Line 23:
* [[Black and Nerdy]]: Black is a mild example; how does he know so much about lights?!
* [[Black Comedy]]
* [[Black and Gray Morality]]: Among the applicants, there is at least one [[Complete Monster]] willing to do ''anything'' - no matter how terrible - to get the job. The other applicants are at different points heroic and (depending on what is being threatened and who is on the receiving end) willing to just stand by and watch.
* [[Black Dude Dies First]]: {{spoiler|Seemingly averted, then subverted}}
* [[Blondes Are Evil]]: Averted
Line 43:
* [[Crucified Hero Shot]]: Inverted {{spoiler|with Black's "death." Lampshaded by Deaf}}
* {{spoiler|[[Dark Horse Victory]]: Thought that White or even Black would win, didn't you? Nope, ''Blonde'' wins.}}
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Most of the cast, but White and Brown stand out particularly.
* [[Decoy Protagonist]]: The first-billed characters, Deaf and Chinese Girl, {{spoiler|have the least amount of lines out of all the contestants; Deaf IS revealed later to be a [[Chekhov's Gunman]], however}}.
* [[Deliberate Injury Gambit]]: {{spoiler|Subverted}}
Line 98:
* [[MacGuffin]]: The test papers.
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: White. Brown, too, to a lesser extent. Of course, it's revealed that {{spoiler|Deaf was manipulating everyone in the room the entire time, albeit in a heroic inversion of this trope.}}
* [[Manly Tears]]: {{spoiler|White}} after being unwittingly disqualified.
* [[Meaningful Echo]]: Anytime someone is disqualified, they replay the Invigilator stating the rule that was just broken; {{spoiler|the only exception is Brown's disqualification}}
* [[Minamalism]]
Line 105:
* [[The Mole]]: {{spoiler|Deaf}}, who was actually {{spoiler|the CEO of the company}}.
** [[Red Herring Mole]]: {{spoiler|Dark}}, who actually ''did'' work for the company, but was {{spoiler|legitimately applying for the position, and was not planted there intentionally}}.
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]?: {{spoiler|White}} after being disqualified.
* [[Nameless Narrative]] / [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: the job applicants [[Lampshade Hanging|insist on not giving each other their actual names]]. "White" gives them all nicknames instead: "Black", "Brown", "Blonde", "Brunette", "Dark", and "Deaf". The representative of the company only calls himself "the Invigilator".
** The guard and the first applicant to be disqualified are never named: they are credited as "The Guard" and "Chinese Girl" respectively.
* [[Near Villain VictoryEucatastrophe]]
* [[Never Trust a Trailer]]: The trailer made the movie seem far more action-packed than the final product.
* [[No Good Deed Goes Unpunished]]: {{spoiler|Dark gets disqualified when she appeals for an intervention because one of the applicants is dying.}}
