** Karoshic is an interesting variation: he ''pays you money'' before stealing your gear. If you're particularly unlucky, he can steal your .44 Magnum, which is then LostForever.

* ContrivedCoincidence: A young, brilliant woman scientist happened to be classmates with an ActionGirl and a {{Badass}} PrivateDetective who had enough free time to leave his thriving practice in Florida (J.R. describes himself as the "best PI in Florida", though he could exaggerate) and come to investigate.

* TookALevelInBadass: Faythe very quickly turns from a quietly living woman who's afraid to go to a neighbouring part of town into an ActionGirl who's as {{Badass}} as J.R.

Misuse. It\'s Genre Savvy, not just \"savvy\".


* DeliveryGuyInfiltration: How J.R. infiltrates Club 10 in Central Cobra. The boss is GenreSavvy enough to see through Faythe's ruse, but he's away, and J.R. manages to fool the secretary.

* DistressBall: Faythe in Central Cobra. J.R. and Faythe ''know'' that the "modeling agency" is really a human trafficking ring, and yet Faythe goes there alone and easily believes the GenreSavvy boss' BlatantLies about Donna and allows herself to be locked in a room. StupidityIsTheOnlyOption indeed...

* GenreSavvy: We have to give this to Kaiser - he's averted a lot of EvilOverlordList items. He's got the city (which is remote enough for everything to remain unnoticed) under total control, and his minions are loyal and aren't harbouring any thoughts of betraying him. If an unknown variable (J.R.) hadn't turned up, he'd most likely have succeeded in flooding the world's markets with Accocin.
