* BlatantLies: [[spoiler:When the real Jamie Quinn showed up to the mansion and found Grace outside peeking in through a window, the latter claimed to be one of the guests.

* NeverMyFault: [[spoiler:Grace blames Sarah for Vince’s conviction and eventual death in prison. Charlie backhands her statement and points out that Sarah was just doing her job, and that Vince was a criminal and what happened to him was because of his own choices.

* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Grace’s plan was to simply poison Sarah’s drink and leave quickly. It all went sideways when Fiona drank the poison instead, mistaking Sarah’s glass for hers.

* TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: Fiona is poisoned by wine spiked with fentanyl and is left in a critical condition while Sarah does everything that she can to help her.
