** Falman's place doesn't allow pets either, Breda is phobic about dogs, so Havoc offers to take the dog. His (Joking?) remarks about dogs [[EatTheDog "tasting good stir-fried"]] gets the dog taken away from him.

* [[HeelFaceTurn Darius and Heinkel]] pretending to take Ed "hostage" when their hiding place at a local clinic is unexpectedly found by soldiers, in an attempt to bluff their way past the other group. Ed spends the entire time blankly chewing on a piece of bread while the chimeras haul him around like a slab of meat. In the manga, one of the soldiers starts to cry when he thinks that they've taken an innocent kid hostage.

Darius and Heinkel also gleefully ham up their "evilness" while Edward is pissed at yet again being called "small".

** As the meeting is ending, Wrath asks Alphonse to stay a bit longer...then proceeds to stab right into him, just like when he killed Martel previously. However, this time, after withdrawing his sword, there's no blood, so he dismisses the group. They calmly leave the room, pause, and finally Edward and Alphonse have a freakout over the fact that Mei Chang, who has been forced to hide inside Al's leg to avoid getting stabbed, just barely survived. Mei Chang and Xiao May themselves are seen in an X-Ray cam trembling in unadulterated terror within Alphonse, all while Mustang stares at the Elric brothers with a bewildered expression.

*** Special mention goes to Ed and Pinako's introductory exchange, showing how ''absolutely nothing has changed between them over the years.''
---->'''Pinako:''' I know I haven't seen you for a while, Ed. But you've gone and grown...''[[BerserkButton smaller.]]''\\
'''Ed:''' ''Granny.'' You've got it wrong, you're supposed to say, ''"How BIG you've grown lately, Ed!"''\\
'''Pinako:''' ''[[BrutalHonesty But why would I say something so clearly untrue?]]''\\
'''Ed:''' '''''[[RageBreakingPoint I'M STILL TALLER THAN YOU, YOU MINI-HAG!!]]'''''

** The following episode also has a humorous moment based on this, where Ed theorizes that Al's body on the other side is drawing nutrition from his own body to sustain itself. This leads logically to the conclusion that Ed is suffering from minor malnutrition, which then leads to a [[TeensAreShort conclusion]] that [[TheNapoleon Ed]] doesn't like.

* In the manga during the chapters involving Greed, Ed has to go to Southern HQ for his annual State Alchemist report. Fuhrer Bradley happens to be there and despite Ed having to do a bunch of paperwork because it's late, he just stamps it straight away and laughs.

* Fuhrer King Bradley, hoping to recruit Izumi Curtis as a state Alchemist, visits her butcher shop. When her husband, Sig, suspicious of the pair, refuses to reveal her location to them, Major Armstrong takes matters into his own hands and initiates a flexing competition with Mister Curtis, which leads to a manly handshake.

* Fuhrer Mustang vs. Fuhrer Olivier: During one of the manga yonkomas, the men were discussing whether Mustang or Olivier would eventually be elected the next Fuhrer. Despite Olivier's superior connections and status, the men were firmly supportive of Mustang due to his Mini Skirt Uniform policy... that is, until Olivier announces that, if it helps with the work efficiency, ''she'' also has no objections against the Mini Skirt Uniform policy. Olivier's popularity ranking immediately goes through the ''roof''.
* One omake has the guys in East branch wondering who would win, Ed or Roy? Roy doesn't care, because Ed isn't around to fight anyway...only to learn from Riza that only is Ed around, but is willing to take Roy on. Roy points out that a battle between State alchemists would cause immense collateral damage, but Hughes just rented the parade grounds. Roy insists that the Fuhrer would ''never'' allow such a duel to happen!...we cut to Bradley, who thinks it would be jolly good fun, and wishes Roy luck. At the end, Roy wins the duel, but he and the spectators are made to clean up the parade grounds...except for Hughes, who escaped beforehand. Needless to say, this was adapted into an episode of the first anime which was also pretty funny. Even better: this is Bradley's ''first appearance'' in the manga.
* The Omake where Havoc meets Catherine, Armstrong's little sister. When Armstrong describes her as having "My features" Havoc has a terrifying ImagineSpot of Armstrong in a dress. (We later see that the siblings have the same patterns around their eyes) Later on, Catherine, in response to a question about her hobbies, says, "I...like the piano..."
