* [[Different As Night and Day]]: Mikael and Lisbeth are an odd couple. Also, Lisbeth's twin sister Camilla was a "normal" teenager, pretty much the antithesis of Lisbeth in every way (however, she seems to have taken the side of the father who badly abused her mother). She never actually appears onstage in the existing three books, and Lisbeth makes no effort to trace her. It seems likely that Larsson had in mind a role for her (possibly an unpleasant one) in one of the books he died before writing.

* [[Distressed Dude]]: Mikael Blomquist is captured by the mass murderer, locked in an underground torture room, chained, stripped naked, humiliated and explicitly threatened with rape, when Salander breaks in to save him, chase and destroy the villain. A precise gender mirror image of the classic [[Disressed Damsel]] tropes.

* [[Downer Ending]]: {{spoiler|Lisbeth realizes she's fallen in love with Mikael, and decides to tell him. She buys him a Christmas present, and on the way to give it to him, [[Ship Sinking|sees him on the way to his apartment with his part-time lover Erika]]. She then walks away and tosses the present in a dumpster, berating herself for being so foolish as to fall in love}}.
