The camper renovation event centers around Robbie buying a camper and discovering it was once owned by "Rick Dagger" (a play on " Mick Jagger").A "Patty Kerry" is mentioned on a newsfeed, referencing Katy Perry.A few trailers for Homescapes, for some reason, portrayed Austin being in a romantic relationship with Katherine and cheating on her with Jane from Gardenscapes (who is presented as a housemaid rather than a scientist).Minigames of that sort were introduced in mid-2020 as a response to false advertising complaints, presented in-universe as "Austin's Bad Dreams" (or as "Austin's favourite videogame" in Homescapes): however, they rarely come up. In the late 2010s, Gardenscapes among other games of this style started putting out misleading ads which portray the games as being chaotic Solve the Soup Cans games of various styles (such as choosing objects to fix a broken house or pulling giant pins to get someone out of a dangerous situation) that very rarely have anything to do with the actual premise of the game in question.Stephanie Broom is a rather stuck-up woman, leading to people say she's a witch.Jonathan Mooney is an astronomer and is first met being nervous about a date - mooning over someone is something someone on a date might do.Martha Goodwill loves animals and runs an animal shelter.Meaningful Name: Many of the townsfolk have these.Married to the Job: Winston's relationship status is "Married to his job", and Jane's is "Conducts research".Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Jane the scientist is usually wearing a lab coat.

Their response is often a variation of "She's right-I just wish she could be nicer about how she says it."
