* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Played with. She's blonde and Joey notes that Sammy would ''like'' to see herself as "not as bad as the others" because she's only a hacker, not enacting any of the stealing and violence, and yet she's still a willing accomplice to all of it, including the kidnapping of a child. However, she ''is'' one of the nicer teammates. Even though Dean's personality made him something of an AbhorrentAdmirer to her, Sammy still calls out Peter's insensitivity when he says that they'll get a bigger share thanks to Dean's death.

* PhoneaholicTeenager: She's glued to her phone and Dean identifies her as a teenager -- though it's worth noting that he's not that great at reading people, so he could be a bit off about her age. Either way, Sammy is clearly one of the youngest members and addicted to social media.

* InformedAttribute: Joey describes him as "probably a sociopath," but he doesn't show any sociopath traits or qualities associated with antisocial personality disorder. He's not manipulative nor does he seem to be very capable of manipulation, due to his [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter poor reading of other people]]. His efforts to connect with other people, while abysmal, come off as quite earnest (and again, genuinely awkward, not at all charming). As far as literal criminals go, he's far from aggressive.
