1* The effect of Goldie's "cocktail"; it's a combination of Gamma-enhanced steroids and TITAN (of the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'') that turns anyone dosed with it into a mindless berserker with the strength of The Hulk. It's also been laced with Fear Toxin to cause the victims to hallucinate and drive them into an even greater frenzy. And to make things even worse (''yes'', a group of mindless brutes demolishing half of Chicago and killing anything in their path is ''not'' the worst part of it), the "cocktail" is mixed with half of the chemical ingredients of Kerasine, a powerful brainwashing agent... and the cure (which has been tampered with by Goldie) holds the ''other'' half of the formula. Meaning that any "Gamma-Titans" that survive their dosage and rampage long enough to be treated with the cure will be susceptible to Goldie's brainwashing.
2** ...Did I forgot to mention that this monster-juice can be delivered by ''airborne'' means?.
3* The "[[MyLittlePanzer Fakehuggers]]" have their fair share of NightmareFuel (InUniverse ''and'' out)... imagine being attacked by [[Franchise/{{Alien}} a Facehugger]] and knocked out, and waking up believing that you have been impregnated with a Chestbuster and you are pretty much living on borrowed time... a thought that easily drives you past the DespairEventHorizon and may make you have a heart attack or [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled look for a way to check out that is on your terms]]... and ''then'' someone comes and tells you that it was all a prank... it is no wonder that people sued the company that made the Fakehuggers right into bankruptcy.
4* [[spoiler:The replica]] Goldie's threat to destroy all of Manhattan [[spoiler:by allowing the Arc Reactor at the Infinite Avengers Tower go into a meltdown]] if 1) she is not let go and 2) she is not given Mari so she can turn her into her "pet". The scarier part? She is TheSociopath and ''quite'' willing to do so... and as the VillainousBreakdown-by-CombatBreakdown at the final fight keeps on going, she decides on simply destroying all of Manhattan ''to make sure that the Captains' victory [[PyrrhicVictory is Pyrrhic]] at best'' '''and''' she continues to holler at Mari that she ''will'' have her as a "pet", one way or another.
5** Special mention has to be made in regards to Goldie's desire to make a "pet" of Mari. Goldie makes "pets" of young girls by drugging them up and brainwashing them into total and complete submissiveness, ordering them to kill a close friend or family member, and then uses them as sex slaves for her own gratification. She was going to drug Mari into being a mindless slave for the rest of her life, and likely have her try to kill one or both of the people she loves and cares for the most.
