See: [[Reality Subtext]] below. * [[~~Distressed~~ Damsel in Distress]]: Lola in Havana. * [[Doomed Byby Canon]]: Tony, obviously. * [[Downer Ending]] * [[The Eighties]]: The opening and closing scenes take place in [[The Eighties]]. Line 25: * [[Gun Struggle]]: A three-way example between Tony, Lola, and Rico. Ends with [[Foregone Conclusion\|Tony getting shot]] {{spoiler\|accidentally by Lola}}. * [[How We Got Here]]: The movie begins with Lola drinking at a bar in [[The Eighties]]. The rest of the movie is a [[Whole-Episode Flashback]] illustrating [[How We Got Here\|How She Got There]]. * [[I Just Shot Marvin in ~~The~~the Face]]: See: [[Gun Struggle]] above. * [[Idiot Ball]]: Lola carries it all the way to Havana with her! * [[The Ingenue]]: Lola.
