By the time BJ passes through there, they've DugTooDeep and disturbed various things, and faint bluish-white light glows from deeper still. Including through the open lids of the toilets set up on-site. Apparently they've just been dealing with their waste by dropping it into the abyss.

* BJ steps into a trap and is instantly strung upside down hanging by his ankles. This doesn't phase him, nor does Helga slapping him, but when she finds the map he stole she becomes excited and ''kisses'' him, and he's audibly disgusted.

* When being tortured by Rudi for a name for a collaborator, B.J. retort "Klaus", as in Santa Claus. In New Order, Klaus is the name of one of the members of the Kreisau Circle and a former Nazi, making this weirdly prophetic. Heck, being fingered as the collaborator might well be why he left...

* Dark, but it's funny how when Rudi has BJ strapped to an electrical chair, right after saying he's had help from Santa Claus BJ says he'll fry Rudi in that chair until he's dead, and then kill his dog. What happens ''immediately'' after that, when Rudi leans in close to gloat? [[spoiler: Well, he doesn't manage to strap Rudi in before Greta attacks him, so Rudi escapes after just one jolt of electricity while BJ is killing the dog.]]

* This DLC's equivalent to ''New Order'''s Laserkraftwerk, in that it's a traversal tool/weapon unique to this game, is... two lengths of pipe BJ accidentally tears out of a wall he's trying to climb. There are ''so many'' uses for it with unique animations - the pieces can be screwed together to make a bigger dual-wielded pipe, it's good for all kinds of stealth kills, regular melee bludgeoning, wall climbing, ziplines, door propping, ''hitting a button'' that's just out of reach of his hands... BJ uses this throughout the DLC, long after getting access to all kinds of more conventional weapons and tools.

* BJ goofing around with a skull in Rudi's room, doing the AlasPoorYorick scene from ''Literature/{{Hamlet}}''... and then fumbling and dropping it before he puts it back where he found it. Then again... it is less funny if you wonder where that skull came from. Or about the large bullet-sized hole in it, for that matter.

* After chasing Helga around for half the game, how epic is the final fight against her? [[spoiler:well, turns out there is no such thing, since the [[EldritchAbomination giant monster]] throws her away like a ragdoll, and when B.J. finds her bleeding to death and rambling on, he just shoots her without a word]].

* The OhCrap moment when Rudi Jäger, asks BJ if he's from Frankfurt as in, a frankfurter. BJ replies that he's "Ein 'Hot Dog'". After a {{Beat}}, Jäger and the receptionist burst out laughing. Jäger then follows up by saying he loves your parody of a "stupid American", and how he cannot wait to show them what's what once the Nazis takes over.

* When posing as a waiter in a tavern to get the file Helga is holding Blazko can overhear as a Nazi try and consoles his friend, who've wife has just left him taking the kids with her. The Funny part comes when the saddened Nazi goes on a rant of how the universe is in indffirant the individual suffering and how it is inevitable someone in his bloodline will be hurt and he won't be their to protect them. His good friends then asks if he talks to his wife like that. He answers "Sometimes." so he replies "Maybe that's way she left you."
