** Reese tells Shaw that a "friend" once told him that in their line of work, they walk in the dark. He then adds that it doesn't mean they have to walk alone.
** Also Monica remarks that she has a job offer from IFT, the company where Finch was working as a low level clerk in "Ghosts"--and which he and Nathan Ingram owned.
** Like Christopher Zambrano in "Bury the Lede," Beecher looked to be one of the bad guys, and we only learned otherwise after he was murdered.
** As in "Get Carter", a detective is set up to be murdered through one of their informants.

* PetTheDog: A literal example where Shaw pets Bear just as she leaves the library.

to:

* PetTheDog: A literal example where Shaw pets Bear just as she leaves the library. Another example in that Finch apparently casually hacked the CIA, faked an employee profile, and leaked documents about Cole's death so that his reputation would be cleared, if posthumously.



* SecretTestOfCharacter: Subverted. Shaw assumes that Finch giving her a number to call if she wants a job meant he wanted her to find him. [[StatingTheSimpleSolution Finch figured she'd just call the number.]]
