* "Thanks for the quickie." It first comes off as a [[Dude, Not Funny|sick joke]], probably to tease Lisa and put her in her place, but it takes on a whole new meaning when the film reveals {{spoiler|Lisa was raped in the past}}, and Rippner (who had already figured out what happened in Lisa's past) was intentionally ''triggering her''.
* In the movie ''[[Red Eye (Film)|Red Eye]]'', [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Jackson Rippner]], while flirting with Lisa, acknowledges the violent implications of his [[Jack the Ripper|rather unfortunate name]] with a quip that he killed his parents for the offense. After a [[Beat]], she decides that he was kidding and laughs. Later on, when his [[Psycho for Hire|true colors]] are revealed, she accuses him of lying to her, to which he calmly replies that he has never lied to her, not once -- leaving the implication that, yes, [[Self Made Orphan|he did kill his parents]] just hanging there...
** Also, Rippner's pursuit of Lisa starts out feeling like sexual tension and becomes [[Fridge Horror]] once you realize that Rippner is intentionally triggering her in the hope of violently evoking memories of her past with (implied) sexual assault, intended to make her feel helpless.
