* BittersweetEnding: They save the life of two innocent women but accidentally kill an innocent man and fail to save Wyatt's wife. Verges on DownerEnding since Anthony dies trying to prevent further contamination of the timeline.
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: A police officer is injured in a car wreck. When asked if he was wearing his seatbelt, he says "No, because I'm not nine years old."
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: Anthony dies in a borderline RedemptionEqualsDeath as while he fails the mission, he does do his best to save the timestream.
* MisterSandmanSequence: The trip to the 80s is full of references to the pop culture of the period which is still relevant to both Rufus and Wyatt as well as the majority of the audience due to the closeness of it to the present timeline.
* {{Retgone}}: A rare occasion where the heroes attempt this as they attempt to prevent the conception of a serial killer.
