* FakeNationality: As pointed out on the main page, Dichen Lachman is ethnically Tibetan, born in Nepal, and raised in Australia. Come to think of it, Tani doesn't look much like her island native family either.

* FakeNationality: Ngaujah is American, with family from Sierra Leone; Serrat is said to be from Liberia. [[note]]Interestingly, Sierra Leone and Liberia both have similar national origins as havens for freed slaves; Liberia was founded by Americans, while Sierra Leone was founded by British subjects, mostly from the Caribbean. But that's more an interesting coincidence than anything else.[[/note]]

The trope may be defied later on now that Christine is talking to the media in a more cooperative fashion (and has gained Kylie Sinclair as an ally on the inside).
