  • The Horsemen hijack the launch party for Owen Case's software.
    • Lula pretends to be a chef who cuts her own arm with a knife. When pretending to "Rage Quit", she hurls the fake left arm prosthetic that's part of her act here.
    • Atlas dresses as a security guard, enters the security booth, and takes an instant photograph of the guard on duty, Bill Walsh, pockets his radio and calls for backup. While talking over the real Walsh, Atlas slaps a sticker on the guard's right wrist, meaning that when backup arrives, they think the real guy is an escaped mental patient named "Mark D. Stooge". As Walsh resists the security trying to lead him out, Jack makes his approach and swaps the guard's phone for a banana.
  • The Horsemen scream as they fall down a chute while fleeing. Then we cut to Owen Case screaming back in the media room, as he's still under Merritt's hypnosis and repeating everything Merritt says to him through his earpiece.
  • Merritt telling the other Horsemen that their escape from the Case presentation has caused them to end up in a restaurant in Macau:
    Lula: At least—and I know this isn't much consolation—but apparently we're now surrounded by Chinese food. Right?
    Merritt: Guys? I think where we are right now, they don't refer to it as Chinese food. It's just called "food".
  • To infiltrate the lab to get the chip, the Horsemen replace members of Hannes Pike's retinue, which include a doctor and a bit on the side named Buffy. When they talk to their contact at the lab, Atlas introduces himself as the doctor...and is thrown for a loop when their contact addresses Lula as the doctor.
    Allen Scott-Frank: Does Hannes's chippy always talk for you, doctor? [Atlas gives Lula a confused look] Doctor?
    Jack: Um, sorry. When you-when you say "chippy", you are referring to Buffy here, yeah? [pats Atlas on the shoulder]
    Allen Scott-Frank: Of course.
    Merritt: Oh. Hannes prefers the term "floozy" for all his boy-toys.
    • The other Horsemen get a kick out of ridiculing Atlas for being stuck as the "bit on the side". Lula takes delight in making him hold her gum, and Merritt thinks it's an appropriate name given Atlas's physique.
