* In the Nod campaign, the dark/cringe comedy in "Today's Execution", as Maychek and Oxanna cheerily describe the impending fates of the condemned.

* After Oxanna saves Slavik from certain death by execution she delivers the following reprisal of EVA's welcome-back message:
-->'''Oxanna:''' [[LegallyDead Dead and back commander, dead and back.]]
* When Slavik arrives back at the Montauk, he is none the wiser when dealing with his would-be replacement:
-->'''Rogue Liutennant:''' (stunned look) Sir! it's an honour to have you back-''(BANG!)''-OOOAR!!
-->'''Slavik:''' Traitor.
* During the second Nod Mission cutscene, Maychek is reading out Slavik and Oxanna's death reports while they are watching:
-->'''Maychek:''' In a related story, we were all saddened to learn that our colleague, Oxanna Kristos was killed in a tunnel collapse near her home. The was ruled accidental by authorities.
-->'''Slavik:''' I hear you're dead lieutenant, rest in peace.

(Maychek is interupped by Oxanna casually walking in and filling the vacant newscasting space next to him.)
-->'''Maychek:''' Well this... is a surprise...
-->'''Oxanna:''' Please, Continue.
-->'''Maychek:''' Head of GDI forces General Soloman is said to have become mentally unstable, The-''[[KilledMidSentence (BAM!)]]''
* At the end of "Destroy Vega's Base", Kane gives Caesar Vega a talking-down-to when Vega pleads for reinforcements, suggesting he take lessons from [=McNeil=] that he'll carry for the rest of his seven-minute lifespan. Kane proceeds to punish Vega's [[YouHaveFailedMe failure]] by ordering a nuke to strike his command center which makes Vega [[OhCrap reach out in a pleading gesture]]. Kane's almost-amused facial expression at the beginning of the video conference can elicit laughter on its own.
* The dark comedy continues when Slavik asks CABAL to define "favourable outcome". Three words: "They all '''die'''."
** And ''Firestorm'' adds its own moment after Slavik has a GDI EVA unit stolen for his own use on the basis that while less advanced than CABAL, at least it won't try to kill them:
-->'''Slavik:''' EVA, state attack analysis.
-->'''EVA:''' GDI casualty rates unacceptable. This course of action will-
-->'''Slavik:''' Stop! ''(aside)'' What's our status on the EVA reprogramming?

-->'''Technician:''' ''(offscreen)'' Done.

-->'''EVA:''' Nod casualty rate well within acceptable parameters.
-->'''Slavik:''' Much better.

* Speaking of Mack, when he declares that he only cares about rescuing Tratos as long as the guy can lead him to Vega, Umagon angrily asks him "''Do you love '''nothing'''?''" Without missing a beat, Mack immediately replies "''I love to win.''" in an almost bored tone.

* The Nod campaign starts off with the BlackComedy of the propaganda newscast's "Today's Execution" feature, as Maychek and Oxanna cheerily describe the impending fate of the condemned.
-->'''Maychek:''' Good evening. By permission of General Hassan himself, it is with great honor that we bring you the following [[PublicExecution live execution.]] One vision, one purpose. Oxanna?\\
'''Oxanna:''' One vision, one purpose, Maychek.\\
'''Maychek:''' I can tell from all the virt-comm traffic tonight that this execution is a special one.\\
'''Oxanna:''' Yes, ''very'' special. I've been told the mixture this evening is 100% toxin and ''no'' sedative. If everything goes as planned, our traitor should remain fully conscious to the painful end.\\
'''Maychek:''' We'll keep our fingers crossed!

'''Slavik:''' Traitor.
** And then there's CABAL's EstablishingCharacterMoment, showing that he's certainly not a knock-off EVA unit.
--->'''CABAL:''' [[AC:A division of Hassan's elite guard is closing in on our position. The probability of a favourable outcome can be increased if we can return to our main base and engage the enemy as we move.]]\\
'''Slavik:''' Define "favourable outcome," CABAL.\\
'''CABAL:''' [[AC:They all]] ''[[AC:die]].''\\
'''Slavik:''' (''without missing a beat'') That'll do. Let's go, no man or structure stays standing.
