* MusicalisInterruptus: Lunella does this during Beyonder’s first song, cutting him off before he can explain how he will be deciding humanity’s fate. The second time is after he reveals this and sings another song about how humanity is doomed.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Even after purposely leaving his ideas out of the project, Lunella genuinely feels bad after Eduardo finds out she lied to him. Lunella thought she was doing the right thing, and didn’t mean to upset him. She eventually apologizes in the end, and rebuilds their project together to make up for hurting Eduardo’s feelings, even if they don’t win the science fair.

* PoorCommunicationKills:
** Lunella tries her best to take over the entire science fair project without giving her partner Eduardo a chance. Eventually, he gets the message and makes his own project. Luckily for them both, Lunella admits she was wrong to look down at him and offers her science to finish it, both reconciling and sharing credit as they were initially assigned.
** Lunella interrupts the Beyonder's song, not knowing that the reason he came to Earth to study humanity was to determine their worth. When she vents about how "useless" she accuses Eduardo of being, he decides that is enough to make his case to erase Earth and its humans. When she begs to reconsider, he puts the fate of the world on her ''and'' Eduardo winning.
