* Pictured. When Chai turns in his papers in the beginning of the game, his photo has him doing a devil horns pose. When the receptionist puts it down, [[DrosteImage Chai is one-for-one making the same face]].

* Unsurprisingly, the plan goes awry and Chai crashes into a blimp, bounces off and crashes into the employee cafeteria, which is luckily only a few floors below their target. Cue every single enemy robot pausing their meal to look at Chai and 808 making the exact same bigfoot-like pose from the wanted poster.

--->'''SBR-001:''' [[ShootHimHeHasAWallet Is that a weapon]]?\\
'''Chai:''' (''genuinely confused and making no threatening movements'') Uhh... I don't think so?\\
'''SBR-001:''' [[BlatantLies I think he's resisting]]. (''[[PoliceBrutality The bots immediately pull out stun batons]]'')\\

-->'''Chai:''' (in pain) I think I found a shortcut. \\

-->'''Chai:''' (definitely in pain) Wow... Lotta shortcuts around here...

--->'''QA-1MIL:''' I like defects.\\
'''Chai:''' ''[Chai and 808 nods]'' That's good!\\

-->'''VA-SER:''' Hey, I'm working here! \\

-->'''O5-KAR:''' Ah, you poor lad, must be delusional from the fall. I am not your enemy.

-->'''Chai:''' [[EmphasizeEverything YOU COULD HAVE BEEN HERE THIS WHOLE TIME?]] \\

-->'''Chai:''' ''(disgusted)'' Ugh, [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall you sound like a video game tutorial.]]

-->'''Chai:''' That's harsh, Peppermint. He was just vibin'. \\

--->'''Peppermint:''' I don't know. Fight?\\
'''Chai:''' You're paying me double for this. \\

--> '''Chai''': You said make it stop.

[[folder: Track 3: Trial by (Volcanic) Fire ]]

-->'''VA-SER:''' Hey, I'm resting here!

-->'''[=LU-C1LLE=]:''' Do I look like I work here? \\

--->'''Chai:''' I can see the entrance to the AI Labs right behind you. Can't you, you know, sneak me in? \\
'''[=LU-C1LLE=]:''' What's in it for me? \\
'''Chai:''' Knowing that you did this guy here a huge solid. \\
'''[=LU-C1LLE=]:''' For me, that's unquantifiable. Therefore: no. \\
'''Chai:''' Thanks for being no help. \\

--->'''Chai:''' So, you just sit around here the whole day? \\
'''[=LU-C1LLE=]:''' I greet and guide. I'm friendly. \\
'''Chai:''' That's debatable. \\
'''[=LU-C1LLE=]:''' No, it isn't. \\
'''Chai:''' Well, ''I'' didn't even get a greeting. \\

-->'''Peppermint:''' I'm sure your fans are all waiting for you in Lab 44.

-->if(You.attack(Me) = true) \\

-->'''Peppermint:''' ''(sounding legitimately concerned)'' Chai, did you just black out?\\

-->'''Peppermint''': I'm useless!\\
'''Chai''': You said it, not me.

--->'''Chai''' ''(going through each wall)'': [[PunctuatedForEmphasis SUCH! A! BAD! I! DEA!]]

--->'''CNMN:''' ''(panicking)'' Mister Chai, Sir Macaron has yet to join you, this is cheating.
--->''(Chai defeats the Z-Shield bot)''
--->'''Peppermint:''' Well, this messes everything up.
--->'''CNMN:''' Do not be afraid. I will activate the cutscene as usual.
--->''(Cutscene plays completely normally)''

[[folder: Track 4: Less Budget, More Problems ]]

-->'''Macaron:''' In secret! Code names and stuff. Just so there was no risk of getting caught. \\
'''Chai:''' But your code names are your... actual... names. Dude, she could have been a crazy internet stalker or something! \\
'''Macaron:''' Oh... I never thoguht about that. I gues I was just happy someone wanted to help. \\

-->'''Macaron:''' Oh, wait now, Peppermint, don't get mad...
-->'''Peppermint:''' 'Unsympathetic'? 'Hot-headed'? You don't even know me!
-->'''CNMN:''' ''(terrified)'' [[NotHelpingYourCase You are only proving me correct.]]
-->'''Peppermint:''' Come on, Chai, you can vouch for me, right?
-->'''Chai:''' I'm staying out of this.

