* BolivianArmyCliffhanger: The Legends getting overwhelmed by zombies while Charlie decides to save them by rejoining her sisters.



* {{Foreshadowing}}: There are two moments that foreshadow that the Gideon Gary interacts with is not Gideon. The first is when Gideon inexplicably starts hopping like a rabbit to distract Atropos. The second is Gideon acting affectionate to Gary when it's been shown that Gideon, like the Legends, doesn't respect Gary.

** Gary proves to be quite the underdog going up against the all-powerful Moirai, but he does manage to grab the rings and hide them from them, and far more importantly convinces Astra to give up her alliance with the Moirai to go back to the mission of working with the Legends to save her mother. Unfortunately, Atropos kills her before they can use the Time courier to get to the Legends, followed by killing Gary himself.
** The Legends make it to the pub and the old Time Bureau hideout, only for the Time courier there still needing to charge. This one is a somewhat [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] version of this trope, as it's somewhat obvious the show will not squander the opportunity to have a ShoutOut to ''Film/ShaunOfTheDead''.
