The dialogue between the father and the son shows a reversal in audeince expectations. We see the father shouting and swearing at the teenager, which is normally something we would expect to hear from the teenager. The father's aggressive reaction to the diegetic rock music plays to the stereotype that teenagers play loud music and are inconsiderate to older people. His reaction also plays to the stereotype that teenagers frustrate their parents.
The non-digetic music that we hear when the teenager is working out in his bedroom has a very repetetive beat that is played over and over. This suggests that he likes routine and everything to be orderly. This ties into his work out as through the montage it is portrayed that it is a daily routine. This conflicts with the stereotypical view of a teenager, as normally we would expect someone of his age to lie in and be less motivated in the morning.
