* When Mr. Traveler and Curly reach the end of the Labyrinth, they find a huge rock you can't both open.

He starts doing so... then suddenly knocks both of them back and shouts "ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME?"
** What makes this even better is that, after Curly asks for help, Balrog's theme just ''stops'', as Balrog blinks a few times as if to say "Did she just...?"

* After busting Kazuma out of a room in Grasstown that he was trapped in, he and Professor Booster notice a nearby motorcycle. Kazuma deduces that it still works, he and Professor Booster get on board, Kazuma starts the ignition... [[DidntThinkThisThrough and realizes too late that he has no idea how to control the motorcycle]], resulting in him and Professor Booster crash-landing near the teleporter to Mimiga Village and damaging the motorcycle beyond repair.

* Talk to the Mimigas during the battle against the Doctor, one of them will snark about the "interesting priorities you've got".
