* LimaSyndrome: Captain Nemo and his crew take Willy and the others prisoner and refuse to let them go so that they can't tell the world about the ''Nautilus'', but they're treated reasonably well, with only Sergeant Pat being truly malicious towards them. Captain Nemo (who insists on calling them his guests), Oliver and Sam become particularly close with them to the point of allowing them (even the constantly defiant Ned Land) to help around the ship. [[spoiler:Oliver helps them escape in the final episode, with Sam wishing them luck and Captain Nemo ultimately accepting their departure as well.]]



* TokenEvilTeammate: Sergeant Pat is the most black-hearted named member of the ''Nautilus''. While Captain Nemo, Oliver and Sam the cook quickly befriend their prisoners and earn some respect from Ned Land, Pat is giving them, especially Willy, trouble either out of spite or to advance himself. Captain Nemo views sinking ships as a necessary evil and Oliver goes along with it out of loyalty to Captain Nemo even though he personally thinks it's wrong, but Pat outright enjoys sinking ships. Eventually, Pat's murder attempt on Willy makes Captain Nemo declare him a traitor, after which Pat decides to kill both him and Willy.

** To get to Iceland from London, the group take a train to the coast, a ship to France, another train through Germany to Denmark, and then another ship from Copenhagen to Reykjavik. This is a rather circituous route, especially since the show is ''probably'' set prior to the building of the Great Belt Bridge, meaning there must have been a ''third'' ocean crossing we weren't shown to get from the Jutland peninsula to Zealand. In fact, Copenhagen leaves them ''further'' away from Iceland than they would be if they'd just taken a train up to Scotland and chartered a ship in Glasgow.
