* PowerCopying: The Rebirth process lets Mari master any physical skill her body is capable of doing, simply by watching it once.
* RammingAlwaysWorks: Mari does this to the 6th Angel by ramming its core with the American Dream.
* Really700YearsOld: Dum Dum? The same one that fought [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger alongside Steve Rogers back in]] UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. He (and apparently Fury) were given a SuperSerum variant to slow down significantly (if not stop) their aging.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: After her first mission goes bad, Mari calls ComicBook/NickFury out for [[spoiler: disabling the American Dream's weapons when he knows an Angel will attack the Pacific Fleet.]] Fury's response is to give her a scathing one of these.
-->'''Fury''': "You want to know why I [[spoiler: didn't warn you about the Angel, why I ordered your weapons disabled?]] That's simple. Because I know just the kind of person you are; a hyperactive adrenaline junkie who can't be bothered to think before jumping into a situation and making it worse!"
-->'''Mari''': (shocked silent).
-->'''Fury''': "When I [[spoiler: found out about the Angel, I had your weapons pulled]] because I thought that even an idiot like you would be smart enough to back down from a situation like that. But it's obvious that I overestimated your intelligence. You know, when I was ordered to recruit you to spy on NERV, I didn't like it. And when I started getting Dugan's reports on his attempts to get you trained, I liked it a whole lot less. You've been treating this whole thing like a game right from day one. You have no discipline, no respect for authority, and if it weren't for the fact that you were our only chance of getting inside of NERV Central, I'd have thrown you out of here personally."
-->Fury pauses to study Mari's battle suit.
-->'''Fury''': "And hell would have frozen over long before I'd have ever given you that!"
-->'''Mari''': "Wha...?"
-->'''Fury''': "I knew your great-grandfather, girl. I fought alongside of him. And I owe him my life more times than I can even begin to tell you."
-->'''Mari''': "Really. You must be a lot older than you look."
-->'''Fury''': "Which is why I fought like hell when the Council decided that they wanted a new Captain America. That title belongs to just one man, and his name was Steven Rogers. Not any of the wannabes they brought in to try and take his place. And certainly not some arrogant little tramp that we have to put up with just because she happens to be his great-granddaughter."
* ToughActToFollow: InUniverse, [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger the previous]] ComicBook/CaptainAmerica. ComicBook/NickFury uses it as a cornerstone of his TheReasonYouSuckSpeech towards Mari.
* WayPastTheExpirationDate: The M.R.Es that are on the ''American Dream'', on an Omake. Pure SHIELD sore loser JerkAss-ery at its finest.
