Line 14:
* [[The Ace]]: {{spoiler|Number 7 in seasons 1 and 3, who made it all the way to the final treatment without quitting, was the last person standing, and won multiple tests in the process.}}
** {{spoiler|In season one, Number 7 never quit a single treatment. At ''worst'', he tied for first on any given task.}}
* [[A Death in Thethe Limelight]]: The main cue someone's about to quit the treatment? The "Red Button Shot".
* [[All the Worlds Are Aa Stage]]: Non-video game example; in the season 2 finale, VAL has {{spoiler|Numbers 7 and 8}} do a number of activities that are milder versions of that season's tests and treatments.
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: Most definitely Number 7 from Season 3.0. He seemed to find the idea to be hilarious. "The other contestants must think I'm gay for sure! Or a girl! Hahaha!"
* [[An Aesop]]: It is not uncommon for VAL to have a heart-to-heart chat with one of the contestants, one that points out their character flaws. The players often learn about themselves this way.
Line 37:
* [[Everyone Meets Everyone]]: Averted. The contestants NEVER meet. The sole exception is in season three, which still averts the trope: each contestant meets one other contestant.
** Correct, they meet at the reunion- err... union.
* [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]
* [[Fake Video Camera View]]: Used when the contestants compose video diaries.
* Fanservice: A good amount of challenges either require or encourage the contestants taking their clothes off.
Line 52:
** Several guests outright state this as a creed during the experiment.
** The line was repeated verbatim in Season 3.0, to be exact.
* [[In the End You Are Onon Your Own]]
* [[Jump Scare]]: Right when VAL is talking about the scents the contestants will be smelling, and at the tenth scent... Roadkill. A picture of a dead fox is shown.
* [[The Mad Hatter]]: A few of the contestants admit to being this. Seriously, anyone who agrees to be on this show must question the benifits of sanity.
Line 78:
* [[Video Game Caring Potential]] - Sometimes large amounts of food that certain players win are "shared" between other players on a whim. Since VAL makes no suggestions towards it, this doesn't happen very often, at least compared to...
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]] - In Season 2 and onwards, much more interaction between players occurs. This typically consists of taking away luxuries from, and giving punishments to, the other players, causing rivalries between pods.
* [[What You Are in Thethe Dark|What You Are In Your Pod]]
* [[You Are Number Six]]: VAL never refers to the contestants by name, only by the number on their pod.
** Subverted in the season finale of 4.0. After {{spoiler|number 6 (who was formerly number 7 on 2.0) washes out for the second time, as he exits the pod VAL refers to him as number...Tyler. Definitely a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]].}}
