* AgonyOfTheFeet: Dudley accidentally steps on Inspector Fenwick's foot while tapping his own in "The Masked Ginny Lynne".

** Just one of the {{hallucinations}} Dudley has after Snidely, in an attempt to kill him, flicks a boulder known as Flicker Rock onto his head.

* WorkOffTheDebt: In "Top Secret", Dudley shadows Whiplash at a restaurant, but can't keep following him after the latter leaves because Dudley didn't pay his check. Seeing as Dudley had no money, the manager put him to work as a dishwasher. Inspector Fenwick finds Dudley and sends him back on the mission, but soon the inspector has to finish Dudley's work.

* HardHead: Subverted in "Flicker Rock," where Dudley initially seems unharmed by having a boulder dropped on his head but then begins having visual and audio hallucinations. Nell bringing him back to the scene of the crime fixes it, EasyAmnesia style.

* ByTheBookCop: Exaggerated in "Saw Mill". Even though Nell's the damsel in distress, Dudley arrested her for mail fraud, because she put a Blue Chip stamp on the envelope she sent to Dudley begging him to rescue her.

** Just one of the {{hallucinations}} Dudley has after Snidely knocks Flicker Rock onto his head.

* BaitAndSwitch: When Dudley is searching for Stokey the Bear among a group of firemen, he comes upon the disguised bear and says, "This man- he didn't shave," and continues searching the line.

* CutLexLuthorACheck: Defied in "Log Jam"; when Whiplash uses a jam factory as a cover for his latest crime, he's dismayed to hear that his jam is doing well in super markets, saying he doesn't want to be in the jelly business for real, as it's too legitimate.

* SimpleSolutionWontWork: In "Log Jam", when Snidley, using a phony business called Mother Whiplash's Log Jam, causes a log jam that prevents all the timber in Canada from going down the river, Dudley asks Inspector Fenwick why they not simply arrest him. The Inspector replies that his alias of Mother Whiplash would provoke every mother in Canada.

* EekAMouse: Nell does this in "Flicker Rock" when she visits Dudley, who's been locked up as a lunatic.

* CanadaEh: We know, you're shocked. Though, amusingly enough to the trope name, the trailing "eh?" is one of the few stereotypes NOT on full display.

* DoWrongRight: This line from Inspector Fenwick in "Top Secret" after he had to finish Dudley's dishwashing job to pay a restaurant check:
-->'''Inspector Fenwick'': Dudley, next time you can't pay your check, find a restaurant that has softer detergent!

* CirclingBirdies: Just one of the hallucinations Dudley has after Snidely knocks Flicker Rock onto his head.

** "Niagara Falls" has Snidely tie Dudley to train tracks, only to become overcome with guilt and pulls the switch to prevent the train from hitting Dudley.

-->'''Snidely:''' That's not fair! They've got giant rocks--all we've got are these machine-guns!

** "Snidely Arrested" once again addresses Snidely's addiction to the crime. He actually wants to kick the habit, and he actually seems happy when Inspector Fenwick and Dudley's trap locks him in a cage. However, Nell had been studying the law books and actually wants Snidely released. A trial is held later, and Dudley and the inspector try to prove Whiplash guilty with the help of witnesses, but Nell reveals how his obsession with tying people to railroad tracks stemmed from a knot-tying hobby in his childhood, and Dudley, moved by her speech, lets Snidely go free.

* BrownNote: In "The Masked Jennie Lynn," Nell's singing voice puts anyone who hears it to sleep. Snidely uses this effect to loot her audiences. Dudley turns out to be immune.

** One notable example is at the end of "The Masked Ginny Lynde", when after, Nell's singing puts her father to sleep, Snidely and his accomplice steal the uniforms of both the inspector and Dudley and sneak away.

** "Niagara Falls" has Snidely tie Dudley to train tracks, but becomes overcome with guilt and pulls the track switch to prevent the train from hitting Dudley.
