* InsufferableImbecile: Almost every suspect you encounter (except for [[OnlyFriend Zack]]) saw Becky as this. She stole Roger's pet octopus, sabotaged Lenny's performances to make people stop giving him money, purposefully angered Evan by telling her she was not a real mermaid then made her a laughing stock by posting memes of her, and meddled onto Derek's drug business. When you talk to Zack, he tells you everyone hated her.

!!Tropes:

*DyingAlone: According to Zack, this is what hurts him the most about Becky's demise.
-->'''Zack:''' Sadly, I don't think anybody will miss her. Ugh, I don't wanna die like that: alone and unloved.
*HairTriggerTemper: This is how Russel manages to identify the "angry mermaid" Becky drew on her receipt.
-->'''Russell:''' Everything you do is a reflection of your inner self. In the drawing, the mermaid is threatening your victim. This proves that she has a short temper.
-->So when looking through the employee records, I found one waitress who kept getting into fights. A certain Eva Sanchez. She's your angry mermaid, <Player's Name>!
*HeKnowsTooMuch: Derek killed Becky because she couldn't keep her nose out of anyone's affairs. When she photographed him selling drugs, this ended up being the breaking point for him.
-->'''Derek:''' I make my money because people here want to have a good time. They want drugs. This is what makes Ocean Shore.
-->And that's why people know to turn a blind eye... But not Becky! [[CameraFiend She was always taking pictures...]] of EVERYTHING!
-->So that girl had to go: she didn't belong here!
*InsufferableImbecile: Almost every suspect you encounter (except for [[OnlyFriend Zack]]) saw Becky as this.

**When investigating the monkey attack on Zack during the Additional Investigation, Frank says this:
--->'''Frank:''' Terrorized by a monkey... Aaah, good times.
*OddFriendship: Popular life guard Zack Taylor with geeky and lonely CameraFiend Becky Walden, who was also her OnlyFriend.
-->'''Frank:''' We have trouble believing a popular guy like you would be friends with a geeky girl like her.
-->'''Zack:''' She was always alone and I felt sorry for her, because everyone hated her. So I tried to cheer her up a bit: it's what I'm good at.
*PetTheDog: In the Additional Investigation, Frank warns Eva about getting involved with Magnus, an adult film company, because he fears for his safety.
-->'''Frank:''' Well, as long as you've thought this through... But be careful, okay? We'd hate to see a girl like you come to harm.
*{{Pun}}: After examining Becky's body, Roxie says doing it was way "[[KillItWithIce cooler]]" than the party she was attending before.

*SonicStunner: Parts of Becky's body fell apart after being frozen due to the killer blasting loud electronic music during the murder, sending sound waves through her.
*TitleDrop:
-->'''Frank:''' You're right, we should try and recap this headache of a case, <Player's Name>: we've got one ice queen and five suspects who hated her guts.