-->'''Chai:''' ''(distraught)'' Nooooo!\\

''({{Beat}})''\\

'''Zanzo:''' ''([[ExpressiveHair head-cables flaring]])'' Was that not IMPLIED!?

-->'''Chai:''' Uh, can we have just one- Sorry, just take a second.
-->''(Chai enters a group huddle with everyone while Korsica and Kale just stare at them).''
-->'''Korsica:''' Are we actually giving them a moment, sir?

[[folder: Track 5: Breaking Out ]]

-->'''Peppermint:''' And you were the star of the show! Where do you come up with all these great ideas? \\
'''Chai:''' I wish I could tell you, but even I don't let myself in on THAT secret. \\

-->'''CNMN:''' Mister Chai, that was really quite an amazing performance! So much so, I realize I mistook you at first and misconstructed your psych profile. \\
'''Chai:''' So what's it now? \\
'''CNMN:''' Instead of [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex brashly acting out based off your fear of inferiority]], I see you know out of confidence. You are surely an inspiration for the team, and for children aged 5 and up. \\
'''Chai:''' (enthusiastically) Rated E for Everyone!

-->'''Chai:''' ''(yawns)'' [[WakingNonSequitur Am I under oath?]]

--->'''SCR-UB:''' ''(fleeing the scene)'' KARMA.

[[folder: Track 6: L.I.F.T. Me Up ]]

-->'''Korsica''': All right... ''Somehow'', the defect, who I ''thought'' we secured, got away. What the hell? Not only that, he helped fix our security system. I... should be angry, but let's just say my feelings right now are... mixed. Yeah. Mixed.\\
'''Chai''': A vague praise. I'll take it! \\
'''Korisca''': In other words: APB on the kid. See him? Call it in.

'''TEC-78:''' (turns around and looks at Chai)\\
'''Chai:''' Um (makes a heart-shaped sign with his hands)\\

--> '''Macaron''': Hey, I just realized. Yeah, with no breaks...how are we stoppin'?
--> ''Chai's face slowly morphs into horror''

--->'''ES-101:'''({{Beat}}) [[DullSurprise Huh...]]

[[folder: Track 7: The Climb ]]

-->'''Chai:''' ''(cheerfully)'' I love how I can be midway through a prison escape, then back here. [[SarcasmMode All momentum, gone!]]

-->'''Macaron:''' Ahh, the Chai I know wouldn't let that stop him! \\

-->'''Korsica:''' Alright, I'm putting a stop to this. ''(Some laser emiters on the tower dramatically activate)''\\

-->'''Chai:''' ''(muffled)'' It isn't what it looks like!

'''Macaron:''' (''As Korsica ponders Chai's words'') De-escalating... [[TemptingFate I think we may have a chance...]]\\

'''Korsica:''' (''rising to her feet as her stamina [[HereWeGoAgain almost completely fills back up]]'') That's it! [[TurnsRed Now I'm mad!]]\\

'''Chai:''' (''confused'') Wait, [[IdiotHero what does "Oblivious" mean?]]

-->'''Chai:''' ''[[OhCrap (Sucks air through teeth]]'' ''[[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand as the triumphant music that was playing deflates.)]]''\\
'''Macaron:''' ''(Disappointed)'' Chai...\\
'''Chai:''' ''(Embarrassed)'' Sorry.

[[folder: Track 8: A History Lesson ]]

-->'''VA-SER:''' Hey, I'm watching here!

