Line 11:
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: An in-game meta example. The Annihilation Nation announcer says that most people know Ratchet as Secret Agent Clank's bumbling chauffeur. Said bumbling chauffeur then goes and blows a ton of crap up in the arena with weapons as big as he is.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: {{spoiler|Captain Qwark}} of all people pulls this off at the end of the game, even though he kinda just flies around doing various aerial tricks...
* [[Bond One -Liner]]: Appropriately enough, Clank gets one in the "Secret Agent Clank" films at the beginning and end of the game. Clank {{spoiler|(or rather Klunk)}} also gets one after the Courtney Gears boss battle. ("One disposable pop star... disposed")
* [[Boomerang Bigot]]: Dr. Nefarious hates "squishies" {{spoiler|despite formerly being one himself}}.
* [[Boss Remix]]: The boss theme for the fight against Courtney Gears is a remix of "Death to Squishies".
Line 17:
* [[Call Back]]: The Amoeboids from ''[[Ratchet and Clank 2002 (Video Game)|Ratchet & Clank]]'' are revealed to have been an early galactic domination/destruction ploy by Dr. Nefarious (making their appearance then something of a [[Foreshadowing]] for him).
** Also in the 4th Vidcomic you visit Qwark's training course as Qwark.
* [[Changed My Mind, Kid]]: They find Captain Qwark {{spoiler|after he faked his death so he wouldn't have to actually risk his life, and are unable to convince him to continue fighting. Later on, in the final boss battle, he comes dramatically sailing in on his spaceship, pumping rounds into the boss.}}
* [[Chekhov's Armory]]:
** Courtney Gears appears for the first time when you first win on Annihilation Nation, before you discover her role in Nefarious's plot.
Line 27:
* [[Fake Ultimate Mook]]: Despite looking intimidating, King Amoeboids are downright pathetic (and VERY easy to one-hit kill) once your weapons are decently leveled. You can even use the Quack-O-Ray on them for D.I.Y [[Nightmare Retardant]].
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Dr. Nefarious hates "squishies".
* [[Five -Man Band]]
** Q-Force, how Qwark sees it:
*** [[The Hero]]: Qwark
Line 73:
* [[Thousand Yard Stare]]: The arena announcer says Ratchet has one of these.
* [[Villain Song]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6JNhWfejAQ&feature=related Death to Squishies], Courtney Gears' [[Lyrical Dissonance|peppy little]] declaration of robotic genocidal hate.
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: Dr. Nefarious's plan is to [[Unwilling Roboticisation|turn every organic lifeform in the galaxy into robots]], and he actually succeeds in doing so to Skidd McMarxx and everyone in Metropolis. Later in the game, Al is seen analyzing Skidd and remarking that it may be possible to reverse the process, but it is never really stated whether Al succeeds or not. Granted, Skidd does make a very brief appearance in the cinema at the end of the game, back to his normal self, suggesting Al did cure him and everyone in Metropolis.
* [[Who Writes This Crap?]]: The narrator from the vid-comics in the their game, expressing his disbelief on Qwark's supposed "adventures". Considering Qwark wrote the scripts, one can't blame him.
