* {{Averted}} with Rebecca humbly confessing her role in Isabella's scheme to break up Kate and Robin, which was clearly ''meant'' to be a redemptive moment for the character, but only ended up making her ''more'' loathed by viewers for giving Kate a reason to return to the main storyline instead of leaving Nottingham forever.

** The cringe-worthy CatFight. It's not particularly well choreographed, the actresses make all kinds of silly gasps and grunts as they lunge at each other, and it's just plain embarrassing to watch two grown women fight like children over a man who clearly doesn't care about ''either'' of them.

* {{Narm}}: Archer kills one of the guards by throwing a ninja star into his back -- which wouldn't be ''too'' bad except it's done in SlowMotion and the star itself barely looks big enough to be used as a bottle opener, let alone kill an armored man.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Kate spontaneously invents CPR and successfully administers it to Robin.

* TrappedByMountainLions: The entire subplot in which Kate is tricked into believing that Robin is still romantically attached to Isabella ultimately amounts to nothing. Its only narrative purpose is to justify the CatFight, but physically overpowering Isabella isn't anything the other outlaws weren't capable of doing themselves.

* IdiotPlot: Isabella wants to break up Robin and Kate, and does so by ordering Kate's mother to plant one half of Isabella's locket on Robin, and give the other half to Kate, the logic being that Kate will find Robin's half of the locket and believe that Isabella and Robin are still an item. This entire plan is contingent on the assumption that Kate won't ask a simple, obvious question: how on earth did her mother come to be in possession of Isabella's locket? Heck, Rebecca even ''tells'' Kate that she got it from Isabella, and Kate doesn't bother to ask any follow-up questions (such as how, when or why) that would clue her into the transparent fact that it's all a set-up.

* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: Tuck's peaceful protest is widely considered as something the character should have been doing all along, rather than spending much of the series being DemotedToExtra after the first few episodes.
