The Gilroy 

A highly concentrated pheromone usually found in cologne or perfume, when applied to the nape of the neck, even in minuscule amounts, the scent will cause the opposite sex to become incredibly aroused with sexual passion and desire.
In Ocean's Thirteen, The Gilroy is when Matt Damon's character, Linus Caldwell (posing as Lenny Pepperidge in disguise), sets up Ellen Barkin's character, Abigail Sponder for seduction; and consequently ends up stealing the diamonds.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
