Line 20:
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Darby makes one {{spoiler|to save Katie's life. Not that he ends up actually sacrificing his life, though.}}
* [[Jerkass]]: Pony Sugrue
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: King Brian. Yes, he does just about everything he can to trick Darby, but he goes out of his way to be nice to him. He takes Darby into his kingdom with the intention of having him live a light-hearted existence there for the rest of his days and even though Darby ''didn't'' wish for Katie to fall in love with a steady young man, he still tries to get Katie and Michael together because he knows that Darby would want that. Plus, one of the times he ''does'' trick Darby, the trick works in such a way that it works out excellently for Darby.
* [[The Kindnapper]]: King Brian. When he hears that Darby has been evicted from the gatehouse, he decides to put the come-hither on Darby so that he can come live in the leprechaun kingdom instead. It's rather nice down there, too, with merriment, riches, and a Stradivarius violin for Darby to play, so it's obvious why King Brian sees it as a favor to Darby. However, King Brian doesn't intend to let Darby leave, and Darby doesn't want to stay down there, either.
* [[Leprechaun]]
* [[Literal Genie]]: King Brian, any chance he gets. {{spoiler|Including the climax, when he uses it to save Darby's life.}}
* [[Meddling Parents|Meddling Parent]]: Pony's mother, Sheelah Sugrue
* [[Not Even Bothering Withwith the Accent]]: Sean Connery
** [[The Untouchables|Foreshadowing?]]
* [[Not-So-Imaginary Friend]]: King Brian
