Innuendo: While walking to the snack bar, Lana warns Lola that the scariest part of a horror movie is when two people sticking together get separated. This ultimately causes Lola to get caught by Butch, unbeknownst to Lana.
Irony:
While the younger sisters hiding in the back of Vanzilla initially appear to be the only apparent issue that Butch would have to deal with while checking the van for illegal stowaways, Leni quickly reveals that she snuck in a bag of sweets in the back of the van, unbeknownst to others. As a result, when Butch catches the younger sisters hiding in Vanzilla and refers to them as "sweeties", Luna assumes he is referring to Leni's bag of sweets.
Lola pulling the "Nunya Business" trick on Butch prompts him to tell the alleged Mr. and Mrs. Business that their missing daughter has been found and he calls "their daughter" by the name "Nunya Business" (pronounced like a contracted form of "none of your business"), which could come off as self-contradictory because this would suggest that the "parents" don't have to come looking for their daughter.
Lisa initially assumes that a cardboard cutout of Hookhand is an officer due to her being unable to see. However, Butch, an actual security guard, turns out to be hiding behind the cutout.
Upon discovering that the Loud sisters have deceived him by hiding their shoes in the photo booth to make it appear that they are still inside, Butch collects their shoes and assumes that they can't kick him without them, prompting them to kick him back into the photo booth without any shoes on and retrieve them.
Lincoln's plan to hide his younger sisters' adventure outside of the house involved giving his parents a tour of his Bricko castle, which inadvertently destroyed it.
