* DesignatedVillain: Stan Olber, chairman of the MTA. He's made out to be the bad guy due to the fact he proceeds with the subway trains remaining on schedule despite the warnings from both Roark and Amy that something suspicious is brewing but he was in his right to keep the trains on schedule and also because MTA doesn't answer to the City of Los Angeles. Still, he redeems himself admirably later on, showing his much more heroic colors as he leads a rescue team into the tunnel to get to a stricken train, then sacrifices himself to save someone else.

* HarsherInHindsight: The conflict between Jasper and Kevin. The former is clearly supposed to be a racist cop, and he comes across as one, and is consistently shown antagonizing Kevin. They end up burying the hatchet a bit when Jasper asks fire engines to help out Kevin's neighborhood. This is quite sweet and is clearly a reference to the then-contemporary issue with Rodney King, and put a hopeful spin on police-civilian relations, but real life would go in this direction as seen in the 2020s with the increasing volatility and exposure of police brutality against minorities, especially in the wake of the deaths of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, and Amir Locke.
** In fact, all of what has happened in the climate of attitudes towards police can make Jasper and Kevin's conflict seem and look much more like a simple personal dispute between two individuals.
