* EtTuBrute: Towards "Danielle" after learning she's an FBI agent. Notably, despite feeling massively betrayed, Adriana is still upset when it becomes apparent a different agent will be her handler.

* DudeMagnet: Due to her extremely good looks and somewhat kind personality, she draws a ton of male attention. Besides Christopher who genuinely loves her despite his abusive behavior, Artie is madly in love with her as well. She gets her share of sexual tension with Tony as well in later seasons and the FBI agents spying on her describe her as the most wonderful being in existence.

Not in the least, and the one-episode cat is never shown to have anything to do with Adriana. It was thrown in to give the audience something to discuss.


* AnimalMotifs: She is associated with deer and, after [[spoiler: her death]], cats, as a cat stares fixedly at Christopher at one point.

* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Twice discussed by FBI agents. First case is her relationship with Chris, which they deride since he's a violent sociopath, abuser, and drug addict. Even Tony tells Chris directly that Adriana is way out of his league, and he's incredibly lucky to have snagged her. Secondly, when she expresses attraction towards Tony, they are incredulous over a woman as beautiful as her lusting after someone that looks like "[[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones Barney Rubble]]".
-->'''Robyn:''' ''(mockingly)'' Well, we really don't know him. ''He listens.''



* RememberTheNewGuy: The very first episode she appears in, she's already pregnant with Chris' child and they get married. When they met and how long they've been dating is not mentioned, but everyone treats her as a familiar character.



* SatelliteLoveInterest: Never really evolves beyond just being Christopher's girlfriend and wife.

* SatelliteLoveInterest: Never really evolves beyond just being Christopher's girlfriend and wife.wife, and, as opposed to Adriana, has no focus given to her.


Added DiffLines:

* ShotgunWedding: They get married right after she tells Christopher that she's pregnant. Chris later regrets the impulsive decision because he finds he doesn't really love Kelli at all (notably, it was Chris' entire decision, as Kelli was willing to go to an abortion clinic before Chris stated he wanted to keep the baby).
