Tempting Fate: In "Surveillance", Quick and Foster are sent to the intelligence services, where they are tasked with watching a house. While watching the house, Quick has a flight of fancy about dangerous criminals bursting out of it guns blazing. Once he tells Foster about it, a group of criminals do come out shooting, and Quick and Foster run for it.

Locked in a Room: "Walled In" sees Quick and Foster trapped in their office when workers refurbishing the building accidentally nail up and plaster over their door. Foster reassures Quick that they'll get out, only to lose his nerve and break down in panic.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The Minister's name is never given, and he is only referred to as "Minister".

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In "Surveillance", Quick and Foster are ordered to supervise a house, only for criminals to burst out shooting for them. Naturally, the pair don't stick around and run for their lives.
