Line 45:
* [[Emperor Scientist]] - Trevor.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards|Even Kinkiness Has Standards]]: When an "alien" offers to trade eyeballs with Aeon (see below):
{{quote| '''Aeon:''' Oh my god, no! I'm sorry, but there are some things even ''I'' won't do!}}
* [[Exotic Equipment]] - Various forms, partly to get past censors by using nonstandard methods of copulation, and partly because, well it's ''Aeon Flux''. Examples include a woman with a gap in her spine (due to injury/surgery) having her spinal nerves manually stimulated with medical tools (which, incidentally, was proven to be viable by some doctors in [[Real Life]] [[Life Imitates Art|a few years after the show came out]]), sexual imagery involving a behavior-altering mechanism implanted forcefully through the navel, and a species of humanoid "aliens" who apparently engage in sexual contact by taking out an eyeball and replacing it with that of their partner.
* [[Face Palm]]: Done by Aeon as she plummets to her death after completely botching an acrobatic manoeuvre on the outside of a plane; also when she watches the embarrassing security camera footage of her falling off a ladder.
Line 68:
* [[Omnidisciplinary Scientist]]: Trevor Goodchild is many things--he's a spymaster, a political leader, and a military leader, but he's also a doctor, and he regularly does doctor work even in other capacities as a form of "community volunteer work." This includes both work with "mental patients" as well as physical things like spinal surgery. Trevor is a very hands-on guy.
* [[Opening Narration]]:

''You're out of control.''<br />
'''I ''take'' control. ...Whose side are you on?'''<br />
''I take no sides.''<br />
'''You're skating the edge.'''<br />
''[[I Am the Trope|I am the edge]].''<br />
'''What you truly want, only I can give.'''|''You can't give it, can't even buy it, and you just don't get it.''}}
