Line 34:
* [[Daddy's Girl]]: Eleanor to Subject Delta, much to Sofia's irritation.
** {{spoiler|[[Daddy's Little Villain]]}}: {{spoiler|Eleanor}} in the [[Multiple Endings|bad ending]].
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Sofia Lamb. Once she realizes Eleanor is helping Delta, she sits in the quarantine room with her and watches her every move. Later, {{spoiler|she uses the Big Daddy's link to their Sisters to knock you out by strangling Eleanor.}} Immediately afterward, {{spoiler|she straps you to a table, saying that if they kill you, you'll just go back to a Vita Chamber.}} Later, {{spoiler|she [[Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies|tries to destroy the entire building to kill you regardless of the Vita Chambers]] }}, and then {{spoiler|sabotages the ballast tanks on the escape boat to so that it can only handle enough weight that she can escape}}. ''Then'' {{spoiler|when you're on the final leg of the run to the boat, she's got a huge stack of explosives waiting for you at the door.}}
* [[Darker and Edgier]]. It may seem impossible, but ''[[Bio Shock]] 2'' [[Up to Eleven|manages to get even darker and edgier]] than the first game, at least in some respects.
* [[Deflector Shield]]: The level 3 upgrade for the drill.
Line 95:
* [[Redemption Equals Death]] : {{spoiler|If Subject Delta was evil, but displayed compassion toward others later on, he can choose to knock away Eleanor's syringe when she attempts to absorb him just before his death, causing Eleanor to realize that her "father" would rather die than have her follow down the same path he did.}}
* [[Remember the New Guy]]: Turns out, Sofia Lamb was out of the picture by the time Atlas was picking up steam, but still a forefront in the "Maybe Ryan's not right" train of thought.
* [[Sawed
* [[Scare'Em Straight]]: The purpose of the "Journey to the Surface" ride in Ryan Amusements is to convince Rapture's youth that all that waits for them up there are authority figures ready to reach down and steal their stuff, quash their ambitions, or drag them off to war. Ryan's a bit iffy about the [[Uncanny Valley|creepy animatronics]], but...
{{quote| '''Ryan:''' I spoke to a young man exiting the park after the grand opening, asking him what, if anything, he had learned here. He said his chores didn't seem so bad anymore - as long as mother wouldn't send him to the surface.}}
Line 122:
* [[Book Ends]]: {{spoiler|The game ends with the viewpoint character getting into a bathysphere - just like at the beginning of the first game.}}
* [[Faking the Dead]]: In a sense, {{spoiler|The Thinker to Porter.}}
* [[Fun With Acronyms]]: In Minerva's Den, we are introduced to Rapture's [[Master Computer]], the Rapture Operational Data Interpreter Network, nicknamed "The Thinker". If you notice what the acronym [
* [[Instant AI, Just Add Water]]: The Thinker.
* [[In the Future, Humans Will Be One Race]]: An audio log in the Minerva's Den missions reveals that people in Rapture have begun using plasmids to change their race, as Porter recalls a businessman suggest he splice himself white to get ahead. [[Hand Wave|May or may not explain]] why there's so few characters who aren't of Anglo or Russian descent.
* [[Replacement Goldfish]]: It becomes clear that C. M. Porter attempted to make The Thinker simulate his dead wife. {{spoiler|The last audio diary confirms he succeeded, but he was so creeped out by it (finally realizing that it wasn't and would never be ''her'') that he quickly shut down the simulation.}}
* [[Twist Ending]]: {{spoiler|In the beginning of level, C.M. Porter gives Subject Sigma directions in the game, but after you beat the final boss it is revealed that Sigma '''is''' C.M. Porter and the "C.M. Porter" who was giving him directions is "The Thinker" imitating Porter's voice and personality.}}
* [[Wham! Line]]:
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''The Thinker''': Mainframe reactivated. Confirming user's identity: genetic identity confirmed. Alpha series: Subject Sigma. Former identity: Charles Milton Porter.}}}}
* [[Xanatos Gambit]]: {{spoiler|The Thinker plans pretty much all the events of the game, manipulating the main character and the villain, however, it does this to save Porter. Which makes it a positive example of this trope}}
