** The second person that comes to him wants the reward money for information on a certain wanted criminal. Turns out the criminal is himself so he asks if he still gets the money since he is turning himself in. You can either tell him he will get a reduced sentence or just a flat no, before you have him taken away. Additionally, it seems no one noticed him enter the precinct despite his wanted poster being all around the lobby.

** While tracking the cat in the basement Robocop gives Ulysses advice on how to act in a situation like this. What makes it funny is how Robocop consistently words himself like they are after a fugitive from the law, saying things like "The fugitive has left a trail." when finding paw prints and advicing Ulysses to move slow and conserve his energy if the "fugitive" makes a break for it and he has to run after it.

** What does stop Maurice from jumping is telling him that in prison, he’ll get to do all the laundry he wants[[note]]You learn early on in the investigation that he ''really'' likes doing laundry[[/note]]. [[BrickJoke Later on]] in the prison riot, you can find him again in, you guessed it, the laundry room, [[SkewedPriorities completely oblivious to the riot going on and more concerned with making sure Robocop doesn’t mess with the settings on the machine]].

* One of the overheard conversations can be a homeless man lecturing another about the great economic opportunities of Delta City and the best way to invest one's money to take advantage of them. The other homeless man points out that, well, they're homeless so why do they care?

Another hobo then points out that the lecturer (who prefaced his advice by calling himself a financial expert) is homeless himself, so obviously his expertise isn't worth all that much.

* The leadup to the penultimate mission has Robo move through a container town built for Delta City's construction workers, which features amenities like a tattoo parlor, bars and prostitutes. While the conditions there are utterly horrifying, the sight of a prostitute in her usual outfit wearing a bright-yellow hardhat is just darkly hilarious.

** Before the confrontation above, Robocop calls the dealer in order to set up a meeting to bust him. The dealer figures out it’s him over the phone and proceeds to rant about the guys who have been vandalizing phone booths since it’s making him lose customers, until the other dealers come for his head, upon which he quickly leaves his address for Robocop to find them.

** Before the confrontation above, Robocop calls the dealer in order to set up a meeting to bust him. The funny part is that he tries to play the part of a new customer looking for Nuke, but since his robotic way of speech can’t change the dealer figures out it’s him over the phone and proceeds to rant about the guys who have been vandalizing phone booths since it’s making him lose customers, until the other dealers come for his head, upon which he quickly leaves his address for Robocop to find them.

* Once the meeting with the Old Man in his old apartment in Old Detroit is finished, Robocop has the opinion of either going out the way he came in or falling off an opening through the balcony since Robo doesn’t take fall damage. Doing the latter will have the Old Man lightly remark "look at him go" and Robo will land next to a pair of bodyguards he met at the entrance, with one reacting shocked and saying "Holy Shit!", while the other cooly remarks that Robocop might not be a pile of junk after all.
