* BriarPatching: Miles goes to recruit Gene, but acts like he doesn't want his help. Gene practically jumps at the job, so Miles allows it. After a moment, Gene realizes he's been played and compliments Miles.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Cormac beats Thomas the cellist to death simply for suggesting that Charon could broaden his horizons.
* GolfClubbing: Cormac uses a golf club to bash Thomas's head in, then goes ballistic on his corpse and cello.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Winston describes Cormac as only caring about himself, and only helping others to the extent it helps him. He demonstrates this by telling Charon the story of how he met Cormac. Cormac complained about his ragged shoes and sent a burly guy to his class to deliver a new pair, as Cormac only cared about how Winston's appearance reflected on him. When Charon returns to the Continental and finds Thomas dead, Cormac finally agrees to bring Charon's father to America, but only because his father is a violinist and Cormac perceives that he would be more loyal as a family member.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: Gene is introduced sniping a wanted pedophile.
* PragmaticVillainy: The Adjudicator is informed that Cormac violated the TruceZone by killing Thomas and on those grounds could have him eliminated at once, but she orders it be kept secret because she believes there's a better chance the coin press will emerge by allowing the small fish to eat each other rather than clean house.
