* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Beebs full name is only revealed in a FreezeFrameBonus--nobody calls him "Bulldog" until "Us & Them" where Us refers to him as "Bulldog" before given the insistence to call him "Beebs" as that's what his friends call him.

* {{Catfishing}}: Beebs and Shrike's first impression of Nobert is the profile picture on his contract. In it, he looks a lot more sinister and well-adjusted than the kooky NervousWreck he turns out to be when the duo meets him in person. Combined with him hiding in a remote location for his own safety, it's implied he did this to try and cover his tracks from those seeking him... But the facade is immediately broken the second Beebs and Shrike notice how the contract is written; it lines up with Nobert's broken speech patterns perfectly. It's later shown that the picture [[spoiler: Queen Potoo]] gave Kara for her contract is dead-on to his actual appearance.

* AnimalMotifs: Agness bears some angler fish influences in her design; she has a lure atop her head that she uses as the head of her L.A.W. scientist design, and a gaping, toothy maw dominates her actual face. The resemblance ties in to how she manipulates Beebs and Shrike into luring the Lythop colony to their doom.

* FlippingTheBird: Does this frequently, especially toward Scratch.



* GunNut: Per his [[AllThereInTheManual profile splash]], he believes "a hot bolt of plasma" solves most problems. Lampshaded in episode 3, after Shrike shoots at the possessed arm of his ship, but it reflects all over the room

* VagueAge: Old enough to have his own mercenary company, but otherwise his age isn't stated--looks to be anywhere from mid-twenties to early-thirties. Kara's profile on him outright says his age is unknown, as opposed to Beebs being 32 Galactic years old.

Queen Tyneen > Non-Mammalian Mammaries: changed "subverted" to "averted" and updated the link accordingly ("it's not a subverted trope because the trope is never hinted")


* NonMammalianMammaries: Seemingly [[SubvertedTrope subverted]]. She is a dinosaur-like alien and is noticeably flat-chested. The fact she asks Kara to "sign [her] ''pecs''" rather than "breasts" also implies she has no mammaries to speak of.

* BerserkButton: Damaging the Bucket in any way is a surefire way to make Scratch more violent than he already is.

Added DiffLines:

* DidntThinkThisThrough: In the first episode, he threatens to blow up the Bucket if the Monkey Wrench crew refuses to hand Nobert over to him. Shrikes agrees and asks Scratch to reveal their location so that they can proceed with the exchange. Scratch excitedly does so... And Shrike promptly points one of the Bucket's heavy guns towards said location.

Debuting in "Ghost Egg," Nobert offers Monkey Wrench some money to help him find a safe haven from the titular threat. He's deeply eccentric, making communication with him difficult and maintaining one's patience with him a tall task, ''especially'' for Shrike. Unfortunately, he also has a substantial bounty on his head, attracting multiple unsavory characters' attention as Beebs and Shrike try to fulfill their end of the deal.
