Comedic surveying responses
Go to the Local Cluster and proceed to survey Uranus. Instead of the usual "Probe Launched," the voice will instead make Uranus jokes such as "Probing Uranus" or "Really Commander?"
Elevators reference
Travel with Tali and Garrus, the recurring party members. Eventually they will have a conversation about the elevators. Garrus will fondly remember the interesting conservations they had about Quarrians. Tali gets very upset about to the point of threatening Garrus with her shotgun to stop.
