* CapeSnag: Darkwing gets his cape caught in the hood of a car just when the animated Hamburger Hippo bears down on him. He pointedly tells Launchpad to remind him not buy anymore rip-proof capes.

While tracking Negaduck, Darkwing runs afoul of a witch doctor after his EvilTwin steals an amulet that can bring inanimate objects to life. The resulting bad luck curse makes defeating Negaduck even more difficult.
!!This episode includes examples of the following tropes:
* AbhorrentAdmirer: One of Darkwing's fan club, a stout lady, apparently has a CelebCrush on him. Darkwing doesn't enjoy her attempts to show her affection.
* AnythingButThat: The witch doctor's two assistants say he should punish Darkwing any other way (including boiling oil) but with the curse of eternal bad luck.
* PantheraAwesome: Negaduck brings a lion statue to life to chase his nemesis.
* ShoutOut:
** When explaining something, Darkwing says, "[[Franchise/SherlockHolmes Elementary, my dear Launchpad.]]"
** One of the magic words the witch doctor uses is "[[Disney/{{Cinderella}} Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo]]."
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Both Gosalyn and Negaduck independently express the opinion that Darkwing's fan club looks more like a fundraiser for the "Save the Geeks" foundation.
* TemptingFate: Taken to a hilarious extreme. A disbelieving Darkwing is struck with a bad luck curse, and constantly dares the universe to prove it. It does, of course.
-->'''Darkwing''': ''(falling off the hideout)'' You see? My luck isn't bad! I could have fallen a thousand feet to my demise! ''(falls)''
-->'''Darkwing''': You see? My luck isn't bad! I could have been hit by a car! ''(gets hit by a car)''
-->'''Darkwing''': You see? My luck isn't bad... (etc)
