Line 194:
* [[Ignored Epiphany]]: Bobby Jacks. He quickly comes to the realisation that he's one of the bad guys, but immediately after he decides that he's gone too far to try and repent. He even supplements this with a quote from [[Macbeth]] (the ''exact'' same one which Macbeth himself uses in this selfsame situation).
* [[Ironic Echo]]: in a scene that's an homage to [[The Dark Knight|the Joker]], Blood Boy says "Why so serious?" as part of his intimidating speech to Matthew Wittany. {{spoiler|He then attacks Matt, viciously beating him with his gun, as well as killing Matt's friend, Corbin. The tides eventually turn, though, and Matt gets out his own gun and shoots Blood Boy with it. What does he say while shooting? [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|"Why so serious?"]]}}
* [[I Shall Taunt You]]: Happens on two separate occasions with the same characters: Tyson Neills and Bobby Jacks. The first time around, Tyson taunts Bobby in an attempt to provoke a fight with Troy [[Mc Cann]]McCann (to raise his 'street credit'). The second time is on the island itself, in an attempt to make him lose his cool and do something stupid. {{spoiler|It backfires, Bobby ''does'' lose his temper, but in the midst of his rage ''kills'' Tyson.}}
* [["It's Not Rape If You Enjoyed It"]]: Adam Reeves attempts to justify his rape of Maxie Dasai by asserting that her body's arousal meant that she was into it. It's left ambiguous, but strongly implied that he brought her to orgasm (Reeves himself certainly thought so). [[Complete Monster|He is the only one that thought it was okay]].
* [[Instant Death Bullet]]: Usually averted, but played straight in the v3 Endgame when {{spoiler|Rizzolo shoots Lulu in the gut, and she falls dead instantly.}}
Line 208:
* [[Near-Rape Experience]]: J.R. Rizzolo's torture of Laeil Burbank ALMOST starts out with a rape scene, but then Riz decides it'd be a better idea to [[Eye Scream|cut out her eye instead]]. This was due to Riz' writer planning a rape scene, but deciding at the last minute that he wasn't up for it.
* [[Never Bring a Knife to A Fist Fight]]: Subverted when Ric Chee and Bobby Jacks fight with [[Good Old Fisticuffs]]. When Bobby realises that, conversely to his expectations, he is getting beaten down mercilessly (by a guy with no combat expertise whatsoever) he pulls out a scalpel and {{spoiler|immediately fatally stabs Ric.}}
* [[Offhand Backhand]]: Bobby Jacks pulls off the firearm based version with Andy [[Mc Cann]]McCann. Bobby hears the latter cry out behind him and shoots him in the head with a pistol without even turning around.
* [[Paper Cutting]]: Maxie Dasai gets hit in the face [[Annoying Arrows|by an arrow]] and comes away with a minor wound across her cheek, somehow managing to avoid any serious harm.
* [[Pay Evil Unto Evil]]: [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]] Lenny Priestly kills {{spoiler|Viki Valentine}} and runs off into the woods, leaving Gabe McCallum and Steve Digaetano to mourn her. Next time they meet, Gabe shoots down {{spoiler|Lenny's sister, Elizabeth Priestly}} in a fit of rage, despite Steve's best efforts.
