Line 287:
* [[Technical Pacifist]]: JC himself ''can'' qualify, but the more obvious example is his brother Paul, who will extol the virtues of non-lethal takedowns while still being programmed the annihilate any enemies he spots with a plasma rifle.
** By skirting around him on the dock, you can lead Paul on a homicidal rampage across Liberty Island. While chasing you down to deliver his lecture on the virtues of nonlethal force, he will happily [[Hypocritical Humor|gun down every NSF troop who gets in his way]]. Which becomes doubly hilarious when you take into account the fact that {{spoiler|Paul is himself a member of the NSF}}. This is more of a case of [[Good Bad Bugs]], as the developers didn't intend for Paul to ever leave the dock during the mission, but it is still funny nevertheless.
* [[Technology Marches On]]: Lebedev's jet is explicitly identified as a "747". While the venerable frame looked like it would keep on going for a long time at the start of the third millennium, its discontinuation (after remaining orders were fulfilled) was announced in 2020. With a service life of roughly 30 years, this would make it an antique at the very end of its service life, not something a man rich enough to buy part of LaGuardia would have as his primary transport.
* [[Techno Wreckage]]: The Ocean Lab.
* [[Ten-Second Flashlight]]: JC starts with a built in flashlight that is reasonably powerful (but not blindingly potent) that will consume all of his power in 10 minutes. For comparison, that's 1/30th the power rate of ''turning invisible'' (which costs less at high levels).
* [[This Is Unforgivable!]]: Explicitly stated by Gunther when he finds out {{spoiler|you killed Anna Navarre}}.
* [[To Hell and Back]]: Mentioned in Jacob's Shadow.
