* LaserGuidedKarma: Hun, who has dealt out a lot punishments to Stockman, briefly taunts him when Saki announces that he may have Chaplin promoted and Stockman [[DeadlyEuphemism retired]]. Soon after, Saki makes it clear that he trusts Karai more than Hun. Stockman mocks Hun about how he too might be out of a job soon. Hun angrily growls at his face, but Stockman doesn't back down as they are both effectively in the same boat now.
-->'''Saki:''' If your robots prove themselves by destroying the turtles, Dr. Chaplin, then perhaps we can retire your mentor, Dr. Stockman, once and for all.\\
'''Hun:''' ''(grins and leans over to Stockman)'' Looks like someone's going to be out of a job soon.\\
'''Saki:''' I have other matters to attend to. Karai, proceed with the ''other'' operation we discussed.\\
'''Hun:''' Wait... "other operation"? Is there something I should know, Master?\\
'''Stockman:''' ''(smugly)'' Apparently I'm not the only one who's being considered for early retirement.\\
''(Hun growls at him and Stockman laughs)''

* Fiction500: Saki tells the mayor that he's happily wired him a $147 million transfer for the city's operations. That said, even Karai is actually concerned about skyrocketing costs even if Saki's not worried about money where he's going.
** The end of the episode has Karai voice financial concerns to Saki, but Saki isn't worried since "money will be meaningless where [he] is going." We'll learn where he's going in the season finale.
