  • Jackie Chan makes an awesome drunken master. But we already knew that, of course.
  • The Silent Monk stops Lu Yan from taking a sip of wine. "You consider it a sin?" "It's sinful to not share!" Lu Yan reluctantly gives the Silent Monk his flask... who promptly empties it because he just realized that he has The Chosen Zero to deal with. Lu Yan then grimaces at the empty flask.
  • Somewhere between a standard and meta trope, when Jason mentions Bruce Lee and his martial art "The Way of the Intercepting Fist" (jeet kune do), Lu Yan and the Silent Monk stare at each other and back at Jason, apparently utterly confused.
  • Lu Yan tries to pray for rain in the middle of a desert. It seems to work... but then Yan looks up and realizes it's not exactly the kind of "rain" he was looking for. The Silent Monk randomly decided to pee on Lu Yan. Turns out it was foreshadowing; it's just the dick move one would expect from the Monkey King.
  • Lu Yan meeting Jason.
    Lu Yan: (in Chinese) Where did you get that staff?
    Jason: I don't know what you're saying...
    Lu Yan: (still in Chinese) Where did you find it?
    Jason: I. Can't. Understand. You.
    Lu Yan: (in English) That's because you're not listening!
