* '''Exploited''': [[ArtisticLicenseLaw Technically,]] this makes Jack's death assisted suicide rather than straight-up murder, doesn't it? Depending on how the laws work in this universe, Jack's murderer might actually get away with it.

* '''Discussed''': "If I had to peg you, I'd say you're the type who's [[HonorBeforeReason very big on honor.]] If I ever take you prisoner, you'll just tell me to kill you already. [[SarcasmMode I suppose I should respect that.]]"
