  • Eight Mercenaries and a Toddler:
    • The Soldier being Scout's "horsey" and getting into character in his own way.
    Soldier: Neigh! I am a horsey! A terrifying horsey of the Apocalypse! I have a mane of fire and eyes that glow like the fires of hell! ROAR! NEIGH! FEAR ME!
    • The Medic calls the Administrator and requests another day of ceasefire with the excuse of the team contracting food poisoning by consuming "ze traditional Scottish dish known as haggis". If you remember last chapter, the Medic and Heavy excused themselves from Demoman preparing dinner. Talk about...now what trope was that again? It turns out to be all a ruse to buy some time, the idea coming from Heavy.
  • I'll Be Home for the Holidays:
    • The little exchange Sniper and Spy have in Chapter 16 over a billabong.
    Sniper: I am speakin' English! It's a billabong!
    Spy: Oh, you're speaking Australian again.
    Sniper: I'm not speaking Australian, ya stupid blighter!
    Spy: I cannot—mate—understand—kangaroos—your accent—God save the Queen!—mate.
    • This dialogue in chapter 7 about Spy coming to Sniper's home for the holidays.
    Sniper: I mean, I dunno how ta explain ya. 'Oh, Mum and Dad, hope ya don't mind but I brought my pet Spy home 'cause he don't have nowhere else ta go. Be sure ta feed him twice a day and if he starts sappin' the kitchen appliances whack him wif a rolled-up newspaper—'
  • Machines Don't Bleed:
    • Medic's reaction to Scout annoying him one time too much: taking him by the ear and hauling him around.
    • Spy's attempts at playing chess with Sniper. Sniper just does not understand that "Kamikaze chess" does not mean flipping over the board and pieces.
    • Pyro calling Sniper (the tallest merc) and Spy (slim but not without strength) "scrawny little mites. If they run into trouble, they're gonna need some muscle there to back 'em up." Cue both men glaring at each other, wondering how is the scrawniest.
