8 | !!''Pigeon: Impossible'' provides examples of the following tropes: |
9 | |
10 | * ANuclearError: One button push in a briefcase is enough to launch a nuclear missile at Moscow. |
11 | * [[AwesomeBackpack Awesome Briefcase]]: Beckett's briefcase can fly, has twin laser cannons, launches anti-tank missiles, [[spoiler: and launches ''nuclear'' missiles]]. |
12 | * FeatheredFiend: The titular pigeon, who catches on to the briefcase's controls - ''especially'' its weapons systems - [[IntellectualAnimal remarkably quickly]]. |
13 | * LaserGuidedKarma: At the end of the short, [[spoiler: the pigeon has gotten the bagel it was craving...and gets squashed by a falling piece of missile debris]]. |
14 | * TheMenInBlack: The CIA 'uniform' has the requisite black suit, and Beckett's handler wears dark glasses. |
15 | * WeaponizedLandmark: [[spoiler: The Washington Monument]] contains a Titan II intercontinental ballistic missile. |
