* SadisticChoice: A rare heroic example occurs when the heroes face off against D'Arby. The gambler's already taken Polnareff and Joseph's souls and makes Jotaro bet his in a game of poker, and he's already lost half of it in the previous round. Jotaro then bluffs D'Arby by using Star Platinum's super speed to light a cigarette and get a glass of juice, making him think Jotaro could have swapped his hand for a better one. Then he not only bets the rest of his soul, he bets Avdol's, ''Kakyoin's'' (who's in the hospital at the moment), and '''''his own mother's''''', all to force D'Arby into one of these; since he doesn't have enough soul chips to match Jotaro's bet, D'Arby has to wager ''the secret of DIO's stand'' to stay in the game. If he calls Jotaro's raise and loses, he'll have to tell them-- which means DIO will kill him. But if he folds, they'll likely beat the information out of him anyway. The stakes of such a bet, the idea that Jotaro could both outmaneuver AND outcheat the self-proclaimed "greatest gambler in the world", and Jotaro's sheer level of confidence and faith in his own cards when he won't even look at his hand all frighten D'Arby to the point where he becomes a gibbering wreck who ''physically can't bring himself to call Jotaro's raise and passes out on his feet''.

This is explained in supplementary materials; the Hermit Purple-like Stand is actually Jonathan's Stand, which Dio has some control over due to possessing his body.

Then Avdol's attempts to slide himself down to Joseph's legs [[FromBadToWorse makes it look like he's sucking the old man off]].

Eventually, an old lady who was smitten with Joseph walks in on the two during the worst of their curse, at which point she angrily starts whipping Joseph with her umbrella. At this point, Joseph is humiliated enough to start crying.
