* NeverSayDie: Instead of Mal saying he'll kill Alejandro and Heather if they get in his way, he claims he'll "bury them alive".



* YankTheDogsChain: Chris boasts of how fearsome and dangerous the final challenge will be, capping off with how the lawyers told them to change it. When Zoey asks if changes were made, Chris says he ''told'' the lawyers he did.

* SuddenContestFormatChange: After [[spoiler:Mike defeats Mal and reconciles with Zoey]], Chris gets annoyed with the touchy-feely attitudes and lack of tense competition, so he declares that ''anybody'' who gets to the target first -- including the helpers, not ''just'' the finalists -- can win the million dollars. This triggers Alejandro and Heather to go from SickeninglySweethearts to their typical competitive selves.

* TheBigDamnKiss: Mike and Zoey share one at the end of the episode. While they did kiss in the first episode, this time, it's a ''real'' one (lips-to-lips).
* BittersweetEnding: Mal has been defeated, Mike no longer has to worry about his disorder anymore and he gets Zoey, the money and all of the skills his personalities had. On the other hand, he had to do it at the cost of losing his personalities (who are most likely gone for good). Camp Wawanaka has also been sunk and the contestants in the balloons float away, giving them all an UncertainDoom.
* BookEnds: The first episode of ''All-Stars'' has Zoey giving Mike a kiss on the cheek. The final episode of ''All-Stars'' has her kissing him again, this time on the lips.



* EvenEvilHasStandards: Mal has an OhCrap expression on his face when Chef and Chris announce the dangerous final challenge. '''''[[{{TheSociopath}} MAL]]'''''.

** The eliminated contestants who were never released from their baloons and were last seen flying away inside of them. While WordOfGod confirms their balloons eventually popped and they survived the fall by falling into the water, it's not specified whether they ever got to return to society and if not - how long they survived wherever they landed. Once again, the TimeSkip of the seventh season doesn't help the chances for the question to be answered.

** Alejandro and Heather are last seen swimming away from Fang after Camp Wawanakwa sinks, as Mike got Fang obsessed with them by giving Alejandro Fang's missing tooth. However, as no following seasons have featured the villainous couple, it's hard to know if they escaped with their lives or not.

** All the season's contestants, minus the finalists and their helpers, are last seen floating away inside the balloons which Chris and Owen put them in and are never seen for the rest of the episode. Though WordOfGod claims that they safely landed on the water when their balloons popped, it's left unspecified if they were ever retrieved or not.

* KeepingtheHandicap: Zigzagged. Mike initially refuses to get rid of his personalities. While he does go through with it, he only does so because it's necessary to stop Mal. Manitoba and Vito assure Mike that the button won't truly get rid of them and that they will always be a part of Mike in some way, which clearly comforts him. However, in TheStinger, Mike says that it's possible he won't even miss communicating with his alters, but that may be because of the SplitPersonalityMerge.
