=== This work contains examples of: ===
* [[Accidental Aiming Skills]]: Tony shoots someone accurately the first time he picks up a gun, and doesn't know how. The second time, he shoots someone's ear off. He also grabs a thrown knife out of the air, but no one else sees it.
* [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]]: Between Victor and Rose.
Line 13:
* [[Funny Bruce Lee Noises]]: Done by Tony while practicing with a katana in one scene.
* [[Gun Stripping]]: Victor Maynard is trying to teach Tony the tricks of the trade. Surprisingly Tony manages to put the gun together... but only to have it fly apart when he picks it up.
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Guy!]]: [[Harry Potter|Ron Weasley!]] And [[Shaun of the Dead|Phil!]] And BILL NIGHY!
** [[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy|Arthur Dent]] is Maynard's rival.
*** Clearly the reason Dixon is such a good assassin is because he's [[Sherlock|John Watson]]!
* [[Ho Yay]]: The scene with Victor and Tony in the bathroom is the best example.
* [[In Love Withwith the Mark]]: Victor is initially unable to kill Rose due to chance, but he grows interested in her and agrees to protect her. They end up falling in love.
* [[In Training]]: Tony, under Victor's tutelage.
* [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: Rose
* [[May -December Romance]]: Victor and Rose.
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Victor, by his mother, Rose, among other people. While he's not really a [[Camp Straight]], his personality fits the stereotype of an uptight, closeted/repressed gay man.
* [[That Poor Cat]]: When Rose is trying to quietly escape Maynard's home out a window, she throws her heavy luggage out the window, prompting this. Earlier, we'd seen the same cat painted neon pink after Victor cuts loose for his birthday.
