When Snaptrap serves himself some salad, a lettuce leaf falls onto the floor.

** In "Mission: Really Big Mission", the Chameleon's happiness over assisting D.O.O.M leads to him [[ThatRemindsMeOfASong wanting to sing]]. He gets one line in before Snaptrap tells him that D.O.O.M has a strict rule against singing. But literally seconds after that, Snaptrap's entusiasm over his plan leads to ''him'' wanting to sing, and the very same scenario happens. He gets one line in before the Chameleon reminds him of the rule.

* AdvanceNoticeCrime: In "[[Recap/TuffPuppyS1E16DoomAndGloomLawAndOdor Doom and Gloom]]", Verminious Snaptrap always announces his evil plans to T.U.F.F. so they can stop him. When [[HypercompetentSidekick Larry]] tells Snaptrap that it's not a good idea to tell T.U.F.F. his plans, Snaptrap tells them that [[StupidEvil the only reason he does so is because he feels it would be rude not to]] (this is despite the fact that as a villain, he has no obligation to be polite). After being released from prison, Snaptrap is ready to tell T.U.F.F. his next plan. Larry points out that the reason they keep getting arrested is because he keeps telling T.U.F.F. his plans, and when Snaptrap doesn't listen to him, Larry quits working for him, taking over the Diabolical Order of Mayhem (or D.O.O.M. for short), renaming it Genius Larry's Order of Mayhem (G.L.O.O.M. for short), committing crimes without telling T.U.F.F. his plans, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and changing his name to Murray]]. Although this doesn't stop Larry from telling his plans to Snaptrap by the phone just to brag, which leads to Snaptrap telling T.U.F.F. the details.

* GotMeDoingIt: Two ''separate'' examples in "Doom-Mates": Dudley repeatedly mispronounces "Chameleon" as "CHAM-eh-LEE-on" and says "Or should I say, [[Suddenly shouting THE CHAMELEON!]]" to anyone he suspects of being the Chameleon, both of which rub off on Kitty and the Chameleon himself. In fact, the Chameleon copies ''both'' at once.

* LastOnesPloy: In "Booby Trap", Professor Birdbrain discovers that his species, the blue-bottomed booby, is an endangered species and this gives him legal protection. He uses his newly discovered status to go on a crime spree, with an eco-police officer even arresting Dudley and Kitty when they assault Birdbrain the moment he shreds their stuff. [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Birdbrain ends up foiling himself when he clones a monster booby bird, thus making him no longer endangered and revoking his status]][[note]]Even though it would still logically make him a protected species, this is PlayedForLaughs[[/note]].

** Honestly, its one of the most used jokes in the show. The only real difference between the thought processes of T.U.F.F and D.O.O.M is that one thinks for good and the other thinks for evil.
