Added DiffLines:

* DrivesLikeCrazy: Artie. Claudia marvels at how he got his license. Also serves as an inversion as it's usually the spunky younger character that drives like crazy and the conservative cautious older character that freaks out.


Added DiffLines:

* [[spoiler:EvilAllAlong: Although she's pretty much an AntiVillain and eventually goes back to being a good guy, culminating in a HeroicSacrifice]].

* AgentMulder: Far more relaxed than the namesake.

to:

* AgentMulder: To Myka's Agent Scully. Far more relaxed than the namesake.namesake.
** Reversed in "Past Imperfect," where Myka is the emotional, impulsive one while Pete is the methodical, logical one. Justified, as in this case Myka is investigating something personal, and Pete realizes he needs to pick up the slack.
---> '''Myka:''' Pete, what are you doing?\\
'''Pete:''' Well, I'm thinking like Myka. When something doesn't make sense, Myka tries to make sense of it. But not right now, because she's too emotional, which is where Pete usually is, emotional. Then I thought hey, while you're being me, I may as well be you.
* TheAlcoholic: Pete is a teetotal alcoholic, having been sober for several years at the beginning of the series. Tellingly, he shows clear signs of panic in "Merge With Caution" when Myka and he switch bodies when Myka was inebriated, fearing that this will cause him to suffer a relapse.



* BigBrotherInstinct: Toward Claudia.

to:

* BerserkButton: Pete was clearly pissed off enough to want to kill the photographer with the Man Ray camera after what he did to Myka in the "Age Before Beauty" episode. It's probably safe to say messing with any member of his team will get you on Pete's bad side in short order, but hurting Myka in particular, very bad idea. It doesn't help that he mentions that the effects of this particular artifact (turning beautiful women into dying old ladies) disturbs him more than just about anything else he's seen.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Toward Claudia. Outright stated by him in "The Greatest Gift";
--> '''Pete''': I'm like [[BigBrotherMentor your big brother]], Myka is like [[CoolBigSis your big sister]] and Artie is [[TeamDad so much like your dad it's kinda annoying.]]



* AgentScully: She has a knack for detail.

to:

* AgentScully: To Pete's AgentMulder. She has a knack for detail.



* AmbiguouslyJewish
* BigOlEyebrows

to:

* AmbiguouslyJewish
AmbiguouslyJewish: He isn't shown outright to be Jewish until the Christmas episode in the second season.
* BigOlEyebrowsBigOlEyebrows: Artie is remembered by Jinks as "the guy with the eyebrows". They are promptly exaggerated in Fargo's VR game in "Don't Hate the Player".
--> '''Pete''': Artie's gonna be deeply pissed.
** In "Insatiable," when Artie can't get the boy to open up to him, Pete remarks that "maybe it's the eyebrows."
* {{Chessmaster}}: Of a literal sort. Artie has a chessboard he keeps outside his office and plays against himself for months between moves. Given how Claudia ignores his objections and makes a move half-way through the episode, and then at the end makes the first move of a reset board, she's also on-board for having this be her role.



* TeamDad: Pete pretty much out-right refered to him as much.

to:

* TeamDad: Pete pretty much out-right refered to him as much.
much. Artie outright tries to be a father figure for Claudia in "Age Before Beauty", so he's cemented his place as TeamDad.



* ButtMonkey: In season one.
* TheCastShowoff: In "Insatiable", Allison Scagliotti shows herself to be a reasonably talented guitarist and singer. Subverted though, as the sequence in question is relatively unobtrusive and does not in anyway negatively affect the storyline (It's specifically stated to occur during Claudia's down time.)



* AffablyEvil
* AntiVillain

to:

* AffablyEvil
AffablyEvil: So much so that, past her introduction episode in season 2, you'd have a hard time believing she ever was evil until the finale.
* AntiVillainAntiVillain: For most of her screentime. [[spoiler: She eventually pulls a HeelFaceTurn and a HeroicSacrifice]].
* TheAtoner: For season three.


Added DiffLines:

* BiTheWay: The (female) Warehouse version of H.G. Wells. Her nonchalant coming out in "Buried" doubles as a Crowning Moment of Funny.
---> "I know a thing or two about the opposite sex. Many of my lovers were men."
* {{Chessmaster}}: H.G. Wells' mentor Catarunga was a literal sort. The two of them played chess every day for years, and H.G. Wells (who was no slouch in this department herself) didn't win once. [[spoiler: Catarunga designed a lock for backdoor to the Warehouse to be a chess game. The game was set up with player in check, if the player didn't win in 3 moves they were killed. Sykes kidnapped H.G. Wells assuming she could beat the lock, and she still couldn't. She then realized that Catarunga designed it so that the player ''had to cheat'' to win.]]

to:

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Her introduction has her kidnapping Artie to save her brother, who's trapped between dimensions due to his careless use of an artifact. [[spoiler:When Steve dies in season 3, she keeps the metronome that was keeping Marcus alive, intent on using it to bring him back, and won't let anyone stop her.]]






* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:After Artie hits the ResetButton and changes the timeline, Sykes is "cured" by Ghandi's cloth. Now able to see what he has become, Skyes apologizes to the team.]]
