- Defrosting Ice King: Compare the Jerkass Leon from the second season beginning to the much less constipated one from the last episodes.
- Jerkass: Initially.
- Kick the Dog: No matter what you think of May, not even she deserves to have Leon deliberately dropping her on-stage and causing her to get seriously injured.
