Tempting Fate: After a tourist family is having their children get out of the water due to the threat of the crocodile, when the oldest child keeps refusing, his father exasperatedly says he hopes he gets eaten right before the crocodile snatches the boy, with the father leaping into the water in a failed attempt to rescue him. | |

| Croc / int_6eb04f1 | comment |
"Everybody Laughs" Ending: Once the croc has been killed, and people are relaxed, one of the final shots is them laughing a little when Hawkins admits that his limp came from a random accident and not a fight with a crocodile. | |

Bait-and-Switch Tyrant | |
| Croc / int_86f27af6 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Tyrant: Evelyn is first seen sternly taking note of some violations while inspecting Jack's farm, and shrugs off his claims of sabotage by the Konsongs. During her briefing, however, she does not recommend shutting the farm down, stating that the violations were minor, easily fixed ones. This causes the Konsongs to get her fired. | |

Handicapped Badass: Hawkins is a capable hunter, whose abilities are emphasized by his noticeable limp. This is actually unrelated to his hunting, and came from a forklift accident while he was in the Navy. | |

Bruiser with a Soft Center: The tough-looking Hawkins is after the crocodile not for money or a love of killing, but because it has killed dozens of people, whose pictures he has on the wall of his boat, and he wants to stop the suffering it causes, while displaying deep empathy for its victims. | |
