Luther Braxton (No. 21) provides examples of:
- 555: Reddington is "captured" by the military. He tells them to call a 555 number with a 202 area code, presumably the director of the CIA.
- Cardboard Prison: So much so that the people who designed the prison must have been firmly holding onto the idiot ball. There would not have been an electric light in Braxton's cell, so he would not have had access to wiring and an electric current. Toilet paper in prisons does not come wrapped around a cardboard tube, precisely because that cardboard tube can be put to a lot of other uses by a canny inmate. The guard would not have opened the door to give Braxton his food tray, there's a slot in the door where the food tray is passed to the inmate. The guards would not have blindly charged into Braxton's cell so that he could beat them up and take their weapons, they would have stood in the door and blasted him with a high-pressure fire hose until he was half-drowned.
- Genius Bruiser: As well as being physically imposing, Braxton was able to engineer his and his crew's capture to a maximum security facility in order to escape and take it over.
- MacGyvering: He rigged his own cell to electrocute any guard that stuck the key into the lock of his door, used a sheet as a makeshift gas-mask for when they threw in teargas to subdue him, used sparks caused by his overhead light to set another guard on fire, and then used those guards' own guns to take out the rest.
