Line 168:
* [[Tongue Suicide]]: After being induced by Hannibal, Miggs commited suicide by swallowing his own tongue.
* [[Touch of the Monster]]: In ''Hannibal'', after Clarice passes out from the gunshot wound in her shoulder, Hannibal carries her bridal-style to safety (well, safer than a pen full of flesh-eating pigs, anyway).
* [[TranssexualismTransgender]]: 'Buffalo Bill' thinks he is a trans woman, though if you trust [[Word of God|Lecter]], he's not. He doesn't want to be ''a'' woman: he wants to be ''his mother''.
* [[Twofer Token Minority]]: Reba, blind and female. Also invoked by a line of dialogue in the book, which is now on the trope's quote page.
* [[Uncanny Valley]]: Intentionally invoked by the acting of Ted Levine as Buffalo Bill, when he mocks Catherine's screaming. The flat, emotionless sound, combined with his completely blank facial expression create an effect that is entirely inhuman.
