Line 33:
* [[Audible Gleam]]
* [[Audible Sharpness]]: Wonder Woman's TV series' tiara [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EykZgkC8l58 makes a strange sound] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qahSU4RYblY when she uses it as a boomerang]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsrOK8fkcWE Her lasso of truth makes an "snap" sound when she lassoes someone, and there is always a peal of thunder when Diana Prince] [[Everything's Better with Spinning|spins]] [[Transformation Sequence|to change into]] [[Wonder Woman]].
* [[Badass Damsel]]: Well, ''yeah'', this is Wonder Woman here. She tended to be captured and tied up a lot, but always fit this Trope in the end.

Naturally, she breaks free of the her restraints, and takes Fausta down. Oh, and while that's happening, his only means of calling for backup is a rotory phone - even when you consider how [[Technology Marches On]], that was rather poor planning.
* [[Think Unsexy Thoughts]]: After immortal Princess Diana of [[Lady Land|Paradise Island]] invokes [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]] when he sees a man for the first time, her mother hilariously invokes this trope:
