 * Actually Pretty Funny : Emma found Paul's joke funny despite being scolded for saying it.
 * Noodle Incident: The kind of joke is something to do with Snow White and X-Men.

 * Badass Normal: Pretty much… everyone has at least one.
 * Badass Abnormal: Emma gets extrasensory perception.
 * Bandage Babe: Thanks to her injuries, Emma fits this... later so does Melanie. Brandy's arm is also on the mend, while Geri is left with some burns and a broken leg. This makes it subverted because of that!

 * Convenient Coma: Emma spreads two weeks in a coma, yet struggles upon waking up.

 * No Name Given: Emma is never mentioned, as she's the narrator.
 * This is eventually subverted in Part 9 when Geri mentions her name while tending to their cat, Grover.
