** To start, Vergilius acts like Arona from VideoGame/BlueArchive, referring to a very confused Dante as "Teacher", and asking them to touch his finger, complete with presenting his index finger on "his side" of the screen.
** In a brief cut to reality, Vergilius is angrily snapping at Ishmael for engaging in PercussiveMaintenance, and tells her to piss off.

However, their hand slips and hits a button, and the wishpower sticker they would have used later in their plan gets used up entirely to give an instant jackpot, immediately making the security suspicious and derailing the entire plan, much to everyone's dismay.

* The way Project Moon's first enterpreise within the world of gacha games deserves a chuckle. The first thing this game developed by a studio of 30 people (10 of which work in their merch cafe) does is [[DemandOverload promptly crash the server]], not being able to support 100,000 people trying to access simultaneously. After the server's online again, several account bugs are patched and rewards are sent out. Then they realize a typo in the beginner's banner so they send out a 10-roll with a free 3*. They test the mailing system again after some compensation was accidentally able to be claimed twice by sending 1 Lunacy...only to send 199 more because they felt bad just sending 1. Then they release the luxcavation dungeons but apply a hotfix within moments after its release.

* Following the disastrous incident at the checkpoint the Sinners meet up with Effie and Saude who stayed behind to meet up with them to debrief them about N Corp's movement towards the same destination as the Sinners. When finishing, they also mention a bunch of morons stirring up trouble responsible for a Code Purple emergency at a checkpoint. They're left guessing who would be dumb enough to do such a thing and ask if the Sinners managed to catch who they were. Dante and Don Quixote's silence tell them that they're talking to said morons responsible for the incident. A flustered Ishmael steers the conversation away before the embarrassment could linger any further.
