* As the section image shows, the first hint that Columbia isn't the pure, idyllic {{Utopia}} it's made out to be is the raffle. The numbers are written on baseballs, and ([[ContrivedCoincidence naturally]]) your number gets drawn. So what's your prize? Getting to throw the first "pitch" at an interracial couple who's been trotted on stage with the intention of publicly stoning them to death. After emcee Jeremiah Fink taunts you over your hesitance to, you know, ''instigate the brutal public execution of an interracial couple for the [[BlatantLies hellworthy tresspass]] of being an interracial couple'', you're given a choice: [[KickTheDog cast the proverbial/literal first stone]], or [[KickTheSonOfABitch knock that stupid mustache off Fink's face with the ball]].

The part immediately below happens, so you don't actually get to throw anything. What makes it awesome on a meta scale is that ''no one'' who worked on the game and got to this scene chose to target the interracial couple. And the number of LetsPlayers who have are similarly nonexistent.

* The plasmids are back and they're now known as vigors. These vigors vary between a possession power that allows you to possess enemies, a horse themed stun vigor named Bucking Bronco and Devil's Kiss which is an explosive fire vigor.

* In Episode 2, you'll see Daisy Fitzroy arguing with the Luteces over the prospect of possibly hurting Fink's child in order to goad Elizabeth into killing her, therefore making her a woman. She may be brutal, but Daisy [[EvenEvilHasStandards will never hurt children.]]

** Regarding ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', the original title was going to be Revenge before Lucas twigged to the notion that revenge wasn't really the Jedi way. Given how ''Film/TheAvengers2012'' was named ''Avengers Assemble'' regionally, France going with the original planned title on release is a perfectly plausible alternate, slyly reinforcing the idea she was opening dimensional gates.

*** And Ray the announcer couldn't care less. The Vox know taking on Songbird is useless, so they don't even try. Ray just keeps shouting for Comstock's death. Crying out for revenge and retribution and zeppelin after zeppelin is sent forward to release a new wave of Patriots on the hapless ship. They are willing to lose as many men as necessary to destroy Comstock's flagship and they never, NEVER stop coming, Songbird or not.
