- The opening scene, which features Lee, sharply dressed, perfectly-coiffed, and performing assorted office tasks while her arms are restrained at shoulder-height in a spreader bar. Through it all she performs all of her tasks with perfect grace, with the one exception of stapling some documents, which she does by suddenly slamming the stapler with her chin.
- After Edward gets the worm in the mail, he outlines it with a red pen as if it was a typo.
- Lee very blandly going, "Oh. Oh." while having sex with Peter.
- During the film's climax, Lee is trying to convince Mr. Grey to take her back, so he orders her to sit at his desk without moving her hands and feet. What proceeds is a surreal sequence where seemingly everyone she knows visits the office to talk to her, variously trying to comfort her, convince her to give up on Grey, or support her. Of note is Grey's ex claiming to admire her and complimenting her on the worm. When Grey finally comes back to the office, he reacts to the crowd gathered outside his office, to include police and news crews, with a nonplussed reaction.
- The fact that the dom in the relationship is named Mr. Grey.
