* WhoMurderedTheAsshole: Happy is showcased in the flashbacks to not have been a nice guy and everybody in the building, for one reason or another, tried to kill him the same night. In the end, nobody technically killed the asshole - a broken chair dropped him into the pool and he drowned, although the many injuries he got through the night from the various murder attempts made it impossible for him to prevent that. Stokes even makes a sarcastic quip that an AmoralAttorney would have placed all of the guilt on the chair.
