* In the first episode the crooks have to sneak into a dinner party on board a ship. One of the partygoers assumes them to be waitstaff catering the party, sees the trays of food they are carrying and asks what they are serving. One of the felons says, “Hey, Lady, I ain’t servin’ nothin’! I’m on parole!”

* In "The Case Of the Lowest Crime", Big Boss offers an alliance with the police to [[EvenEvilHasStandards take down Addictem]], since the cops are so swamped dealing with all the Crystal Twist addicts they don't have the manpower to go after the source of the drug. Bulletproof agrees, under the condition that they team up in Crook/Cop pairs so the Cops can keep an eye on them.
--> '''Big Boss''': Ugh, humiliating! ...but acceptable...
** Mace and Buttons are teamed up, and catches up to Addictem just as he's trying to flee into the sewer system. Mace uses a kind of laser bazooka to block off the entrance before Addictem escapes.
--> '''Buttons''': Not bad! Now I know what to ask Santa for!
** Longarm and Rock Krusher finally corners Addictem in the Empire City hospital, only for him to grab a female doctor as a hostage. Unfortunately for him, he just happens to be right outside the room of Berserko, who accidentally O.D'd earlier in the episode after falling into Addictem's shipment of Crystal Twist.
--> '''Berserko''': Well well well, just who I've been wanting to see! It's your fault I'm in here! Why don't ya step into my room so I can thank ya properly?
--> '''Addictem''': HELP!! COP!! I SURRENDER, COME ARREST ME!!
--> '''Longarm''': Ah, now you're getting wise, punk!

-->'''Nightshade:''' ''(tries on a ring)'' Wouldn't it be nice if Mace gave me a ring like this? But who am I kidding? I'm a Crook, he's a Cop, and... ''(turns to see Shredder the dog barking and charging at her)'' THAT'S A DOG!!!
** Mace's idea to incapacitate Shredder: he puts on Nightshade's knockout lipstick and kisses the ferocious dog, but to Nightshade and Highway's shock. It works.

* Some of the PSA scenes can be funny, even Big Boss gets in on it. His segment takes place in a mall where he explains the dangers of pulling out a wad of cash in a public place (demonstrated by Squeeky, who then promptly gets mugged right then and there). Another segment features Mace explaining how graffiti is a costly crime and not as harmless as it looks. Then some kid unknowingly graffities over him, then gets an OhCrap face after realizing what he just did. followed by Mace calling out that graffiti is also against the law.

Brian, Longarm's son, also does some segments on street safety, which sometimes stars Berserko demonstrating what happens when you don't follow the tips discussed.

* "The Case of the Crooked Contest"
** Big Boss enters Nightshade into the Miss World Beauty Contest in order to snag the first prize collection of wealth. Enter Ms. Demeanor who kicks down the door demanding why Nightshade was selected and not her. Big Boss nervously replies that this particular job required someone delicate and feminine. Ms. Demeanor angrily argues she's exactly that, and tries to prove it [[NotHelpingYourCase by wrecking the room]].
** On the Cops side, Bulletproof assigns Mainframe for special guard duty at the same contest. Mainframe expresses her distaste for such contests as it's nothing more than an excuse for men to ogle beautiful women in swimsuits. When Bulletproof reaffirms that he meant for her to go undercover as a contestant, she immediately does a 180 and gets giddy about entering followed by worrying about what to wear.

Added DiffLines:

* In "The Case of Berserko's Big Surprise", Berserko comes up with a very dumb idea to steal the city's bridge as a present. When Big Boss finds out, he yells out "Berserko, you nincompoop!" so loud that Berserko hears it halfway across the city.
** Not to mention earlier in the episode, he buys $400 worth of masks... and then robs the store he just bought them "in disguise."
* Honestly most moments in the series involving Berserko tend to be stupid, hilarious, or a combination of the two.
* In "The Case of the Giveaway Gold", Highway tries his hand at baking cookies. When he offers his first batch to the other cops to try, they are so hard that no one can bite into them. Not even Blitz, who is a robotic dog.
** When Highway arrives with another batch, a few of them fall off the plate, bounce off Bulletproof's desk and smash a window.
* In "The Case of the Disappearing Dough", Highway walks in on Bulletproof, who's a bit of a health nut, eating a chili dog. His excuse? He was sick of eating food that "tastes good."
* In "The Case of the Blur Bandits", Whitney Morgan seizes an opportunity to interview Highway, only to immediately regret it after hearing Highway's platitudes.
* Small Guy and his gang making shocked expressions and then crying when Bulletproof's ending narration mentions that they're going to the State pen in "The Case of the Baby Bad Guy".
* "The Case of the Highway Robbery"
** Berserko's retort to Turbo Tu-Tone calling him a pea-brain.
--->'''Berserko:''' Make up your mind! You already said I was a nincompoop!
** Highway places Berserko and Turbo Tu-Tone under arrest for "car theft and [[DrivesLikeCrazy driving like idiots]]".
* "The Case of the Crime Convention"
** This exchange when Big Boss explains to Berserko that the best way to win Criminal of the Year is by making the C.O.P.S. look like idiots.
--->'''Berserko:''' How do I make someone look like an idiot?\\
'''Big Boss:''' [[StealthInsult Look in the mirror. You'll get it soon enough]].\\
'''Berserko:''' Oh, thanks, Uncle Big Boss!\\
'''Big Boss:''' ''[{{facepalm}}s in frustration]''
** When Mainframe and Hardtop bounce away with their feet still stuck in cement, a guard asks where they're going before getting knocked over by the two. He feebly gets up and remarks "Sorry I asked".
** Berserko and Buttons [=McBoomBoom=]'s anger at Big Boss announcing himself as winner of the Golden Blackjack award.
* "The Case of the Big Bad Boxoids"
** When Dr. Badvibes states that it will take an hour for him to complete the work needing to be done on the Boxoids, Big Boss demands that he finish the task in 10 seconds. Dr. Badvibes is then intimidated into doing just that.
** Mainframe has computer problems and scoffs at Sundown's suggestion to talk to the computer. When Sundown's approach works, she is understandably dumbfounded.
* "The Case of the Brilliant Berserko" has a good exchange when Berserko and Turbo Tu-Tone take the Chess Crown.
-->'''Berserko:''' Now Uncle Big Boss will never beat me at chess!\\
'''Turbo Tu-Tone:''' But Big Boss doesn't play chess.\\
'''Berserko:''' Neither do I. ''[cackles]''
