* Something of a Dark Humor moment in 2. The BigBad had earlier killed a man [[YouHaveFailedMe who had lost a shipment of gold coins]]. He'd had his office floor covered in plastic wrap, ostensibly because of a remodel, but actually to prevent forensic transfer. Later in the film, the BigBad is berating TheDragon, who had carried out the earlier execution, for a string of recent failures. Said Dragon begins looking around casually, and his boss demands to know what he's doing. The Dragon states that he's making sure he's not standing in plastic with a smarmy look on his face.

* The entire laughing gas scene in the fourth movie. While trying to interrogate Uncle Benny on the whereabouts of the Hong family, they give Uncle Benny some laughing gas in hopes to get him talking. It works, a little too much. The gas leaks through the mask, causing Riggs, Murtaugh and Butters to start laughing too. But they still take some for good measure. It's actually a rare moment to see them actually getting along with a villain character like Uncle Benny and having a good laugh with him.
** This is also the moment where Riggs accidently reveals Butters is actually Murtaugh's son-in-law. The exchange between Murtaugh and Butters is funny, with Butters saying "Your baby is having my baby."
** Uncle Benny gets points here to for being funny. When he says "I'm sleeping with my wife's two sisters", the other characters lose it while Riggs praises him for it. Uncle Benny saying "Not so good when my wife finds out."
** While this is happening, Leo is in the other room getting his teeth worked on which is a total nightmare to him.
