* KickTheSonOfABitch:
** While most of Hoffman's victims were handpicked from John's will, one of the few he tests of his own accord is a gang of neo-Nazi skinheads for his Horsepower Trap.
** [[spoiler:Dr. Gordon does this to Hoffman by leaving him to die in the bathroom. It would be cruel if Hoffman wasn't such a murderous asshole.]]

* OnceMoreWithClarity: Asides from his two apprentices, Jigsaw had ''one more'' major accomplice, [[spoiler:the only one he completely trusted--and it was Dr. Gordon]]. This reveal is accompanied by a flashback montage of him setting up various past traps [[spoiler:in ways that Jigsaw (a mechanical engineer) and his apprentices couldn't pull off, but a surgeon could]]. These include the key for the Death Mask in ''Saw II'' and Trevor's sewn eyes in the Mausoleum Trap of ''Saw IV''.

* KarmicTwistEnding: [[spoiler:After the climax, Hoffman managed to win over the police in his final schemes before escaping the city, including finishing with Bobby's game and killing Jill. Just as he was going to the airport, Gordon, revealed to be Jigsaw's most entrusted accomplice with a plan to take out Hoffman, gets on his way (alongside Brad and Ryan, the survivors of the film's opening trap) and captures him, then locking him up to die in the bathroom where Gordon had previously been imprisoned in by Jigsaw during the [[Film/SawI first movie]].]]

* FanDisservice: Dina in the opening is probably the biggest fanservice material in the whole franchise... until she's sawn in half and her intestines spill out, anyway.

to:

* FanDisservice: With her tight-fitting shirt, which exposes her midriff and some of her bra, Dina in the opening is probably the biggest fanservice material in the whole franchise... until she's sawn in half and her intestines spill out, anyway.



* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The reason Bobby published his false story about being a victim of Jigsaw. It would allow him to earn quick cash.
* OpinionFlipFlop: When Brad starts to get the upper hand, Dina roots for him to kill Ryan. When Ryan starts to turn the tables, she starts rooting for Ryan. This gets them to see that she really doesn't love either of them, which prompts them to let her die.

* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The reason Bobby published his false story about being a victim of Jigsaw. It Jigsaw is that it would allow him to earn quick cash.
* OpinionFlipFlop: When Brad starts to get the upper hand, hand in the Public Execution Trap, Dina roots for him to kill Ryan. When Ryan starts to turn the tables, she starts rooting for Ryan. This gets them to see that she really doesn't love either of them, which prompts them to let her die.



* SayingTooMuch: In the public execution trap, either Brad or Ryan must fight to push a spinning saw onto the other man and kill him, or allow Dina to be killed by a saw instead. Initially, both of them struggle over the saws and are set to try to kill each other, but Dina makes a mistake that proves fatal to her: she first cheers for Brad when it looks like he might win, but then when Ryan starts winning, she immediately switches and starts cheering for him. The fact that Dina is willing to "love" whichever man kills the other causes Ryan to realize that she doesn't genuinely love ''either'' man (or she would have been cheering only for the one she loved), so he voluntarily gives up the struggle and convinces Brad to do the same, and Dina is killed instead.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Hoffman tries to pull this off at the end of the film -- key word being ''tries''. He [[spoiler:accomplished his goal of killing Jill]], and with his identity known to the public, there was no reason for him to stick around. After packing a lot of cash, a gun and setting his lair on fire, he makes to leave. Whether he was planning to get a new identity and put his Jigsaw life behind him or just wait until the heat had died down will likely never be answered, since [[spoiler:Lawrence took care of him]].

* TheToothHurts: One part of Bobby's game late in the film requires him to simply put in a combination so he can get through a door. However, the combination has been etched on two of his wisdom teeth, and he must extract them with a pair of locking pliers to get the combination and move forward. He's not given any anesthetic, and ends up having to throw himself against walls to force the teeth out.
