!!Tropes featured in this episode:
* BuyThemOff: Chase Matheson sends his lawyer to bribe Althea from speaking out about his rape, warning her that if she refuses the offer, Dennis' family will go down with Matheson should his company falls. Knowing how much the Soong have been contributing to the community, Althea reluctantly agrees, but jacks up the offer by a couple hundred thousand bucks and donates them to fund Ryan's clinic.
* ContrivedCoincidence: It turns out the venue where Jin takes Mei-Li for the date is the Reed Museum gala, where their children are all also in attendance.
* CuttingCorners: The mayor cuts the funding to Ryan's clinic, threatening them to close by the end of the month.
* DarkSecret: Zhilan claims that Pei-Ling murdered their father and ran away to the monastery with the sacred sword to escape her crimes, and she is merely rectifying her mistakes by taking the sword back.
* HostageForMacGuffin: Zhilan subtly threatens to hurt her parents if Nicky refuses to give up the dagger.
* INeedToGoIronMyDog: Henry gives a very unconvincing reason to get away from Jin and Mei-Li.
* ObliviousGuiltSlinging: Althea is discouraged from reporting the rape upon hearing from Dennis how much the Soong have done for the community.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Randall is only interested to sell looted artifacts he obtains to the highest bidders.
* ShaggyDogStory: Nicky and Henry successfully retrieve the dagger, only for Zhilan to appear and take it away by threatening Nicky's family.
* YouAreNotAlone: Henry invites Althea and Ryan to help him and Nicky break into the museum when the latter decides to go it alone.
