* WrongGenreSavvy: Despite being in the know, Control appears to behave like she's in a [[PostNineElevenTerrorismMovie Post 9/11]] SpyFiction drama (of the "dirty beer" sub-type) rather than a science fiction show although she does seem to begin catching on in the end.

* HeelFaceDoorSlam: A ZigZaggedTrope and ''self-inflicted'' version. No matter the events of the day, the way that facts don't seem to add up correctly or the amount of [[BreakingSpeech Breaking Speeches]] she is subjected to, Control still goes after Yasin as if he was a terrorist (and explicitly calls him and talks about him in those terms), blows him away with little hesitation and seems to decide to work nicer with Samaritan. On the other hand, she then goes on to check the spot where Shaw was shot and finds something is amiss...
** Actually averted when one thinks about it. She killed him to hide the fact she was starting to question Decima and Samaritan intentions and that they were just using her to clean up assets that [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlived their usefullness]]. As after going about her day as if nothing has changed and is acting more compliant to them, she is starting her own investigation.
