* AmbiguousSituation: Played with. When Onoff and the inspector meet each other, the latter introduces himself as [[spoiler:Leonardo da Vinci]]. It comes off as a joke. However, after the final story twist is revealed, things are not what they seem any longer, Onoff remembers this name and now it hits differently. Although, it still might have been just a joke.

* ItsASmallWorldAfterAll: Onoff is taken to a police station somewhere not very far from his country house where he meets an inspector who knows all his books, loves them and cites quotes from them all the time. This is really some kind of attention Onoff gets in a forgotten jerkwater place. The inspector has been a long time fan of Onoff and yet he seems not to have been aware that they were almost neighbours.

* CowboyCop: About a half of the policemen at the station behave like this. First they arrest Onoff for running in the rain, then they get him headbutted on the desktop while the inspector is deliberately looking the other way. But otherwise they seem to be good guys, so they are not rabid, just cowboys.
