  • Travers manages to track the locator he put on the bag of money before the rest of the crooks. However, he notices it moving around erratically until he eventually reaches it and finds that Gabe put the tracker on a rabbit. Furious, Travers wildly opens fire out of frustration. The rabbit pops back up completely unscathed.
    • While his subsequent Villainous Breakdown is frightening, it does contain one pretty funny exchange:
    Travers: (to Qualen, via radio) They beat us. A couple of fuckin' hick mountain rangers beat us! They beat the man no law agency ever could. And I'm finding that pretty fuckin' hilarious, Qualen!
  • Hal trading some Casual Danger Dialogue with one of his captors.
    Hal: Delmar, from me to you, you're an asshole.
    Delmar: Yeah? And you're a loud-mouth punk slag, who's about to die.
    Hal: Maybe. But in a minute I'll be dead, and you, will always be an asshole.
  • The above exchange and the it scene itself is Hilarious in Hindsight considering both actors would both participate in the Call of Duty First-Person Shooter video game franchise with Hal's actor working for the one of franchise's developers Treyarch and be well known as the NPC Mike Harper from Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Delmar's actor being employed by the other Infinity Ward and be well known as the NPC Ghost from Modern Warfare. Making it overall look like a showdown between the said franchise's NPC Ensemble Dark Horses from two different developers.
  • The inevitable wisecrack when Walker has to burn some of the money to survive the night: "It's costing a fortune to heat this place."
  • Qualen throwing an injured henchman out of the plane.
    Kynette: He's hurt bad. What should we do with him?
    Qualen: Get him to a hospital... fast.
