* SizeableSemiticNose: DiscussedTrope, as 117 assumes that the ex-Nazi will recognize Mossad agents because of their big noses. The Mossad agents that are talking to him boggle at his stupidity, with one of them asking "You're France's best agent?"

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Lampshaded. 117 is relaxing at a party with a bunch of comely Chinese ladies when a squad of Chinese assassins burst into the room to kill him. 117 promptly engages in a gunfight that winds up with him and his girlfriend unscathed, but with all of the assassins '''and''' all of the other girls dead. As he stands among a pile of corpses 117 says, "That almost got bad."

* NotMyDriver: The driver who picks 117 up at the Rio airport turns out to be a Chinese assassin seeking revenge for his brother, killed by 117 in Gstaad. Bill Trumendous shows up and shoots the cabbie, saving 117's life.


Added DiffLines:

* PoolScene: The first thing 117 does after checking in to his hotel in Rio is to visit the pool, where a whole crowd of bikini-clad lovelies checks him out. Besides the fanservice, this also sets up his fear of heights when he can't deal with being up on the diving board.
