5	* BadBadActing: The Mainframe Strolling Players' segments are high on ham and questionable line delivery.

7	'''Stagehand:''' ''[off-screen]'' Psst! "Guardian." "''Guardian''!"
8	* BigNo: Dot when Bob tells her their chances of winning the game are nil.
9	* BigYes: Dot when she takes out the User the first time.
10	* BlatantLies: Enzo builds himself up as a mighty Guardian in order to impress [=AndrAIa=].
11	* CerebusRetcon: Enzo being the only "Child" humanoid is explained to be the result of an accident involving his father's experiment destroying the city where Lost Angles is.
12	* CloningGambit: In order to exist outside of the game, [=AndrAIa=] plants a backup of herself on Enzo's icon so that a copy of herself will appear in Mainframe.
13	* ContinuityNod:
14	** While talking about rebooting, Bob brings up the time Enzo rebooted as a damsel from "Quick and The Fed".
15	** The Mainframe Strolling Players recreate scenes from "Quick and The Fed" (the climax specifically) and "The Crimson Binome" (Bob in the cell).
16	* ExactWords: When Dot says she told Enzo to never go into a game alone, Bob asks if she ever told him to move if a Gamecube was about to fall on him.
17	* {{Foreshadowing}}: When discussing the types of Game Sprites, Bob mentions how artificial intelligence learn and adapt.
18	* FromBadToWorse: It seems like a conventional game, but the User has 15 lives.

22	* NearVillainVictory: Due to having so many lives in the featured game, the User comes this close to winning and thus nullifying the main trio.
23	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: En route to the treasure, Bob and Dot fend off various sharks. As a result, they unintentionally cleared the way for the User (although, in their case, this is somewhat justified, as Bob stated a while back that the Game Sprites would be after them too).
24	* ObfuscatingStupidity: In the last scene, Bob questions Enzo calling himself a Guardian. [=AndrAIa=] gives a knowing glance, indicating she's more aware of the truth than she's let on.
25	* RammingAlwaysWorks: How Enzo stops the User from claiming the treasure outright. He slams his little sub into the User's, crippling both.

28	** Bob's homework for the refresher course students is to read up on ''VideoGame/{{Pong}}'' and ''VideoGame/SpaceInvaders''.
29	* TooDumbToLive: Two Binomes trigger a bomb capable of destroying a planet while ''inside'' said planet.
30	* UnwantedAssistance: After the first game, Bob berates two Binomes for stupid actions that made things worse for everyone. Dot suggests he teach a refresher course.
