* Mr. Green in the third ending. After being the PluckyComicRelief and a complete coward the entire movie he gets his moment when Wadsworth reveals he's the real blackmailer and Mr. Green, actually an undercover FBI agent, pulls out a gun and shoots him. When the FBI arrives and asks to know who killed him Mr. Green calmly tells them "I did. In the hall. With the revolver. (...) I'm gonna go home and sleep with my wife." Smile and walk away.

* Miss Scarlet in the first ending gets a good showing as the {{BigBad}}. Not only for Yvette and her pulling off the murders, but also as she reveals her real agenda as a FemmeFataleSpy. All the secrets Mr. Boddy was using for blackmail were secrets she learned through Yvette and was going to sell to the highest bidder. Even better, she was ''right'' about the gun having one bullet left. If the doorbell hadn't rung and distracted her long enough for Wadsworth to subdue her, she would have killed him and won!

* The real butler in the third ending. Realizing that he's in a room with six people who probably want his employer dead, what does he do? He turns things around by convincing the guests for a split-second to go after Wadsworth. Yeah, it didn't work. Still, think about the balls it took to make that play.

* Wadsworth in the third ending as he reveals the methods that almost every member of the cast used to carry out the murders. Capping it off with the revelation that ''he's Mr. Boddy'' and that everyone played into his hands by getting rid of his network of spies. If it wasn't for Mr. Green's shot above, he would have gotten away with all of it.

* The film must have been quite the acting challenge for most of the cast. Because of the multiple endings, there are scenarios in which a character is guilty of murder and/or has a secret identity and other scenarios where they are innocent. So the actors had to play both realities simultaneously and make them seem equally plausible. They managed to pull it off very well.
