f75cf3bd |
comment |
Terrible Interviewees Montage: A bunch of “interesting� candidates come for the open positions at the diner ahead of the reopening. Since MC sets the pay well above the market rate, a ton of people show up to be interviewed, and MC doesn’t sort resumes; he just interviews everyone. |

comment |
Born Detective: Averted with Mortelli. He mostly became a cop to follow in his father’s footsteps, and he long thought of himself as too stupid to do the work that would be required of him as a detective. |

Darkest Hour |

comment |
Darkest Hour: MC has finally has the opportunity to tell Amanda the whole truth about her mother. However, he gets to that point by breaking into Cecilia’s hotel room, and he ends up in jail. Now, he doesn’t know if Amanda even cares about him anymore, and he’s not even sure if he can trust his lawyer (understandable, as it’s Saul). And his best friend, Moe Mortelli, was the arresting officer, because, as he mentions, whatever his intentions were, what MC did was a crime. And there’s evidence to prove it. |

Last-Second Ending Choice: If MC is seeing both Amanda and another girl by the time of his party, Amanda will make him choose between her and the other girl, and then the main game ends. |

Dark and Troubled Past: MC lost Lainie in childbirth, leaving him to raise Amanda on his own. Not to mention, the two of them committed a technical crime shortly before she died. MC still thinks and dreams a great deal about Lainie. |
