* ArmorPiercingQuestion: [[spoiler:Mansley's sheer fear and paranoia of the Giant, not helped by his berserk moment at the U.S. Army [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom Mansley caused to be there]], has him proceed to call a ''nuclear missile'' upon the Giant's position. Who is right there in the town, before their very eyes in explicit danger close range. Rogard, in sheer and complete disbelief at how TooDumbToLive Mansley is, proceeds to rip him into him with a question that makes Mansley realize [[OhCrap what he just did]].]]

* OneDimensionalThinking: When Hogarth tries to evade the Giant trampling on him during their first encounter, he doesn't think of stepping aside but keeps running straight forward. Justified in that Hogarth is fleeing in a panic and the Giant, being intelligent, could have simply adjusted his direction.

* CrazyPrepared: Hogarth lampshades this to his mother after the latter tells him she had to work late and there is cold chicken and carrots for him, by opening the bread bin stashing his favourite junk food. This could imply this isn’t the first time Hogarth is left to look after himself as it is likely his mother had to do lots of overtime to make ends meet.
