* [[Made of Plasticine]]: Every bullet is explosive; every blunt weapon is swung like the hammer of God; anyone who's bitten by another human being has their skin peel off in sheets.

* [[Mr. Exposition]]: Dr. Menlove. As far as he can tell, the gas gives people the worst case of [[Tourettes Shitcock Syndrome]] imaginable - the victim not only loses the ability to suppress unwanted communications, but unwanted actions. He figures this out because he was <s>having a toke</s> '''''[[Watch It Stoned|stoned out of his fucking mind]]''''' when the gas hit, and started getting wasted on everything he can get his hands on in order to remain too apathetic to go on a rampage. He's minutes away from OD'ing when Tyler and Soo arrive looking for the keys to his boat, and manages to pass on the information. {{spoiler|The rest of the zombies maul him to death before he can die peacefully of the drugs, ''[[No Good Deed Goes Unpunished|as if they are pissed off at him for giving away this knowledge.]]''}}

* [[Our Zombies Are Different]]: They aren't zombies so much as they're humans gone completely berserk, with a taste for human flesh and a habit of doing every sick, cruel act that's ever occurred to them at any time. The gas causes a rapid series of neurological changes, driving an infected human crazy with hunger, and strips away all civilized impulses. Some people immediately go feral and only attack with their teeth; others still have enough fine motor control to use weapons or drive a car. If a gassed human has eaten enough recently, they may be relatively lucid, but are still completely psychotic.

* [[Pink Mist]]: {{spoiler|It turns out that dropping a large bomb on a hospital full of infected people is a ''really bad idea''. The miasma of vaporized blood and bodies is enough to spread the black gas even further.}}
