Line 29:
* [[I Have Your Wife|I Have Your Mate]]: [[Played for Laughs]] when Shepard and his crew have to create this scenario to appease the krogan. By offering them a chance to hold ''Mordin's'' 'mate' during his loyalty mission.
* [[Large Ham]]: Mordin really hams it up when {{spoiler|pretending Miranda is his mate}}.
* [[Laser -Guided Amnesia]]: {{spoiler|EDI doesn't even remember her original name, or those of her creators. Cerebus made sure of that.}}
* [[Martyr Without a Cause]]: Thane is so determined not to be a bother or 'presume' anything that for the first week he's on board the ''Normandy'', he {{spoiler|doesn't eat or drink anything}}. Shepard is understandably annoyed when he finds out.
* [[Noodle Incident]]: The 'ergoline incident' that led to Mordin not being allowed to store any more samples in the medical bay.
* [[Not So Different]]: Jacob regards the assassin Thane and the mercenary Zaeed as being cut from the same cloth. Thane points out their own similarities.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Ken and Gabby share this with Joker in Chapter 19 when he announces {{spoiler|EDI shut down their dampeners, rendering them unable to jump away from the trapped Collector ship without casualties in the lower decks}}. Becomes a bigger one when he adds {{spoiler|that won't stop him from jumping without them, even knowing it would kill most of the Cerberus crew}}.
* [[One -Man Army]]: Shepard already had a reputation as this due to his heroics during the Blitz. {{spoiler|Except he hadn't acted alone.}}
* [[Propaganda Machine]]: Put quite the spin on Shepard's actions during the Blitz, ignoring little details like {{spoiler|how he had help from a squad of turians}}.
* [[Psychopathic Manchild]]: The fact that the waking world is entirely new to Grunt is played up for all it's worth, both good and bad.
Line 48:
* [[The Vamp]]: Played with; while her perfect appearance makes this a viable tactic, Miranda is self-aware enough to realize she's ''not'' a master manipulator and lacks the social graces required to charm her targets with more than looks.
** With the above knowledge in mind, Miranda makes clear to Kelly that ''she'' should consider seduce Shepard -- and [[Kick the Dog|makes clear she believes that's all the psychologist is good for]].
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Shepard gives Grunt a ''huge'' dressing-down after {{spoiler|his trigger-happiness with a flamethrower kills half the colonists his team managed to save, and he nearly killed Jacob for calling him on it}}.
* [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: The reason for {{spoiler|Wilson's execution}}.
