There's a close-up of Tim's "mustache". The first is in Tim's Imagine Spot of having one like his ancestors while the last one is a Bait-and-Switch moment, as it's Jane's mustache beginning to grow. Wrong Assumption: Upon first glance, Tim and the Barnabys assume that their nanny is a bad one and try to get rid of her, when in reality, she was doing all she could for them. It gets worse after he reads Linda's text response to the Willoughby's parents informing that they're selling the house (to stay on their vacation) and asking her to get rid of their children, with her replying that she would take care of him and his siblings. Tim immediately jumps to conclusions and assumes she's going to act on his parents' words, causing him to call the Orphan Services on her. As it turns out, she wasn't planning anything of the sort and was planning on adopting them, but by then, the Orphan Services had already arrived. They have also organised that the house be sold while they are away, in the hope of getting rid of the children.Doubles as Foreshadowing for those who know the books in question.

The epilogue has a close-up on a face, with yarn strands as the beginning of a Willoughby mustache like Tim's always wanted.... only to reveal it's Jane's mustache, and Tim is now the only Willoughby without one.

Winifred and Winston Poore have long admired the toys of their neighbor Richie Willoughby and finally befriend the mysterious boy next door. But just as Richie finally begins to make friends, selling sweets is made illegal, and the family’s fortune is put in jeopardy.

A common running gag of Jane's character is her often saying when someone believes something is coming is, "is it more of a some or more of a thing?", as well as her constantly using a "what if?" situation. Convinced they’d be better off raising themselves, the Willoughby children hatch a sneaky plan to send their selfish parents on vacation. The siblings then embark on their own high-flying adventure to find the true meaning of family.Fuzzball Spider: While in the coal bin, Tim Willoughby encounters and shoos away a spider, stylized as a purple ball with eight eyes and eight legs. I’ve always felt that I was fortunate to have been born the middle child of three. My older sister, Helen, was very much like our mother: gentle, family-oriented, eager to please. Little brother Jon was the only boy and had interests that he shared with Dad; together they were always working on electric trains and erector sets; and later, when Jon was older, they always seemed to have their heads under the raised hood of a car. That left me in-between, and exactly where I wanted most to be: on my own. I was a solitary child who lived in the world of books and my own vivid imagination.

And they didn't know how not to make it happen, hence the existence of his siblings. Like Father, Unlike Son: All past Willoughbys parents, aside from being adventurous and creative, were good parents who valued raising their children. For some reason, those good qualities skip a generation with the current Mr. Willoughby (and by extension Mrs. Willoughby).
