Line 21:
* [[Pygmalion Plot]]: Discussed by Eggsy and Galahad. Galahad expresses disappointment with some of Eggsy's life choices (leaving Marine training to stay with his mother and deadbeat stepdad, falling in with criminals) and Eggsy insists that if he and many of his friends had been born with "silver spoons up [their] asses", they'd make something more of themselves. Eggsy certainly does, when given the chance. Of course, they both acknowledge that there are exceptions: Eggsy's stepdad's gang, and {{spoiler|at least one of the upper-class Kingsman candidates}}.
* [[The Quisling]]: Just about every major politician and celebrity in the world, {{spoiler|including Arthur}}. The only exception we see is the Princess of Sweden (though the number of cells in Valentine's fortress indicate that there are more).
* [[Rescue Sex]]: Mocked -- Princess Tilde of Sweden offers Eggsy anal sex if he'll rescue her from the cell where she's been imprisoned in Richard Valentine's base, and the last wee see of Eggsy in the film is him entering her cell with her explicit approval. (Given that she and Eggsy are in a relationship as of the start of the sequel ''[[Kingsman: The Golden Circle]]'' and [[Standard Hero Reward|get married]] at the end of that film, it must have been good for everyone involved.)
* [[Shoot Your Mate|Shoot Your Dog]]: The final test to become a Kingsman. {{spoiler|The gun is filled with blanks. The point is that an agent must be willing to kill anyone for the sake of a mission. Roxy passes, Eggsy does not.}}
* [[Shout Out]]: Oh so many to classic (and not-so-classic but very popular) works of [[Spy Fiction]].
