* TruthInTelevision: Yeah, BDSM and bondage fans being TooKinkyToTorture is a common joke, but it is extremely rare in real life. Actually, even for the ones fantasizing about kidnapping role-play scenarios, for the vast majority of people into it, being kidnapped, BoundAndGagged and kept captive by an ultra-violent mafia against ransom, would be a very unpleasant and traumatizing experience.

** Fizzarolli's head in the present day is never shown without one of his jester hats; the one time he isn't wearing one is when he's asleep in bed with Asmodeus, and even then he keeps his head covered by the blanket until he reaches for a hat and puts it on before getting out of bed. Furthermore, his initial argument with Blitzo in the Greed Ring has him comment about how his horns ''were'' bigger than Blitzo's, specifically highlighting the past tense. Both details hint at the fact that, per their DarkAndTroubledPast, Fizzarolli ''lost'' his horns in the explosion, the stubs quickly falling apart and cauterizing themselves, which he now keeps covered.

* FanDisservice: For BDSM fans. Expect the creepy kind of tied up hostages situations. Sure, it's not the first time in the show that a character is BoundAndGagged in a perilous situation. But it's the first time a parallel with bondage is drawn, and the episode insists on that.

** Ozzie mentions that Fizzarolli will be attending the rehersal for a clown pageant while in Greed, and Fizz mentions that he knows Ozzie isn't "big on the whole Mammon thing". Both the pageant and Mammon are seen in the next episode, and we learn that saying Ozzie doesn't like his boyfriend working for [[BadBoss Mammon]] is a huge understatement.

* DramaticIrony: Stolas comes to ask Asmodeus for help on romancing Blitzo, but Ozzie refuses to help because Fizz hates him. Meanwhile, the two imps spend the episode discussing the fire that lead to Fizz hating Blitzo in the first place and, while Fizz can't bring himself to forgive him right now, they agree to try again on better terms. When Ozzie tells Fizzarolli about it, Fizz tells him to let Stolas have what he asked for since he's "earned it."

* FreezeFrameBonus: The gossip tabloid Fizz checks in the morning not only calls Ozzie a hypocrite for, as the embodiment of lust, having a lovey-dovey relationship with an imp; the same article calls out Fizzarolli for [[{{Golddigger}} using Asmodeus for his "fat wallet"]] aside of his fat dick, and [[MaliciousSlander even accusing him of double-timing with Mammon]], showing that people believe the only way an imp could get that level of fame and influence is only if [[CastingCouch he's sleeping with his superiors]]. No wonder Fizz goes above and beyond to protect Ozzie's reputation and keep him from seeing it.

Added 'Snap Back' for Stolas' miraculous recovery. Wasn't sure if it went here or on YMMV, but there was no confirmation that Goetias have healing properties, only that they can be hurt/killed with blessed weapons. If I missed something, please say so.

* SnapBack: In Stolas' last appearance in 'Western Energy', he was hospitalized after Striker tortured him with a blessed knife, having been 'hurt pretty bad'. However, in this episode, [[UnexplainedRecovery he is perfectly fine]]. According to Striker, he told Crimson he had a 'royal on the ropes last week' (implying Stolas), confirming that this episode takes place a week later from that incident.
