* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: While Nussbaumer's death was an accident, Trish eventually completely loses herself and beats Jace Montero to death deliberately. The trope is further empathized by Erik getting a headache as Trish walks away to kill the next evil person.

* OhCrap: Subverted with Sallinger. He was expecting Jessica. Instead he got Trish. Instead of fear, he just chides himself that he should have connected the dots earlier.
--> '''Sallinger:''' Oh... oh, I should have known. You didn't need the light.

* {{Deconstruction}}: Of the DetectEvil trope. When Nussbaumer dies, Trish reacts with appropriate horror - but Erik ''laughs'', because he can feel a piece of evil leaving the world. Being able to objectively tell who is evil (by way of physical agony) can't help but cause a bit of BlackAndWhiteInsanity.

* KnightTemplar: Trish fully devolves into this. Notably, when Erik tells her that Nussbaumer killed drug dealers, she says that it's ok because they were bad people. When he elaborates that they were children who had nothing in life, she immidiately flips to storming off to confront him.

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In the flashback scenes, Dorothy tells to Trish that she deserves to be more than a sidekick in someone else's show. Season 3 puts a lot more CharacterFocus on Trish, effectively elevating her to co-star status.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Flashback}}: To Trish's childhood, more specifically to her getting a role on the insistence of her (then pretty abusive) mother.
* FreudianExcuse: The basics of Trish's philosophy is her mother basically indoctrinating her that talent is a gift that one is obligated to put to full use. As a child, she was forced to be the family's breadwinner. As an adult, she sees it as her duty to fight "bad people".

* EngineeredPublicConfession: Trish and Erik try to arrange one for Nussbaumer.
