Line 101:
* [[Papa Wolf]]: An important take-away lesson: do ''not'' anger [[God]] by oppressing His people and murdering their babies. You really won't like the [[Pay Evil Unto Evil|blowback]].
* [[Pet the Dog]]: Subverted. Seti clearly cares about his sons. When he finds Moses reeling at the fate of the Hebrew children, Seti hugs him, speaks in the soothing tones of [[Patrick Stewart]]...''and tells Moses it was justified because they were just slave children.'' The worst part of this is that ''Seti thought this would make Moses feel better''.
* [[Plague of Locusts]]: A swarm of locusts appears during "The Plagues" musical number (of course, as the event is the [[Trope Namer]]).
* [[Playing Against Type]]: It is a bit unnerving to hear Patrick Stewart (as Pharaoh Seti) justifying ''murdering thousands of innocent Hebrew babies'' in that soothing [[Team Dad]] voice.
