  • Fridge Brilliance: "The Copy" has a stroke of this when you realise that the whole story (at least from when the boy wakes up after using the copy machine) was told from the clone's POV without him realising it. He mentions his counterpart being really stubborn when it comes to who should hide in his room and who should interact with his parents and girlfriend. By the end of the story, the Copy has taken over his original's life and all of the mirror-imaged changes in his quirks and physical appearance are noticed. The original had noticed this and knew it would be conspicuous.
  • Moral Event Horizon: The Villain Protagonist of "The Strap-Box Flyer" crosses this line when his defective glue causes the drowning of a young boy.
    That night when Scott did not come home his father called the police. Divers searched the lake. They found Scott's body. And the broken canoe. In the bottom of the canoe was a tube of Giffen's Great Glue.
