* AmusingInjuries: Animated!D'Argo is subjected to a wide array of punishment, such as being squashed, blown up, shot in the face, and shredded.
* {{BFG}}: Animated!D'Argo sets up a giant cannon on a cliff to blast his prey from a great distance away. It fails because of the unexpected recoil and how Animated!Crichton was actually sitting on the cannon's barrel right in front of the magnifying glass.
* ChekhovsGag: Before getting knocked unconscious, Crichton tells D'Argo to stop acting like WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam. Rather than being just one of his many shout-outs, it sets up his cartoony coma sequences.
* DistinctionWithoutADifference: In his mind, Crichton acknowledges how D'Argo tried to kill him. Pilot says that's an overstatement, being a result of D'Argo's temper rather than a deliberate attempt. Crichton concedes that, but he says it still adds up to the same result.
* DumbBlonde: As a ''Baywatch'' lifeguard, Animated!Aeryn plays this up for laughs, deliberately sounding confused over what she's even supposed to do like this.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: In true ''Looney Tunes'' fashion. Almost all of Animated!D'Argo's plans rely on excessive gadgets or elaborate traps, with all of them backfiring in one way or another. In Crichton's mind, Chiana points out the aggressor always makes things more complicated than they need to be, which in turn always gives the target a way to cause a backfire. From there, Animated!Crichton proceeds to just hang back to watch elaborate traps get set up and then deliberately throw a wrench in the works.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In TheTeaser, D'Argo remarks he hasn't had much to do lately, referencing how the Moya episodes have been more stand-alone compared to the Talyn ones.
* PercussiveMaintenance: Chiana's preferred solution was to shoot the control panel in D'Argo's ship. D'Argo has to stop her, though.
* ThePowerOfHate: Harvey keeps urging Crichton to give into this, saying revenge is the strongest emotion and that such raw hatred is the only way to emerge from the coma. When Crichton does take his revenge in a couple live-action sequences, nothing happens. As Crichton tells Harvey, embracing hatred may work for someone like Scorpius but not him.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In the immediate fallout of Crichton being in a coma and Moya being in danger, Chiana lets D'Argo have it. It's what leads to D'Argo throwing his Qualta Blade into the depths of the ship.

Not only is Crichton smirking at Harvey's impotent rage throughout this scene, but when Harvey demands that he take the possibility of revenge seriously, Crichton just takes advantage of the cartoon format to [[AnvilOnHead drop a 1000-ton weight on his head]].

* ARottenTimeToRevert: Crichton's cartoon self can't be realistically hurt or killed. For good measure, whenever he gets too close to failure, he ducks out of the fantasy and tries another. Unfortunately, after his third attempt at stopping D'Argo via Looney Tunes escapades, Crichton tries to fly his module through a wormhole to the real world - only for the wormhole to turn out to be an image painted on a rock wall. Cue massive explosion. Crichton is reverted to his live-action self at ''exactly'' the right time to suffer realistic injuries, leaving him crippled as imaginary D'Argo moves in for the kill.

After asking Crichton to give her some proper clothes, Aeryn is redrawn with a giant pencil, only to end up looking like Jessica Rabbit; annoyed at Crichton's lack of imagination, Aeryn snaps the pencil in half and begins shapeshifting into various sexy personas on her own: in quick succession, she becomes Marylin Munroe, Cleopatra, Dorothy Gale, Madonna, and Pamela Anderson... and when Crichton asks if she can become Sharon Stone a la ''Basic Instinct,'' she immediately becomes a finger-wagging Nancy Reagan, [[FanDisservice much to Crichton's horror]], before becoming Aeryn again.
