* CuttingCorners: Malory issues an energy saving mandate for ISIS which involves low energy light bulbs and low-flow toilets. This causes issues for the copy machine and Krieger's cloning project. The last straw is Pam using the toilets after going to the women's bathroom. That leads to Malory to scrap the mandate and get rid of all of the mentioned items, as well as barring Pam from the women's bathroom.

* {{Irony}}: Lana was actually a former ecological affro'd hippie who tried to smear Malory with blood for wearing a fur coat, but Malory then decided to give her a job as an ISIS agent. The next thing Lana knows, she was already in another nation trying to kill a target under Malory's orders.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: After Archer blows the engine of the airboat, he drags the boat through the bayou in waist-deep water, claiming that he's facing his "three greatest fears" in the process. After some alcohol and prying from Lana, [[HiddenDepths it turns out one of his greatest fears is alligators]]-- so much so that he's memorized the name, age, and location of every fatal gator attack in the country. Earlier, as he's bowfishing, Archer tries to haul in a trout... and is met instead by an enormous, angry gator with an arrow in its head.
