Line 46:
* [[Dirty Cop]]: There are few of these.
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: An IRS guy audits Jersey, so Durga [[Frame-Up|frames him]] for various crimes, makes his wife leave him, and has him transferred to Alaska. A guy unintentionally interrupts Durga's conversation, so she gets him fired and tells him his son isn't his. A guy follows orders given to him by the corrupt Major Standish and follows Rani around, so Durga frames him for grand theft auto.

* [[Mafia Princess]]: Sophia dates gangster Aiden primarily for the benefits of being with a rich guy.
* [[Meaningful Echo]]: In reference to "[[Kiss Me, I'm Virtual|slut bots]]", Jersey flippantly says, "For a quality experience, the girl's got to be real." Later, upon making Durga confront the reality of being the [[Transhuman]] form of a dead little girl, he says, "For a quality experience, the girl had to be real." In Melissa's farewell letter to the players, she says, "It's been the last, best kind of quality experience. You made the girl real."

'''Mr. F:''' Jesus, just show me the thing already. }}
* [[The Ace]]: Yasmine, and Jan. Drives at least two of the plot threads.
Line 121:
* [[Thou Shalt Not Kill]]: Jan spends some time trying to figure out whether or not it makes sense to kill bad people. She later tries to kill a bad guy, but Gilly stops her because she doesn't want to see Jan become [[He Who Fights Monsters|hardened by killing]] like happened to Gilly.
* [[Understatement]]: During the exposition:
{{quote| '''Kamal:''' If it is counting down, what do you think it'll do?<br />
'''Durga:''' The last time it was triggered, the shockwave flatlined communications throughout the Solar system for more than 7 seconds.<br />
'''Jersey:''' Durga doesn't know, but she thinks it'll probably be bad. }}
* [[Unwitting Pawn]]: Melissa, when she's manipulated into stopping the Spider..which turns out to be her antivirus program, allowing the Seeker/Pious Flea to rewrite her program into serving his purpose of spying for the Covenant.
