3
4* ArtisticLicenseHistory: One of the surfers Gorgon befriends mentions that Hawai'i used to have a king before the Americans showed up. The last reigning Hawai'ian monarch was ''Queen'' Liliʻuokalani. However, she was the first and only Queen of Hawai'i, and before her were all kings so the surfer could very well be using a broad generalization.
5* BoxedCrook: Sammy gets tasked by Dr. Declan to safely bring Black Bolt to him in exchange for his freedom.
6* BreakTheHaughty: Black Bolt gets to show off that he's largely invulnerable and super strong when dealing with the cops, but he does end up going to prison and isn't treated with the deference he ordinarily receives in Attilan.
7* BrokenAce: After hitting his head, Karnak's AwesomeByAnalysis powers are now jacked up, as he discovers when he [[NegatedMomentOfAwesome tries to escape from his confinement by the drug dealers]].
8* ContinuityNod: Black Bolt is asked if he was [[Series/AgentsOfSHIELD experimented]] [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica on]] or [[ComicBook/SpiderMan bitten by a radioactive bug]] before his cellmate correctly identifies him as an Inhuman when he responds to [[Series/AgentsOfSHIELD stone husks growing on him]].
9* TheDreaded: Mordis is this for everyone in Attilan.
10* EvenEvilHasStandards: Auran is not comfortable with having Mordis as backup, as he is ''just death''.
11* FollowThatCar: Medusa orders Louise to follow the helicopter that Black Bolt is in.
12* ItsPersonal: The prison guard who keeps picking on Black Bolt is angry because one of the cops he seriously injured was his brother-in-law.
13* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Auran and her team do not seem to like Mordis very much. The feeling is mutual.
14* KleptomaniacHero: Medusa steals clothes and food from a civilian.
15* KnowWhenToFoldEm: Gorgon orders his allies to retreat after Mordis shows up and completely demolishes their hiding place.
16* MissedHimByThatMuch: Medusa reaches the prison where Black Bolt is being held...just as he and his cellmate escape via helicopter.
17* OddFriendship: Black Bolt befriends a brutish-looking inmate named Sammy while in prison. Becomes considerably less odd when Sammy turns out to be an Inhuman.
18* OhCrap: Gorgon's expression screams this when he sees Mordis show up with Auran's men.
19* PersonOfMassDestruction: Mordis is stated to be the second most powerful Inhuman in Attilan next to Black Bolt. He demonstrates his powers to terrifying effect while fighting Gorgon and his allies on Earth.
20* PlayingWithFire: Black Bolt's cellmate is able to, at the very least, melt solid metal.
21* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Mordis and Auran make it very clear that they're only working together for Maximus's sake.
