*{{Alpha Bitch}}: Sally is initially this, only to move on to being a {{Lovable Alpha Bitch}}. Likewise, despite Sally appearing to be the leader of her {{Girl Posse}}, Scarlet easily seems to be the most spiteful out of all of them, being very hostile and unpleasant to Frankie at Sally's New Years Eve party, whereas Georgia has {{Took a Level in Kindness}}, whereas while Marnie is still hostile towards Frankie she at least is a more sympathetic character with a somewhat {{Freudian Excuse}}.
