** When you finish a battle with him in your party, he sometimes yells out, "NEXT TARGET!" in a deep abrupt tone that barely sounds like him and makes him sound like a Power Ranger who just defeated a monster, which is so jarring that it's hilarious if you aren't expecting it.

** Taking them to the movie theater has them wondering the point of movies, where they conclude that it's a means of escapism. They assume it means Joker is trying to escape, and the twins argue the most effective means of escape: Justine goes with the cliché of digging an escape hole with a spoon, while Caroline believes using a [[NoKillLikeOverkill bazooka]] is the best way to get out. The comment of movies being an escapism tool become HilariousInHindsight, if one played ''VideoGame/PersonaQ2NewCinemaLabyrinth''.

** Immediately afterwards, she notices the tool workbench and asks to try her hand at making some infiltration tools. Lavenza decides to craft a 'secret weapon' as a gift to Joker for reuniting her twin selves, which hits a snag as her dexterity apparently took a hit in the interim. [[NotSoStoic She eventually gets frustrated enough]] that she ''[[OhCrap tries to]] [[DisproportionateRetribution cast Megidolaon]]'' on the bench (which actually would've worked this time if she'd gone through with it!). The delivery of the scene in the localization really jacks it up as Lavenza's dignified tone gives way to anger.

** Lavenza then inquires on Joker's sleeping arrangements, and while sitting on his bed, she ends up ''falling asleep'' right there and then, promptly proceeding to dream out loud about what is blatantly revenge against Yaldabaoth for splitting her soul in two.

* A bit of Fridge Funny: Remember that for most of the game, Joker is in the interrogation room, telling Sae about the events that led up to his arrest. This means that if you romance Makoto during your playthrough, part of your time in the interrogation room is spent explaining to Sae how you put the moves on her little sister.
