* FriendlyEnemy: Cobra Queen apologizes for mistaking Freakazoid for another hero, saying it's just so dark in her lair. Freakazoid gives her some advice about hanging up Japanese lanterns, which she thinks is a good idea. Then the fighting starts.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Paul Harvey narrates a flashback showing that Cobra Queen used to be a mere shoplifter, but her using an experimental lotion left in the Sun too long transformed her into a snake-themed supervillain.
-->'''Paul Harvey:''' And now you know the rest of the backstory! Good day!
* GilliganCut: Freakazoid asserts that is absolutely no way whatsoever that he's going down into the sewers. It then cuts to the sewers, but he's really not there; he's at home watching TV. He's down there after the commercial break, though, much to his extreme displeasure.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Atomic Boy has apparently clashed with Cobra Queen multiple times.
* LampshadeHanging:
** Despite his absolute and repeated refusal to go into the sewer, Freakazoid eventually heads down there.
--->'''Freakazoid:''' It's my civic duty! Besides, if I don't, the show just kind of sits there.
** Freakazoid gets the better of Cobra Queen by mocking her SssssnakeTalk and suggesting she say alliterative saying to prove him wrong. She passes out from repeated failed attempts to do so, prompting Freakazoid to question ''why'' that actually worked to begin with.
* RecognitionFailure: Cobra Queen initially mistakes Freakazoid for Atomic Boy, due to how dark it is in her lair.
* ShoutOut:
** When refusing to go into the sewer, Freakazoid is at home watching ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}''.
** Freakazoid annoys Cobra Queen by saying she sounds like [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Sylvester the Cat]].
* SnakesAreSinister: Cobra Queen commands a pair of large and fearsome-looking snakes, though still subject to the usual zany slapstick on this show.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Cobra Queen threatens to turn one of her snakes into "a large wallet" in the event of failure.
