Line 87:
* [[Disposable Vagrant]]: Several lived in the train yard where Vince "died." They're being arrested on trumped up charges rather than killed though.
* [[The Dragon]]: Scales, albeit one who is at open war with the [[Big Bad]].
* [[Dueling Shows]]: Though the style of the two shows beyond throwbacks to the Golden/Silver Age is null, it can't be unintentional that the show appeared shortly after [[No Ordinary Family]], another superhero show. Humourously, NOF has a Marvel (edgy, gritty) flavor within a DC (four color) universe, while [[The Cape (2010 TV series)|The Cape]] is more DC (Batman, more defined moral lines) in a Marvel (cynical, city of corrupt cops) universe.
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: The Cape specializes in these, but becomes especially notable in "From Russia With Love" when Gregor reveals himself and taunts "Where is a hero when you need one?" Well, when you give Vince a straight line like that....
* [[Enemy Mine]]: In "Scales" the Cape and Fleming have to work together to stop a runaway train.
Line 160:
* [[Name of Cain]]: The [[Code Name]] of assassin Raimonde LeFleur is Cain.
* [[No Escape but Down]]: Vince gets away from Cain this way in the second episode.
* [[Non-Indicative Name]]: [[The Cape (2010 TV series)|The Cape]] is actually an example of [[The Cowl]]. Also it's really more of a cloak...
* [[No One Could Survive That]]: Various explosions.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Appears to be at the center of The Lich's motives.