-->'''Macaron''': Chai, watch your step! The generator is still running. \\
'''Chai''': That's '[[{{Pun}} shocking]]'.\\
'''Korsica''': [[LittleNo No]].\\
'''Peppermint''': [[LamePunReaction STOOOOOOP...]]

[[folder: Track 9: Take the Stage ]]

[[folder: Track 10: The Masterplan ]]

-->'''Chai:''' ''(Drops into frame)'' Whoo! What a wild battle! Hah, wish you coulda seen it!
-->'''Macaron:''' I can't believe you survived that!
-->'''Korsica:''' That was the most...amazing thing I've ever seen!
-->'''Chai:''' Yeah, ''[[AsideGlance (he leans over to the camera and looks right at the player)]]'' and let's never mention this again.

-->'''Chai''': This is the greatest plan ever!\\
'''Everyone but 808''': This is the '''dumbest''' plan ever.

-->'''Roquefort:''' Roquefort here. Shut this place down! Protect Finance at all costs! ''(amused)'' [[AccidentalPun Heh, I said "costs!"]]\\

---> '''Roquefort:''' Grr, you're making me angry. I was on my deathbed when Kale saved me. I was smart, but weak. He fixed that.
--->'''Chai:''' Really? Why'd you wanna be ''less'' smart?

-->'''CNMN:''' (with sparkly eyes) We were spectating through the door. Lady Korsica suggested to let you handle it. \\
'''Korsica:''' (embarrassed) Uh, CNMN, we don't always have to repeat EVERYTHING we hear.

[[folder: Track 11: The Needle Drop ]]

-->'''CNMN:''' I do not have random data. I need something to quantify. \\
'''Chai:''' Well, quantify... me! \\
'''CNMN:''' I actually tried, but every time I put you into a calculation, I got an error. I think you are the human equivalent of dividing by zero. \\

-->'''Korsica:''' I gotta say, as much as I didn't see Roquefort turning into a giant wolf, I didn't expect us to come this far. \\
'''Chai:''' ''You assumed I would fail?'' \\

--> '''CMNM''': Mr. Chai, I thought you said you didn't need a guitar?
--> '''Chai''': Well, yeah, but...[[RuleOfCool this is cooler]].

'''Chai:''' That was VERY dope, CNMN. ''(Turns around and starts walking away) Man, he is messed uuuuuup!''

'''Chai:''' ''[Looking directly at the player]'' Well, if ''SOMEONE'' wants to just walk away from the heat of things, this is what they get.

--> " [...], we've begun accepting preorders for the humorously themed 'I survived the Project Armstrong Defect Fiasco' hoodies. They will be available in white nimbus colorway with the text in a font called Tangolian Rail. They will be individually numbered for any surviving employees."

* Upon first exiting the Armstrong production facility after being flagged as a defect Chai is accosted by some security bots, causing him to instinctively pop out his new magnetic grabber, which leads to this bit of BlackComedy

* Once there, Peppermint warns him of an ambush, but he waltzes in, expecting the workers to mistake him for a technician like the last one. It actually works until an ES-101 walks in and informs everyone that Chai's the defect...which the workers don't actually believe, because of Chai's earlier maintenance work.

'''Kale:''' ''[completely fed-up]'' Yes, that's the ''point'', I'm CONTROLLING-- ''[gets pounced on by 808]''

'''Zanzo:''' ''(genuinely confused)'' That's... What I just called you.\\

** One of the enemies of the level is a samurai bot wearing a chef outfit, absolutely furious that Chai interrupted lunchtime.

* Upon entering the Vandelay origin exhibits, both doors are locked until Mimosa finishes explaining the exhibit. This is probably done as a way to make sure the doesn't miss out on the important dialogue, but it makes perfect sense in universe too. The proud and egotistical Kale and Mimosa wouldn't hesitate to trap any visitors in the room until their 'inspiring' story was told.
