* A sneak peak preview showcases Horde Prime's FauxAffablyEvil and ManipulativeBastard tendencies by [[NoMrBondIExpectYouToDine sharing dinner with Glimmer and Catra]], during which Glimmer is treated to a tasty dish; he then casually remarks that the dish is rare because it came from a realm that no longer exists, causing Glimmer to drop her spoon. He even goes out of his way to compare the realm in question to Etheria, and then immediately after Glimmer declines seconds opts to show her the current status of her homeworld- that being utter chaos, with everything in flames and her friends struggling to survive as Horde Prime's forces conquer it; he does all of this while maintaining a calm and even tone [[LackOfEmpathy and giving no regard for Glimmer's obvious distress]]. The intent is clear; Horde Prime ''wanted'' her to cave and reveal everything she knows about the Heart of Etheria.

** Immediately afterward, when Catra tries to pal up to Prime, he makes it clear that making Glimmer cave has instantly made Catra ''useless'', costing her the only advantage she had. Catra's knack for survival and manipulation is rendered moot within ''days'' of her alliance with Prime.

* In the "Protocol" episode, Kyle, Lonnie and Rogelio fall under a "spore storm", which is akin to an acid rain or a chemical attack. Even with its tame rating, the show doesn't shy away from the horrifying effects - a single spore landning on bare skin causes agony (and poor Kyle catches one ''on his tounge''), they slowly melt through armor, and after the trio are forced to go out into the thick of it, they're all covered in nasty burns. Seing this happen to ''children'', after the previous episodes mostly dealt in AmusingInjuries, is unsettling to say the least.

** The worst part that [[FridgeHorror might not be easily noticed]] is that Double Trouble lumps in Shadow Weaver and Hordak's abusive behavior with Adora and Scorpia's [[MistreatmentInducedBetrayal legitimate grievances with her]], basically implying Catra deserved her ParentalAbuse. That could make Catra ''extremely'' vulnerable to gaslighting if she and Shadow Weaver ever meet again.

* Double Trouble's dissection of Catra's personality comes off as brutal and somewhat even horrifying. They first confront her using the appearance of Adora, just to rile her up, and laughs as Catra reacts with fear and anger. Then, they take it up a notch, transforming into Catra herself and telling her she doesn't really want to rule the Horde and that it's never been a real goal. They start getting really cruel by repeatedly shifting into people Catra has in someway cared about, mentioning all the things people have done to her. Then, they transform into Scorpia to tell her it's all her fault that people leave. It's utterly heartbreaking to watch Catra slowly become more and more despondent, and it's easy to tell that the affectionate body language Double Trouble uses as Adora really gets to her. However, Double Trouble goes even further, and explains that they have betrayed her and everything Catra has ever worked for will be torn down, making it clear that they themselves never cared for her either. Double Trouble finishes off with a cheerful smile, leaving Catra despondent and alone.
** It's fairly unnerving to see Double Trouble come right out and emotionally break Catra after she had appeared to look up to them. The cruelty they display in one scene can only be surpassed by that of Horde Prime, which is fairly high bar. Even Shadow Weaver's abuse doesn't quite reach that level, as Double Trouble reveals the truth in the most brutal way possible and then leaves Catra completely alone with no one. When Glimmer shows up, Catra outright tells her to just do ''[[MercyKill it]]''.

At all other times, he speaks in a soft, affable and sophisticated voice and treats Glimmer and Catra with the utmost kindness and courtesy, even when he nonchalantly threatens to murder the former and her entire planet to cover up Hordak's "failure" and later states his intention to harness the Heart of Etheria's power for his own use.
