* RaceAgainstTheClock: The Saint of Killers gives Jesse one hour to find him a soul before he kills Tulip and Cassidy.

* SealedEvilInACan: Rather than send the Saint back to Hell (which could be a problem now that he has one percent of Jesse's soul), Jesse locks him in the back of the Soul Happy Go Go van and drives it into a swamp in Angelville.
* SoulEating: The beginning of the episode shows a poor couple selling something, which we later find out is the man's soul, which the company then sells to rich people as cures for ailments. Later on, when Jesse gives the Saint of Killers the one percent of his soul that was extracted, the Saint promptly eats it.

* BarehandedBladeBlock: Cassidy grabs the Saint's sword blade to keep him from swinging it at Tulip. A more realistic version of this trope than usual, since he catches it as the Saint is pulling it back for the strike rather than when it's already in motion, and it still doesn't turn out too well for him - see {{Fingore}}, below.
