* FromBadToWorse: Fargo explains to Carter why the uncontrolled smart dust is a problem.
-->'''Carter:''' Random mirrors everywhere isn't the worst thing in the world. We'll deal.\\
'''Fargo:''' No. Loose Smart Dust could potentially disrupt every band on the electromagnetic spectrum. Phones, computers...\\
'''Carter:''' We'll deal.\\
'''Fargo:''' ...The neural impulses in our brains. Abstract thought, logic, the higher functions will go first. And then it'll hit the other stuff.\\

* ImproperlyParanoid: Grace's arrest has spread paranoia throughout the town. Carter is first seen humouring a man telling him about his neighbour's suspicious activities. Allison is less inclined to beat around the bush.

'''Allison:''' Of course he is.\\
'''Dr. Selikoff:''' Oh. So you're defending him?\\
'''Allison:''' Well, yes. It isn't suspicious behavior if you're an astronomer.

to:

* {{Cliffhanger}}: Zane is arrested, Henry and Jo have been replaced with bio-printed doppelgangers, Carter has been overpowered by Holly and is presumably about to be replaced as well. We still don't know who programmed Holly or what their goal is.

* LaymansTerms:
** The smart dust is explained to Carter as a sun visor to counter global warming.
** Carter likens the hacked smart dust to an incident involving a neighbour's garage door opener set to the same frequency as his, which gives him the idea of a "clicker" to track down the source of the interference.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** First Fargo, then Allison become concerned about Holly when she first decides to study the bioprinter (she's an astrophysicist), then her behaviour becomes manipulative and mean.
** Andy shoots down Carter's "clicker" idea, claiming it would break the second law of thermodynamics among others. When Carter mentions it to Fargo, he latches excitedly onto the idea, dismissing Andy assertions as needing a diagnostic. If only they'd looked harder at that thread...

-->'''Grace:''' You made me a better person, if you're looking to take responsibility for something, take responsibility for that.
