* {{Acrofatic}}: At the very least the power-slide scene qualifies both Jack and Kyle for this. Jack also gets a chance to showcase his climbing and jumping skills during the "Break In City" sequence.

Seems like a stretch to me. JB says that Satan must go back to hell if Tenacious D wins, whereas Satan "can" take Kage back to hell if he wins instead. That the Devil is allowed to take Kage back to hell does not necessarily restrict him from leaving hell again whenever he wants. I figure that the Devil wouldn’t have agreed to the terms if there was such an obvious trick in it, and the fact that there’s no third party more powerful than the devil to referee the contest means Satan is pretty much free to interpret the agreement however he wants.


* MortonsFork: The stakes of the rock-off end up being this for Satan. If he loses, he must go back to Hell (and also pay Tenacious D's rent). If he wins, he takes Kage back to Hell as a sex slave. ''Either way he has to go back to Hell''.

* RedHerring: Between his strange, menacing manner, odd accent, and knowledge of the Pick, you might think that The Stranger at the diner who tells JB how to breach museum security is Satan in disguise, trying to enlist help to reclaim the Pick. He's not. [[spoiler:Instead it's [[TheDogWasTheMastermind the MC at the open mic night]] who was Satan is disguise.]]

** A one-legged Stranger gives J.B. advice on stealing the Pick from a museum. The duo then find him waiting outside when they leave the museum hoping to rob them at knifepoint. The guys easily run away due to him having one leg.
** The mic host convinces the duo that they don't actually need the Pic to succeed. After they leave, he [[spoiler:picks it up and reveals himself to be The Devil]].
