* ForcedEuthanasia: ZigZagged. When Elizabeth is revealed to be in a coma rather than actually dead, her spirit and David work to reunite her with her body before her sister takes her off of life support. Subverted since Elizabeth had signed forms prior to her accident not to take extraordinary measures to save her life, so her sister believes she's following Elizabeth's wishes by considering pulling the plug. Double subverted since Elizabeth currently ''doesn't'' want to be taken off life support because there ''is'' still a chance to save her life, but can't tell her sister that since she's a spirit that only David can hear.

** David doesn't appear to do [[OneHourWorkWeek much of anything]] but drink, yet he can afford (even as a sublet) a large one-bedroom with an astounding view, in San Francisco.
** Then again he used to design gardens for the rich so maybe he just had a lot of savings. What's more surprising is that medical intern Elizabeth could afford it.
