* MagnificentBastard: [[PunchClockVillain Albert Laurent]] is a very intelligent and skilled mercenary hired by the revolting Dr. Bernard Merrick to retrieve escaped clones Lincoln Six-Echo and Jordan Two-Delta. Suspecting and realizing Merrick uses the clones to harvest organs, Laurent only takes the job for both [[OnlyInItForTheMoney the pay]] and being a ConsummateProfessional. Tracking Lincoln and Jordan through tech implanted on Lincoln and then to LA [[ScarilyCompetentTracker through use of a credit card]], Laurent and his people ambush a police convoy when the two are arrested and during an extended chase, death and destruction is chaotically caused. Killing sponsor Tom Lincoln thinking he's Lincoln, Laurent also recaptures Jordan so that her dying sponsor Sarah Jordan can be saved—only for Merrick to say she can't be saved and plan to harvest Jordan anyway. Having as a child suffered the same treatment the clones are enduring, Laurent [[HeelFaceTurn defies Merrick]] by helping Lincoln and Jordan to set all the clones free and make sure Merrick's business is finally brought down in the end.

* MoralEventHorizon: Dr. Merrick's actions are harsh and heartless, but could be seen as necessary extremes to contain a volatile situation which is Lincoln and Jordan escaping. Then he [[spoiler:personally kills Jones, and orders the deaths of dozens of clones because their GeneticMemory is starting to develop]]. Even worse, as this won't stop the same problem from happening again, it's likely he'll just go for the same solution when it does.
