* LaserGuidedKarma: Julia talks of the terror she felt for years married to Vicious, waking up and wondering if today was the day he was going to kill her.

* NotQuiteDead: While Gren saves Spike at the start of the episode, Spike turns up at the end without any explanation on how he survived this time. Jet isn't surprised, comparing him to a [[StealthInsult cockroach]] in his [[CockroachesWillRuleTheEarth ability to survive anything]].
-->'''Faye:''' What the hell...we thought you were dead!
-->'''Spike:''' Yeah, I get that a lot.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: Ana goes to hand Spike a pistol just when Jet and Faye burst into the nightclub with guns drawn, thinking she's going to shoot him.

* ShootTheRope: Faye uses the guns on her Red Tail to part the ropes binding Spike and Jet to the church columns.

* SplitScreen: Spike (with GunsAkimbo) and Jet taking on Vicious' goons.
