* AGodAmI: The thrill of saving the bus driver twists into this, as he demonstrates by stopping Chimney's heart and then use defibrilation on him ''TWICE''.
* CreepyChild: The beginning of his flashback shows him [[NighmareFuelColoringBook drawing a man beheaded by guillotine]] and rambles to a girl who asks him about the drawing how cool the execution method is.
* HeroismAddict: The exposure he got for being a child hero turns him into this. He administers drugs to stable patients to induce cardiac arrest and then performs resuscitation so that he can get the praise. The reason it goes unnoticed for so long is because 1) The drugs he administers are drugs that do help patients with cardiac arrest (despite the lack of cardiac arrest symptoms and dose detail given on the report) and 2) He moves from firehouses to firehouses to cover his tracks.

* LackOfEmpathy: His response to Claudette's death lacks remorse and regret for not being able to save her, instead saying "I usually save them." This makes Hen suspicious, thinking that Jonah did something to Claudette before her death. She's right.

Gloria reveals that by not hanging up on her following her accident despite Gloria previously harassing her over being fired, Maddie showed her how wrong she was to hang up on people, especially regarding the "dead-end calls", whom Gloria believed that there was nothing that could be done for. She admits that she now knows that there was something she could've done for them: listen to them and be there for them to the end, so that way they wouldn't have had to spend their last moments of life all alone.

A 911 operator that takes Maddie under her wing, when she first arrives.
----
* BeneathTheMask: Gloria puts out a friendly and welcoming front, but underneath that she is a bitter old woman, who hangs up on people calling for help.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Gloria seems to have it all figured out, and even offers Maddie a muffin when they meet. Then we see her slowly begin to reject call after call with rude, insensitive, and even racist remarks.
-->'''Gloria:''' If you were really going to jump, I doubt you'd be calling me.
* BrokenPedestal: She is this to Maddie. Maddie really thought that Gloria was someone to look up to, as she had been in the 911 operator job for years and seemed to have it all figured out, but her true colours are shown when her previous recorded calls are heard and Gloria is heard being rude, insensitive and even racist to people calling for help.
* FiringDay: Is fired in “Awful People” and could be facing jail time for interfering with emergency calls.
* JerkassWoobie: She's awful for hanging up on people, but it's incredibly difficult not to feel ''something'' when she's stuck in her car after getting into an accident and she's practically in tears because she thinks she's going to die. A testament to Christine Estabrook's acting.
* OneShotCharacter: Averted, as she returns later in the season in "This Life We Choose".
* TheMentor: It looked like Gloria was going to be this for Maddie, showing her to balance the stress of their work with living life. But that is not the case by the end of the episode.
* TragicVillain: She qualifies as this, as it's heavily implied that she ''was'' a good operator at one point. But that all changed eight months prior to "Awful People" when, on the same day her husband had served her with divorce papers, she had to deal with a very bad "dead-end call" (a 9-1-1 call in which the caller inevitably dies no matter what the operator does to help); in this case, the caller's workplace was being shot up by a disgruntled ex-client, and Gloria, upon hearing the gunshots getting closer and unable to face the inevitable, cut off the call. From then on, hanging up on callers just became easier and easier for her, until she was exposed by Maddie and fired. After this, she begin harassing Maddie nonstop with calls and texts, even manipulating a 9-1-1 from her call to Maddie, until while doing this, she ends up in a car accident. Believing that she is going to die, she confesses the reasons behind her decline, and is surprised and touched when Maddie not only sends help for her, but stays on the line to listen and be there for her, even in spite of her actions.
