As dark as this series is, it is going to be lacking in humour, but it is not non existent.

Season 1, Episode 1

  • Just the fact that M.K. is introduced while in a trunk.
  • The first meeting between Sunny and M.K. can provoke some laughs, including M.K. lampshading Sunny's non-indicative name:
    M.K.: "You got a name? Or do you just show up, kill people, and leave?"
    Sunny: "If I tell you, will you shut up?"
    M.K.: "Can't make any promises."
    Sunny: "Sunny"
    M.K.: "Sunny? Why, 'cause you brighten everybody's day?"
    Sunny: "Dig."
    • The fact that Veil is teaching Sunny, an assassin with hundreds of kills on his back, to read using The Cat in the Hat.

Season 2, Episode 5

  • Bajie reminisces about a wild birthday party where he got blackout drunk and woke up totally naked. Turns out it was his eleventh birthday.

Season 1, Episode 3

  • "She'll be the one running for her life."

Season 3, Episode 4

  • A cannibal imprisons Sunny, Bajie, and Moon for the night, saying "Don't worry. I'll wake you up for breakfast." And Bajie sincerely laughs at his joke.

Season 3, Episode 6

  • While Bajie gets into a fight to protect his ex-wife, Sunny just sits down and enjoys a drink.
    • Better still, among the "weapons" Bajie uses during this fight are an entire octopus and a DURIAN.

Season 3, Episode 10

  • While hiding out in a department store, Sunny puts a mannequin in a wheelchair and argues with it as if it were Waldo.

Season 3, Episode 11

  • Cressida comes to visit Lydia and Nathaniel and, before she leaves, tells them to replace the Widow's butterfly banners with Pilgrim's. A tense political confrontation ending with an offhand remark about interior decorating.
