** FridgeBrilliance kicks in when you realize that [[ActorAllusion Tony Stark]] just failed pulling off a SherlockScan (and acknowledging that he didn't look long enough to get a good glimpse).



** Added [[FridgeLogic Fridge Funny]]? That wouldn't be a legal password in most organizations, much less the US military (no numbers, no lowercase, no special characters...who taught you infosec, Rhodey?)



*** Bit of fridge logic in that Marvel is a pretty hard-science universe, Killian is probably [[{{Squick}} burning parts of his own lungs]] to pull that trick, and with all the talk about 'regulation' and how deliberately-casual Killian seems after pulling it, it's an open question whether Savin's shocked that Killian did that, or that Killian did that ''without going nova.''

*** For some FridgeBrilliance: JARVIS might well have been making a joke on purpose! Tony's clearly made him perfectly capable of snarking right back at him, and JARVIS getting back to that after being battered and broken (his voice sounding clearly distressed/faulty) is another good sign he's getting right back to how he should be.



** FridgeBrilliance really; it looks villainous before you see the movie, and funny after.
