* Team RWBY's MassOhCrap moment when they realize that the Hunter they'd be collaborating with to investigate is Professor Oobleck. This comes directly ''[[GilliganCut after]]'' Ruby said they would be with a (implied) [[TemptingFate cool]] Huntsman, for bonus points. [[FauxHorrific The looks of utter horror]] on Yang and Ruby's faces, Blake's [[BlueWithShock bent-forward 'Seriously?' expression,]] and Weiss' BlankWhiteEyes, just sells it.

* As Watts begins to play his part in Cinder's plan, he grabs a discarded apple from a terminal next to his, casually wipes the blood off of it that clearly came from one of the dead workers, and eats it while using the terminal to cause all manner of technological mayhem. Just the casualty of it all is pretty amusing.
