** The middle school principal from "Bitten While Defending A Friend" is a firm believer of AllCrimesAreEqual, willing to give Rebecca the exact same amount of demerits as [[TheBully Millie]], who bit Rebecca on the arm and nearly broke her skin, just because she roughhoused Millie in trying to get Greg's stolen [[SecretDiary journal]] back, and only gives Millie more demerits just because it was her second time seeing him.

--->'''Vice Principal:''' '''''HEY!''' That shirt is prohibited; go to the office! '''YOU!''' Take out that nose ring; you know they're not allowed!'' Oh, hello, Rebecca, you have a good day, sweetheart. '''''HEY!''' I see that logo on your pants, mister!''

-->-- '''Introduction catchphrase'''

* AllCrimesAreEqual: The Principal from "Bitten While Defending A Friend" believes this. Rebecca got into a fight with a bully who snatched a friend's journal and was reading it out loud, and the bully went so far as to bite her. The Principal would give them both five demerits, but the only reason why the bully got ten instead is because this was a repeat offense.

!!Tropes about Rebecca

* PranksterParent: After Rebecca's running away from home prank on her mom fell flat because her mom [[BatmanGambit acted coy about it]], causing her and Rachel to come out of hiding, her mom suddenly got the idea to do the prank again, but this time, on Rebecca's dad. Lo and behold, the prank was a rousing success due to her mom putting on her most convincing acting performance.

* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Rebecca's High School Drama Teacher [[SadistTeacher Medusa]] was ultimately this. She had a tight grip on the theatre department and was [[MoodSwinger prone to mood swings]], either being decent & friendly or irritable & verbally abusive. And she frequently had favorite students while treating everyone else ([[TeachersUnfavoriteStudent Becca included]]) poorly. But she always gave her A's for being a good student, and even gave her a hug after a great performance, which made Rebecca believe that one day she'll get her approval if she sticks it out. However, during senior year when Rebecca was auditioning for the lead role in a play that she was the most qualified for in the entire class [[note]] Specifically, it was for female lead-character [[CoolOldLady "Dotty"]] from ''Theatre/NoisesOff''. Rebecca was the oldest in the class, had senior-student casting priority, had the right physique for the role, and could even do the necessary accent perfectly [[/note]], Medusa ''still did not cast her for ANY role for the play'' out of sheer contempt for her, even [[HiddenDisdainReveal telling other students such]]. Unsurprisingly, this was the final straw for Rebecca, who quit her class then & there.

* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Subverted then played straight. In "My Terrible Mouth Accident", she talks about how when she was a toddler, she fell face first on hardwood floors when playing on a porch swing. She screamed loudly, alerting her father and taking her to the hospital because her mouth was bleeding. But then during the car ride, little Becca started gleefully singing "Old [=MacDonald=] Had a Farm". But the father wasn't in the mood for a musical number.

-->'''Rebecca:''' My dad accidentally pulled my arm out of my socket when I was six, I got hit in the face with a softball when I was in middle school and had a shiner for a week, I slipped in water in high school and tore a cartilage in my knee, a girl in theater dropped a heavy set piece on my foot and I had to do the rest of the shows with one shoe on, I broke my toe banging it on a platform trying to get off stage... ''[[{{Beat}} (beat)]]'' [[LampshadeHanging Y'know, maybe I'm more accident prone than I thought]]. I wonder how much football helmets cost.

** In "I Got Stuck On A Roof", Rebecca's father gives her one [[PoorlyTimedConfession when her friend shouted out that they did something they didn't want her parents to know (getting stuck on the roof)]].
* DirtyOldMan: In an Alice in Wonderland play involving a wardrobe mishap, an old man in the audience mentions that his favorite part of the play was when "we got to see the girl's heinie".

* EarnYourHappyEnding: After constant abuse from her high school Theater teacher Medusa, Rebecca stood up for herself and dropped out of Medusa's classes. Following this, Rebecca was much happier and more confident, to the point where her choir teacher even noticed and gave her the award for "Most Improved Senior". Rebecca did not even have to drop out of doing theater since she joined a community theater who actually cast her in a leading role of a musical, which won her the best actress award for the show season at said theater.
* EvilIsPetty: Becca clearly displayed skill and talent when she auditioned for the part of Dottie in ''Noises Off''. Yet, Medusa didn't even give Becca a part on the petty excuse that she's "not one of the group". This [[HoistByHisOwnPetard comes back to bite her]] when some tech theater girls pass on her words to Becca, who works up the courage to leave Medusa's classes and [[EarnYourHappyEnding move on to better things]].

** [[SadistTeacher Medusa]] was an extremely abusive and vindictive teacher with a totalitarian grip on the theater department of the high school Rebecca went to. She treated almost all of her students like trash except for a [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections select few students that were her personal favorites and prioritized above school rules]]. However, her behavior caught up to her when she got [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy smashed on an overnight competition with students]] and ended up locking the boys out of their dormitory overnight. She was promptly fired.

'''Rebecca's father:''' ''(DeathGlare combined with TranquilFury voice)'' Don't tell me ''what'', dearest daughter of mine?

* SadistTeacher: Her high school theater teacher Medusa and her college communication professor E (who Rebecca comments made Medusa look like a saint in comparison, since at least Medusa never ''killed'' anybody).

-->'''Kay:''' Aaaand remember! Do not tell him ANYTHING!\\

'''Rebecca's father:''' ''(DeathGlare combined with TranquilFury voice)'' Don't tell me what, dearest daughter of mine?

* PunctuatedPounding: In "Backyard Stories", when Rebecca describes how Jocco tried to swing from a tree "like he was freakin' Tarzan", she can be heard clapping between words.
