The harassment becomes so bad, Hunt nearly gives up her dream of becoming a Ranger, but Walker is able to convince her otherwise.



* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Bobbie and Russell have a one-on-one duel after he invades her house, ties up her mother and claims he killed Angela. He attempts to stab Bobbie with his knife, but [[HoistByHisOwnPetard she turns the knife against him]] and he is stabbed to death.]]
* BigBadEnsemble: Russell Stafford and Grady Lomax.
* BoundAndGagged: When Bobbie returns home after busting Lomax, she finds that the power is out and her mother is tied up.
* TheCavalryArrivesLate: After the Lomax bust, Walker drops Bobbie off at home, but as he leaves, he notices Russell’s car parked outside her house and hurries back to help her, [[spoiler:but Bobbie was easily able to dispatch him with all the martial arts techniques she learned from him, and when she thinks that Russell killed Angela and she starts grieving, Walker found her hiding in her bedroom closet during the whole ordeal.]]
* CutPhoneLines: When Bobbie returns home after the Lomax bust, she find her mother tied up, and not only are the phone lines in the house dead, but the power has been cut!
* DomesticAbuse: This occurs on some occasions in this show. Bobbie was a victim of this at the hands of Russell. Since his Private Investigation business went out of business, Stafford started doing cocaine and drinking alcohol, and then started abusing Bobbie and Angela and taking it out on them. After Stafford was sentenced to six years in prison, Bobbie had since divorced him, changed her married name back to her maiden name and gained full custody of Angela.
* ExtremelyProtectiveChild: Along with being MamaBear to Angela, Bobbie is this to her mother, Millie Hunt.
* JustGotOutOfJail: As if the DomesticAbuse towards Angela and Bobbie wasn’t enough, Stafford killed a man outside of a bar one day by beating him to death and was sentenced to six years in prison.
* MamaBear: Bobbie is this to Angela. She also qualifies as an ExtremelyProtectiveChild towards her mother, Millie Hunt.
* NotNowWereTooBusyCryingOverYou: [[spoiler:After killing Russell, Bobbie starts to grieve for Angela when she thinks he killed her, but Walker found Angela hiding in her bedroom closet.]]
