* In 3.04 "Don't Tell Annalise," Annalise arrives home absolutely ''plastered,'' stumbling and slurring her speech badly. After reassuring Nate she did not drive herself home, he tries to help her up the stairs to bed and she protests, saying she can do this much. She then trips and says "No, I can't." It's PlayedForLaughs in the moment, fairly effectively, though it might [[HarsherInHindsight become less funny when re-watched]] after it becomes clear later in the season that Annalise actually has serious substance abuse issues.

* Season 2, Episode 5:
** Considering the show’s EverybodyHasLotsOfSex standards, we get this conversation:
-->'''Annalise''': I caught Wes and Nate together last night.
-->'''Frank''': Screwing?
** Laurel mockingly suggest the K5 have an orgy before they all get arrested. Connor rolls with it, asking Michaela and Wes for their input despite their annoyance. Wes does later follow up by jokingly offering to get orgy drugs.
** Michaela again gets caught dirty talking with Levi, it’s played for drama as it’s right when Annalise learns that Levi is talking to both Wes and Michaela, but the idea is hilarious.
** Foreshadowing for later events: Oliver says he hacks the police station every other week for Annalise, and asks if he’s ever going to get paid.
** The rest of the K5 catches Wes with Levi, Michaela’s first reaction: “Are you gay for each other?”
* Season 2, Episode 6:
** After Connor confessed to doing something that could land him in jail, Oliver tries to figure out what. His first guess, terrorism, much to Connor’s disbelief. Could also be a reference to the producers’ other show ''Series/{{Quantico}}'', affectionately given the FanNickname “How to Get Away with Terrorism”.
** After seeing Wes still obsessing about Levi and Frank’s suitcase, we get this shout-out:
-->'''Michaela''': Figure out a way to ''Film/SilenceOfTheLambs'' or I will serial-kill you!
** With Levi arrested, Connor is egging Michaela to get together with Caleb. Laurel then realizes Catherine was secretly recording their conversation. Later, Michaela tries to apologize to Caleb about what she said in the recording.
-->'''Caleb''': The part about me being guilty or the part about my butt?

* Season 2, Episode 7:
** Oliver finally meets Annalise, and says she’s a lot nicer than what Connor says.
** Eve is back to defend Nate, she can’t help laughing when he asks what’s her deal with Annalise.
** Asher loudly fake-coughing in court to draw attention to the material witness Laurel tricked into arriving.

** The montage where the Keating 5 trying to convince various people who had been at their client's sex club to testify to her innocence. Most of them had good reasons not to do it, but there were multiple bits that were just hilarious. Like Asher's awkward innuendos about the construction worker's dick, which ends with said construction worker biting into a hot dog.
