Scary Black Man: The BGA are obviously this. Their leader, Bonafide, exemplifies the trope to a level far beyond his subordinates. It's helped that he's played by a 6'5" Delroy Lindo sporting an Afro. | |

| Blood In Blood Out / int_33c2b1e2 | comment |
Best Served Cold: The Aryan Vanguard humiliate Miklo by forcibly removing his leg prosthetic and then throwing it a long distance like a football, forcing him to crawl to it on all fours. He patiently waits until the Mexican Day of the Dead to wipe out both the AV and the B.G.A. He can be seen lying in his prison bed with an oh so satisfied smile on his face even as he knows the murders are going down in the rest of the prison. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The B.G.A. and Aryan Vanguard are wiped out and La Onda takes over the prison with Miklo as its new leader and despite the council being separated to different prisons in the aftermath, it gives them the opportunity to expand their influence. However, Montana is dead due to Miklo and Magic setting him up, and an enraged Paco disowns Miklo for using him to take out their rivals. Thanks to a pep talk from Cruz, Paco finally comes to terms that he is responsible for the events leading to Miklo being imprisoned and Cruz getting injured. | |

Unwitting Pawn: Paco is irate when he discovers how his incarcerated cousin used him to take out Ryder and Bonafide. Miklo and Magic outplayed Paco, the Aryan Vanguard, the Black Guerilla Army, the prison staff, and even the members of La Onda's inner circle in order to rule San Quentin. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Blood In Blood Out / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: The film was so long that both theatrical and extended cuts suffer from many loose ends. Miklo’s mother goes AWOL after Juanito’s funeral. Chuy disappears completely after getting kicked out of Cruz’s studio by Paco. Popeye vanishes into thin air after tipping off Miklo’s heist to the police. Even the deleted scene in which Popeye attempts to kills Smokey leaves his fate ambiguous. | |

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness | |
| Blood In Blood Out / int_928ca2cc | comment |
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Miklo correctly predicts that once Cheap Times (the B.G.A. drug house) is destroyed by Smokey (Carlos' brother) on the Aryan Vanguard's orders, the A.V. would lift their protection from Carlos, allowing the B.G.A. to retaliate by killing Carlos. Once the A.V. is decimated, La Onda turns on the B.G.A. | |
