* WomenDrivers: Fiona deliberately exploits this assumption. Gerard's thugs won't let Michael out of their sight, so Fiona rear-ends the thug's car and pretends to be a BrainlessBeauty who just hit the car by mistake. The thug falls for it completely and just asks for Fi's phone number, so she asks Mike for a pen to write it down, allowing Mike to surreptitiously give her a message.

* YouAreTooLate: The initial plan to get the antivirals is just to have Sam in his "Chuck Finley" persona pose as a possible dealer interested in them, but Gerard tells him he sold them off recently and he's got enough personal honor as a "businessman" to not be interested in "unselling" them to an imaginary client's deep pockets.

* TheDreaded: Michael convinces Gerard that Sam's "Chuck Finley" persona is this, spinning a story that Chuck is a former CIA agent involved in black ops, who now has a racket of hiring criminals to do jobs for him, then killing everyone as soon as the job is over.

* NeedleInAStackOfNeedles: Michael discovers where Gerard stores his stolen goods until they can be sold--but it's a massive warehouse mainly used by an office supply company. (Gerard bribes the security guards and warehouse manager to let them store his stuff off-the-books.) Sam and Virgil don't have enough time to search about 10,000 crates for the stolen antivirals, so they have to scare Gerard into getting them into the open himself.
* ObfuscatingDisability: To further sell his persona as "Jackson", the harmless chemist, Michael pretends to have asthma and takes a puff from an inhaler any time he gets particularly upset.

-->'''Michael:''' Most people think that shooting the gas tank of a vehicle makes it explode. Unless a car's on fire, you'll just spill a few bucks worth of gas. An explosion requires something extra like a few bags of acetone peroxide taped to the gas tank.
* TechnicolorScience: Exploited. Sam and Vergil need fake mega-steroids for Gerard to hijack, so they just pour some bright yellow-green energy drinks into skinny glassware and pass those off as the steroids. What helps sell the switch is they also rig up a fake cyogenic pod, to scare the hijackers away from examining the "steroids" too closely, lest they lose a finger to frostbite.
* AWolfInSheepsClothing: Michael infiltrates the gang by tricking Gerard into forcibly recruiting him. To that end, Michael plays the role of "Jackson", a nerdy chemist in the lab that makes the steroids Gerard wants to steal. To sell Jackson as a complete wimp and make Gerard underestimate him, he slouches his shoulders, walks with a shuffle, doesn't fight back when Gerard's thugs rough him up, talks in an awkward and uncertain manner, and [[ObfuscatingDisability fakes a case of asthma]].
