Chekhov's Gun | |
| Get Hard / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Capoeria, and Jame's ankle bracelet both come in handy during the final showdown. In his first scene, Martin mentions his original computer, which he still has. Later on, it turns out that it holds the evidence exonerating James. | |

Wrongful Accusation Insurance | |
| Get Hard / int_2fbab42f | comment |
Wrongful Accusation Insurance: Subverted. While James eventually exonerates himself, he is arrested and imprisoned for pulling an unlicensed concealed weapon in the course of exposing the people who set him up. Considering that he also commits trespassing and kidnapping, though, his six-month sentence is rather light. | |

| Get Hard / int_3036294e | comment |
Scary Black Man: Subverted with Darnell, despite how much he tries to pretend otherwise. His cousin Russel and his gang, however, are closer to playing this straight, though they're pretty friendly with James. | |

| Get Hard / int_33ac4749 | comment |
Obvious Judas: In-Universe. Darnell immediately figures out Martin is the one who framed James because he was the only one involved with the firm's clearing house. He can't believe James didn't realize it himself. | |

Genius Ditz | |
| Get Hard / int_58626d87 | comment |
Genius Ditz: James is a whiz when it comes to investing and business, but he's completely naive outside of those areas. After Darnell immediately figures out Martin was the one responsible for the crime and where the evidence to prove it is, he tells James he's "the dumbest genius" he's ever met. | |

N-Word Privileges: Darnell insists that James say the n-word, then when James refuses, gets him to say "knee" and "grrr" quickly. He still hits him in the face claiming it was an automatic reaction. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Darnell tries to use Gayle's gun against him, but doesn't bother to check the safety, which was off. Gayle promptly punches him and gets away. James, despite having no firearm license, holds out his gun in plain sight, predictably getting himself arrested. | |
