** It's very unlikely that a bottle thrown into the Baltic sea would end up in the Riddarholmen Quay, as that would require it to float upstreams. Mind you, if not for that then We wouldn't have gotten those opening shots of the inner city of Stockholm.

* BattleDiscretionShot: The fight between Mr. Garbo and Inez is partially offscreen, as they end up in a closet from which she sends him flying. When he returns for more, she kicks him through the side of it.



* LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn: The violin music playing during the dream sequence turns out to be provided by Inez, her dream self apparently being a ShipperOnDeck for Lennart and Berit who LikesToWatch.

* RealMenWearPink: After his half-assed attempt to rescue Director Ohlsson, Kalle is lens some dry but tacky ladies clothes by Mona. Walter subsequently locks him for trying to assert his authority while wearing women's pants. A double-mutiny and some InsaneTrollLogic later, and the crew decides that wearing women's pants ''is'' in fact a sign of authority.

* ScewThisImOuttaHere: Attempted. After catching his tenants trying to steal his boat, Mr. Garbo locks them into their house, telling them that he's going to call the cops on them and then move to Hollywood to marry Esther Williams. Of course, he's just as stuck on Ensamholmen as they are.

** Kalle, following his SanitySlippage, decides to just screw the crayfish party and sail to Jamaica instead, [[MadnessMantra endlessly repeating]] the opening verse of "Nisse ville sjöman bli" (Nisse wanted to become a sailor), where the eponymous character does the same. [[{{Irony}} He ends up getting the ship stranded on Ensamholmen instead.]]


Added DiffLines:

* WalkDontSwim: Berit comes up with the idea of having Director Ohlsson steal Mr. Garbo's boat engine by walking on the ocean floor with a barrel over his head. A relatively realistic example as the director is keeping his head above the surface and merely using the barrel as a disguise, while having metal weights strapped to his feet. The plan works until he accidentally turns on the engine itself after removing it, sending him out to sea.

* TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: Mr. Garbo eventually shows that he ''does'' have a letter and a signed photograph from Esther Williams as "proof" of their relationship, and that he is quite rich, meaning that he ''might'' just have had a chance of starting a new life in Hollywood. Of course, for that he too would have had to get off the island first...

* DeliciousDistraction: During their heist, Lennart, Berit and Inez bring sausages to distract Mr. Garbo's dog, and fishes to distract his cat. It works.



* MundaneMadeAwesome: Mr. Garbo making TV dinner by... using his gas oven lighter like a gun, flinging butter into the pan, cutting down a sausage by [[WeaponizedHeadgear throwing his hat at it]] and giving it a BladeSpam with his knife, violently crushing an egg and tossing away the shells, and "cracking" his drink cabinet as though it was a safe.

** After Garbo locks Lennart, Berit and Inez in their house, they can only talk to Kalle, Mona and Walter by shouting through the attic window. What follows is a mostly casual conversation... done entirely with NoIndoorVoice.

Added DiffLines:

* CelebrityCrush: Mr. Garbo is apparently keeping correspondence with various Hollywood starlets, ([[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and]] Creator/CaryGrant), including at least Creator/MyrnaLoy, Creator/ShirleyTemple and Creator/GingerRogers, but it is Esther Williams he plans to marry after moving there. He's shown eating dinner with a photograph of Williams, which he talks to as though she was actually there.


Added DiffLines:

* LostAtSea: Director Ohlsson disappears from the plot after accidentally getting stuck on a drifting floating jetty and getting knocked unconscious. [[BrickJoke He returns later, when the jetty drifts ashore near Garbo's cabin.]]


Added DiffLines:

* SacredHospitality: For our protagonists, these definitely apply to crayfish parties. Kalle, Mona and Walter treat Lennart starting to eat before their arrival as a vile betrayal, (with Mona in particular feeling downright ''traumatized and violated'' by it.) Nevermind that they're stranded at sea. They get their revenge by indulging in their alcohol all by themselves, which makes their compatriots on the island furious.


Added DiffLines:

* SkewedPriorities: The prospect of getting his captain's hat dropped into the sea is such that Kalle actually agrees to go down beneath deck to avoid it, allowing Mona to lock him in and commit mutiny.

* PlotIrrelevantVillain: Mr. Garbo, who essentially exists to provide our protagonists with a big, additional obstacle. His goals ([[VillainsOutShopping enjoying his TV dinner]], and eventually moving to Hollywood and marrying Esther Williams) are in no way connected to or even impeded by the goals of his tenants (reuniting for a crayfish party.) The conflict only starts because of him continually holding the JerkassBall and utterly refusing to help them in any way.

* SawStarWarsTwentySevenTimes: Both Berit and Lennart are familiar with the (fictional) film "''Mission in Hong Kong''", the latter knowing it by heart. This becomes convenient when they sync their heist to the film's bridge demolition scene to mask the sounds of their break-in.

* ImplausibleDeniability: Berit, Lennart and Inez deny being the people who broke into Mr. Garbo's cabin... even though they're the only other people on the island and Garbo got a pretty good look at the intruders.
