* BewareTheNiceOnes: Bill the orphan is introduced in the first clip as a wholesome little chap, but the next clip shows him flying into a murderous rage when a crowd laughs at him.
* ImmediateSelfContradiction: In the first clip, Bill claims to the nuns escorting him to a convention that being a detective is a godly and wholesome pursuit… right before asking them to hold a jug of stakeout urine while he gets a bag of severed fingers autographed.
