Human Shield | |
| Blind Fury / int_132d93f1 | comment |
Human Shield: Nick grabs Lyle Pike and holds him in front of him when Lyle's brother Tector is trying to shoot him. Tector ends up shooting Lyle by mistake. Cobb shoves another Mook in front of him to try and keep Nick from stabbing him in the climax. It only delays the inevitable. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
| Blind Fury / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: After Nick kills over a dozen Mooks on his way to the Big Bad, the drug dealer and his bodyguard take off before he can reach them, telling MacReady to find another buyer in the unlikely event he survives. Sensing how angry MacReady is at their departure, the bodyguard is Genre Savvy enough to keep his gun out and not turn his back on MacReady and Slag in case they get any ideas about shooting their former partners out of frustration. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade | |
| Blind Fury / int_e0c00a95 | comment |
Absurdly Sharp Blade : Nick manages to both cut through things that would in reality survive the stroke, but also make precision cuts far too delicate to be possible — such as removing someone's eyebrows without doing any damage to the skin underneath. Both are something that Zatoichi does, the first repeatedly and the second was done in Zatoichi Challenged. | |

Dirty Cop | |
| Blind Fury / int_eb251937 | comment |
Dirty Cop: When Slag comes for Mrs. Devereaux and Billy, two crooked cops assist him, so the kidnap can be staged as if Billy was eye-witness of some unspecified crime. When Mrs. Devereaux is shot by Slag, one of cops mentions that it wasn't part of their deal. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Blind Fury / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: At one point, Nick uses his sword to cut off Cobb's eyebrows and later makes a comment about "doing circumcisions" if Cobb doesn't tell him where his friend Frank was. Toward the end of the movie when Nick kills Cobb, he slices upwards between Cobbs legs before stabbing him in the gut. | |
