* FiveSecondForeshadowing: With the X-Men winning against the Starjammers, Corsair tells Raza to recalibrate the stun ray for humans. Raza is hesitant out of concern for Corsair, meaning the guy isn't a HumanAlien. More, Jean then learns just who Corsair really is.
* GoodIsNotNice: The Starjammers are completely opposed to D'Ken and want to end his threat to the galaxy. It's just the way they go about it involves stealing the crystal and fighting with the X-Men. Cyclops is particularly disturbed by how Corsair wants him to kill D'Ken.

* TheNeedsOfTheMany: Corsair doesn't want D'Ken to get the crystal, but he's willing to risk it for the chance to kill him and avenge his beloved wife. Cyclops is incredulous over this, both out of a disdain for killing and due to the high stakes. Corsair counters that D'Ken getting the crystal is inevitable, so he believes that letting the man live is what will put those billions at risk.

* SecretSecretKeeper: Jean reads Corsair's mind and sees images of Scott and Alex as children, meaning he's their father. She never gets a chance to tell Cyclops this, and she refuses to reveal this to Wolverine.
Added DiffLines:
* SuperStrength: Beast tries to hold up the closing door, but even Wolverine helping out doesn't make a difference. Rogue effortlessly takes care of it.
* ThatsAnOrder: In the event things go wrong, Corsair tells the crew to immediately flee rather than wait for him to try to get back to the ship. The other Starjammers refuse, and he has to outright order them to do this.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Corsair wants Cyclops to take D'Ken by surprise and his power at full strength. Cyclops is troubled by this, seeing it as an affront to everything he believes in. Corsair wants to avenge his dead wife, but he also points out that Cyclops would be eliminating the greatest threat to the galaxy and saving billions. Cyclops reluctantly agrees, but D'Ken's treachery and the timely arrival of the other X-Men mean he never actually has to try.
