* ADayInTheLimeLight: As the title suggests, Kimberly is the central character of this episode as she and the Essex workers go on strike because they have not been given a pay raise, nor treated with respect, for decades. Bela, Leighton and Whitney spend most of the time in the background.


Added DiffLines:

* BigDamnKiss: [[spoiler:At the end of the episode, Whitney and Andrew.]]
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Kimberly gave Senator Chase a quote that came from a person who owned slaves, unintentionally causing her to get attacked on social media for using it. If Kimberly had checked who the person was, this scandal would've been avoided. Still, she convinces the Senator to give her speech on behalf of the food workers.
* {{Fanboy}}: Andrew is revealed to be a huge admirer of Senator Chase.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Hypocrite}}: Kimberly reasonably advises to come clean to Eric about her cheating with Dan O'Connell, emphasizing on how important honesty no matter how hurtful it is. [[spoiler:However, by the season finale, she lies to Whitney's face about kissing Canaan when asked about it.]]
