* [[More Dakka]]: His vest holds ''six guns.''

* [[Papa Wolf]]

* [[Playing Against Type]]: The [[The Stoic|stone-cold]] veteran [[Hitman ~~With~~ a Heart|hitman]], is played by ''Billy Connolly'' of all people. He's done serious roles before, but not like ''this.''

** [[He Really Can Act (Sugar Wiki)|He Really Can Act]]

* [[Throw-Away Guns]]: His signature gun vest. Justified, as it makes a seasoned FBI detective believe he was six men instead of one, making it harder to be traced to him.

Line 85:

* [[Butt Monkey]]: Greenly just can't seem to catch a break.

* [[Distracted By the Sexy]]: Greenly is even more retarded than usual around Special Agent Bloom.

* [[It Has Been an Honor]]: {{spoiler|Greenly's}} last words to the Saints.

* [[Overly Long Name|Overly Long Last Name]]: If you're wondering why a South Boston detective has the [[Sarcasm Mode|imposing]] name of Dolly, it's because his actual last name is Dollapoppaskalious. This is lampshaded in the first movie when Smecker manages to pronounce it.

Line 101:

* [[As Himself]]: David Della Rocco.

* [[Butt Monkey]]: Both from his fellow mob dudes, who call him "funny man" and make him tell racist jokes, and from the MacManus brothers, who mess with him every so often and put him on "bitch detail" during their jobs. But in contrast to the mafia's decision to just get rid of him, Connor and Murphy {{spoiler|go ballistic when Yakavetta murders him}}.

* [[The Farmer and ~~The~~ Viper]]: {{spoiler|Louie uses the Scorpion and Frog fable variant to explain why he betrayed Noah after they had worked together for so many years. But he also ruminates that like the scorpion, he lost everything by his betrayal, because he was no longer useful to the Mafia.}}
