* TerminatorTwosome: An alien cop does show up to hunt down the alien criminal, but he turns out to be the TheWorldsExpertOnGettingKilled and gets gutshot pretty quickly. His only real contribution is giving Jack an alien gun before he dies and explodes.

* BigBadWannabe: The White Boys Gang talk big and [[MoreDakka fire guns a lot]], but the plot makes clear again and again that they are most definitely not the badass criminal outfit they consider themselves to be, culminating with them being completely exterminated by the evil alien in the third act.
* CoolCar: The White Boys drive around in top-of-the-line roadsters like Lamborhinis and Porsches that they purchased with their drug money. Instead of making them cool, it only provides more fuel to the point that the White Boys are just braggarts when they swerve out of the way in a GameOfChicken with Jack Caine to prevent damage to their cars and later Jack is able to march right into their headquarters by distracting the members assigned to guard the entrance by making the car alarms sound.
