| 10 | !!''Now You See Him, Now You Don't'' provides examples of: |
| 11 | * AccidentalMisnaming: Just like in the first film, A.J. Arno once again mispronounces Dexter's name, calling him Hector this time. |
| 12 | * AgonyOfTheFeet: When a guard at A.J. Arno's office discovers Schuyler's visible shoes and tries to pick them up, he then steps on Schuyler's feet, which prompts Schuyler to kick the guard in the leg. |
| 13 | * BandageMummy: Happens to Druffle after an accident with the bumblebees he was using for his experiment. To add insult to injury, Druffle is actually allergic to bee stings. |
| 14 | * CassandraTruth: When Dexter and Schuyler try warning the bank president and the police about A.J. Arno being invisible to rob the bank, both the bank president and the police do not believe them, until the theft has been committed, at which point they have a little NeverMyFault dialogue. |
| 15 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Pete, Annie, and several tertiary students from the first film are completely absent in this film. Professor Quigley is also gone, although he shows up again in the third movie. |
| 16 | * EpicFail: Higgins' golf playing at the professional tournament is anything but smooth sailing. |
| 17 | * {{Fainting}}: Dean Higgins does this near the end, after discovering that he got turned invisible when he looks in the mirror. |
| 18 | * {{Fingore}}: Subverted, as while Dexter's hand looks like it's missing half its fingers, they're actually just invisible. |
| 19 | * {{Invisibility}}: Take a look at the title of the movie. Enough said. |
| 20 | * TheNotLoveInterest: Debbie, the main female member of the group doesn't seem to have any chemistry with Dexter (at least not compared to Annie). |
| 21 | * PopTheTires: Happens to Schuyler's car when a gunshot from A.J. Arno blasts one of the tires. |
| 22 | * ScaryStingingSwarm: Apparently, Druffle was on the receiving end of this trope. |
| 23 | * ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Higgins screams this way after discovering that he was turned invisible. |
| 24 | * ThisIsWhatTheBuildingWillLookLike: Dexter and Schuyler discover the model of Medfield College, which Arno plans to turn into a gambling town. |
