* BrokenBird: Willy had to wait around in his car for several ''years'', waiting for Jasper to make his move and just watch him screw around with his little family. To make matters worse, he only had one song to listen to the entire time and that was Lou Bega's ''Mambo Number 5'', which drove him to complete madness.
* CardCarryingVillain: He's proud of being a criminal and is angry that Jasper taking so long made him have to take up an honest living as an Uber driver in order to provide himself.

* GoMadFromTheIsolation: Spending 19 months in a car with only one song to listen to has not done wonders for his sanity. Granted, he was likely never sane if he chose to wait for Jasper all that time.


Added DiffLines:

* OnlySaneByComparison: He is a CardCarryingVillain who waited for 19 months for Jasper to make a move and kept the car running the entire time. He is also one of the few people to understand how weird the entire situation actually is, with his flashback showing him reacting incredulously to some of the episodes and Jasper's overall "playing house" with the hostages.

* StockholmSyndrome: Charlene never complains about being held hostage and of all the hostages, she seems to be the most dedicated and at peace with the fact that she's being held prisoner in the bank forever. She has even fallen in love with Jasper and now treats him like her real husband, even though it's likely she had a real husband back at home.

Added DiffLines:

* AxCrazy: When we see Willy, he's screaming and raving about Jasper taking 19 months to finish robbing the bank. After he shoos his partner in crime outside, he plans on shooting the hostages [[ForTheEvulz despite gaining nothing from it]], and specifically [[WouldHurtAChild aims at Yong Sun first]].


Added DiffLines:

* EvilCounterpart: To the Chief from "''Canine Caper''", both of whom are introduced shouting at the ones that work under them. However, while the Chief is upset with Chief Negotiator Ned [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold for not being able to recover a single hostage and being indirectly responsible for the death of Santa Claus]], Willy is upset that [[spoiler: [[DoWrongRight Jasper has taken so long in making his get away]] and his partners [[LimaSyndrome attachment toward his hostages]]]].


Added DiffLines:

* KnightOfCerebus: Somehow both downplayed and played straight. He's still a LaughablyEvil, LargeHam CardCarryingVillain courtesy of Zach Hadel, but he is very clearly deranged, evident of his [[spoiler: attempted murder of Yong Sun]], and his presence [[spoiler:and death]] causes enough drama within the series to make it end on more of a [[BitterSweetEnding bitter sweet]] [[DownerEnding at best]] ending [[spoiler: with [[KilledOffForReal Jasper getting shot in the head]]]].

Precisions What the Hell Hero


* WhatTheHellHero: By "The Canine Caper", to perfect his dog disguise, he repeatedly licks Yong Sun's face. The problem is that he is a grown up man and a law representative licking up a 8-years-old's face. That's the only time throughout the entire show where his fellow policemen Korey Coleman and Martin Thomas are shocked by what they are watching. Downplayed, as Ned has (hopefully) no twisted feelings or intentions towards Yong Sun.

* PoliceAreUseless: A complete failure as a hostage negotiator, being way too nice and generous with Jasper. Ned has consistently failed to get as little as a single hostage from him and has even wound up giving Jasper more hostages than when he started, including ''Chris Pine'' somehow.
