** Subdued example: Callahan in the first film is tough on the recruits and seems just as hard on them as Harris. However while Harris is ''trying'' to make them fail or quit, Callahan is giving her best effort to train them. She's genuinely pleased when they begin to show competence, and in one scene scowls in disgust when Harris openly dismisses their progress. Notably, during Hightower's TranquilFury moment, while Harris is desperately screaming at him to stop, Callahan makes no effort at all to stop him, and even slightly moves out of his way to let him go to town with the jerk that threw slurs at Hooks. It kind of makes sense why she ends up fraternizing with these cadets later on as if she was one of them to begin with.

The characters Thaddeus Harris and Mauser are also almost identical, with Mauser's YesMan Proctor shifting to kiss ass for Harris between movies without explanation, and it works perfectly.
