* When Ezio firsts interacts with the architect in the Villa Auditore who complains about not being a wizard and that he can't work without money we get this:
--> '''Ezio''': What if someone brought you money?

--> '''Ezio''': *yells* Uncle, I like this architetto!
--> '''Mario''': *from off-screne* He can be quite sharp when he smells money!

* The minstrels. When they're running in front of you while trying to escape guards they're annoying, but if you stop to listen to them for a while, a combination of terrible singing voices, bad lyrics and rediculous accents makes them hilarious in a So Bad Its Good way.

* If Ezio hangs around long enough for the guards to discover the latest dead body, they'll start to question him about it. Simply [[ImplausibleDeniability standing there innocently]] and saying nothing (while incognito, anyways) will eventually prompt them to walk away, questioning your intelligence as they go...

** Eventually you're tasked with rescuing her kidnapped children. Bianca seems to have inherited her mother's fiery personality spending her captivity yelling at her captors about how they don't have enough men to hold her and other things. Ottaviano, meanwhile, just whines about how he has to go to the bathroom much to Ludovico Orsi's annoyance. It's enough to almost make you feel bad for Ludovico. Almost.

Leonardo then grabs a large butcher's knife and bringing it down very close to said finger, before revealing that Altaïr had found a way to avoid the finger removal and that he'd just been amusing himself.

* After Ezio kills a guard who was beating Leonardo, he asks what he should do with the body. Leonardo's response is to take it inside and "put it with ''the others''". Granted, there turns out to be a reasonable explanation, but the line can still get you if you're not expecting it.

The best part is that when she really hits her stride, the Animus just gives up and stops translating. Not that it matters if you understand Italian or not; her tone gets the point across beautifully.

* After pestering Shaun Hasting for conversation, he eventually runs out of dialogue, and just starts greeting the player with "Hello, Desmond. Go away."
* Somebody was having fun writing Caterina Sforza's speech taunting her children's kidnappers, which gets more obscene, more gruesome and more hilarious as she builds up steam.
** It should be noted that most of that speech was real - as in, something she actually said during a siege, obscenities and all.
*** Watch it in all its hammy glory [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R4PoofP4bw here]] (the good stuff starts at 7:35).
** On a related note, Shaun refers to Caterina as a "lunatic warrior mother".
** One of the best moments is when she yells "Go ahead, take my children! I have the instrument to make more!" and then ''flashes the Orsi brothers''. And the best part is that [[TruthInTelevision she actually did this!]]
* Earlier, Machiavelli informs Ezio that Caterina's husband was working for the Templars, to which Ezio says "I'm sorry to hear that." The funny part is Caterina airily replying that he shouldn't be because she had him killed. There's audible terror in Ezio's voice as he replies.
* Bartolomeo, BoisterousBruiser and LargeHam, whose speech in prison is nearly as funny as Caterina's. Other moments of his include being unsure whether to kiss Ezio for freeing him or slap him for taking so long about it (neither option enthuses Ezio), rampaging through the streets of Venice beating guards to death with a broom and bellowing about his need to smash heads, and introducing Ezio to his [[{{BFS}} gigantic sword]], [[ICallItVera Bianca]], by pointing it directly at Ezio's nose.
-->'''Bartolomeo:''' Ezio, meet Bianca. Bianca, Ezio!
-->'''Ezio:''' ''(carrrrefully moving the point with his finger)'' ...Charmed.
** The "meeting" with Bianca is later [[ShoutOut recalled]] in ''Brotherhood'', when Bartolomeo calls for his wife and Ezio asks, "Did you check behind the table?" To Ezio's surprise, this time around the wife is an actual live human woman.
* Each and every time Ezio uses a springboard in Oltrarno District.
* The occasional news from the heralds include a bunch of youngsters [[{{Mooning}} baring their posteriors]].
** They also mention how people have started climbing buildings for sport (including Ezio), and say that though it isn't illegal, it's all fun and games until somebody breaks a leg...
