Furries Are Easier to Draw | |
Fuelled / int_183aadaf | comment |
Furries Are Easier to Draw: The characters are all Funny Animals who don't talk. (aside from the 911 operator, who has the only lines. And you can't see if she's a Funny Animal.). The creators stated that they liked the idea of a more Animal Crossing style, adding that it was easier to animate too. | |

Cigar-Fuse Lighting: When Cathy tries to steal a canister of gas to fuel her car, she and the gas station attendant get into a scuffle, spilling some gas in the process. When she attempts one last attack to retrieve the canister, the attendant's cigar drops out of their mouth and onto the gasoline, causing a major explosion. | |

Downer Ending: In the end, Cathy realizes what she's done, chooses not to follow through with her revenge and instead waits at the now burning gas station, calls 911, and (presumedly) turn herself in. The ending is also a bit of a purposeful Cruel Twist Ending | |

Wham Shot | |
Fuelled / int_4e7f703c | comment |
Wham Shot: Cathy keeps the police sketch of her husband's killer taped to the rear-view mirror to keep her motivated. The story begins with her looking into the sketch's crazed, malicious eyes in order to fuel her motive to keep going. And the climax Book Ends when she steps into the car after fueling it up, the motion causing the sketch to tear from age. All the while, she eagerly looks at how close she is to her destination and looks into the sketch's eyes one last time for good measure. ...only to see her own crazed, malicious eyes staring right back at her. This is the pivotal moment where she realizes she can't go through with her revenge. | |

Troubled Backstory Flashback | |
Fuelled / int_5670cddb | comment |
Troubled Backstory Flashback: The present-day events are intercut with scenes of the widow and her husband meeting, falling in love, and then finally lying down bloodied after the robber loots their house. These are used to show that Cathy Used to Be a Sweet Kid, and her late husband was her Prince Charming. They make use of Flashback Effects, mostly color aesthetics blur and bloom; and often they're intercut seamlessly, even during the Tear-Apart Tug-of-War which results in the spilled gasoline. | |

Heel Realization: After the gas station explosion caused by Cathy's Self-Destructive Charge, her first instinct upon regaining consciousness is to return to her car, refill the tank, and complete her goal... but when the "Wanted!" Poster comes loose and she sees her own eyes in the rear-view mirror where the robber's are supposed to be, she realizes what she's done and sheds Tears of Remorse, likely thinking My God, What Have I Done?, What Have I Become?, and/or If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him! before limping back to the burning gas station while calling for help in a small Redemption Quest because she Must Make Amends. | |
