Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The apparition of Delia telling Nancy where the revised will is could be explained as simply a dream after watching one of Delia's films, especially since Nancy was shown asleep before she appeared.Karma Houdini: Apparently the entire school thought it was hilarious for Trish and Inga to try and trick Nancy into giving CPR to someone who didn't need it.Unfortunately for him, Nancy records his confession on her cell phone. Just Between You and Me: Biedermeyer reveals he was the one to kill Dehlia when he corners Nancy back at her house.His very first scene has him ignoring her questions by pretending to have just gotten a phone call from his earpiece. Jerkass: Dashiel Biedermeyer, the lawyer of the Draycott estate, who is pretty unhelpful to Nancy during her search for Dehlia Draycott's will.Instant Drama, Just Add Tracheotomy: Everyone at the Wild Teen Party gasps when Nancy performs an impromptu tracheotomy on an allergy victim, just off-camera.Indecisive Parody: The film teeters back and forth between making Nancy into an old-fashioned dork or the wisest of all girls.Hoist by His Own Petard: The cell phone Biedermeyer gave Nancy to let his henchmen track her is then used to record his confession."It's important to judge the ends and judge the means independently, in order to do what's right."

However, he starts giggling just before she does, blowing the act.

But the age of her daughter means her career had to happen in the late 70s/early 80s at the earliest, which were a very, very different Hollywood, and the "scandal" wouldn't have been nearly such a big deal. In addition, the glamorous movie starlet behind the case Nancy investigates in-film seems to have waltzed right out of the 1930s and 1940s, both in attitude, the films she starred in, and reason for dropping out of the public eye. Ambiguous Time Period: River Heights and Nancy are seemingly completely unchanged since the 60s, but Los Angeles is clearly in the modern day.
