** When Rick gives Izzy a short passionate declaration about how he's doing this to get Alex back, he gesticulates with the scepter he swiped from Jonathan, that Izzy is immediately enchanted by.

** The sheer nonchalance in Evy's tone when she says that, combined with the fact that she considers Rick shooting the locks as "subtle" is itself hilarious, showing she's got no problems with his direct approach, also seen in other parts. Really, the only time she reacts negatively to his brute force is when he uses a crowbar to bust down a wall that opens a secret passage, since she was afraid he'd end up smashing a perfectly good mural to chunks. Thankfully, it fell in one piece.

** When Rick pays him cash upfront for the job, Izzy tries to blow it off by rhetorically asking him what he needs money for and what he'd even spend it on...and then pockets it anyway. Meanwhile, while he's saying that, cut to Evie confusedly turning to look at the man sitting and reading the papers in the bathtub in the background behind her.

* Jonathan and one of the [[{{Mook}} mooks]] run into each other during the pursuit by the pygmy mummies. They take shelter in a circle of stones, with Jonathan reassuring the mook that they won't cross the sacred stones. [[spoiler: Cue a pygmy pole-vaulting over the stones to stab the mook, leaving him looking utterly aghast at Jonathan.]] Jonathan simply shouts "Sorry. My mistake." and runs.
** What's funnier is that this particular mook was a MauveShirt up until this point. Some particular camera focus was given to him early in the movie, and he'd managed to avoid getting killed expertly dodging the knife Rick throws back to them (and lands on another unfortunate mook's neck). Guess his luck ran out here.
