** When he finds the man's corpse, Deadpool admits that maybe he should've called 911, before lying down with his head on the man's stomach and eating the ice cream the man was carrying.
* BreakingTheFourthWall:
** When Creator/StanLee cameos to say "Wow, nice suit!" during Deadpool's charge, Deadpool stops and shouts "Zip it, Stan Lee!" before continuing to run towards the scene of the crime he was trying to stop.
** Wade tries to call a member of the real life wardrobe department who helps his actor Ryan Reynolds get into the Deadpool costume.
** When Deadpool starts talking about Wolverine, he once again breaks into an Australian accent, in reference to Wolverine's actor Creator/HughJackman.
* TheCameo: Creator/StanLee shows up.
* ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: The short is basically one big parody of this concept, showing how it would not apply and cause significant problems for superheroes in the real world.

* DeadUnicornTrope: Given the [[Music/JohnWilliams music playing]], Deadpool''s mocking the oft-parodied "ComicBook/{{Superman}} in the Phone Booth" scene that only gets brought up nowadays to be mocked.
* FailureHero: Deadpool takes so long to change into his costume that by the time he's done the man he's trying to save has already been shot and killed.

* OverlyLongGag: Deadpool takes several minutes, in real time, to change into his costume in the phone booth.
* {{Parody}}: The short is one for ''Franchise/SpiderMan'''s origin story. Both involve an old man being murdered. While Peter had no clue that his actions could have far-reaching consequences, Wade is a few yards away from the scene and still taking his own sweet time. While that story was the TropeNamer for (With Great Power) ComesGreatResponsibility, this teaser is officially named "{{No Good Deed|GoesUnpunished}}" (Goes Unpunished).
* RealityEnsues: Wade tries to change into his costume in a phone booth to stop a mugging. Unlike Superman, he doesn't have super-''speed'', and by the time he finishes, the man's been shot dead.
* RuleOfFunny:
** The central joke is how long it would take a relatively normal person to change in a phone booth, realistically. But Wade still manages to fit two large swords in a small backpack.
