History Characters / You2018Season4

* DeadPersonConversation: [[spoiler:She has one with Joe for murdering her, and teamps up with Beck and Love to get him to kill himself.]]

* AnythingThatMoves: He’s openly pansexual, as Phoebe explains, though most of his sexual interactions reveal his penchant for submission to male staff members — as seen when he hooks up with a Sundry House barman and has him piss all over his face in a locked storeroom.

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: All of her friends are pretty vile, and in the second part of the season, she gets back together with Adam after breaking up with him despite the fact he's clearly broke and using her for money. She also brings Joe into her fold from the get-go and fawns over him as her best friend, despite almost everyone else in her circle being suspicious of him and [[spoiler:him being a dissociative SerialKiller.]]

* InspectorJavert: Not an actual police officer, but he serves as this to Joe, finding him suspicious and stalking him.

* EthicalSlut: Phoebe is really open-minded about sex. She has a boudoir where she makes molds of her lovers' cocks and is not angry at Adam for seemingly cheating on her with a male staff member. She even wholeheartedly agrees to participate in his peeing kink but becomes upset when she notices that Adam isn’t enjoying himself, and believes that he sees himself as beneath her, which makes her break up with him for both their sakes.

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: All of her friends are pretty vile, and in the second part of the season, she gets back together with Adam after breaking up with him despite the fact he's clearly broke and using her for money. She also brings Joe into her fold from the get-go, despite almost everyone else in her circle being suspicious of him and [[spoiler:him being a dissociative SerialKiller.]]
* IgnoredEpiphany: After growing paranoid of those around her trying to take advantage her, Phoebe rejects Adam's marriage proposal and breaks up with him. She gets back with him in the next episode after minimal flattery from him and even marries him.

->'''Played by:''' Sean Pertwee

* MoralityPet: Kate, Adam and Vic are snobbish jerks, but all three obviously care for her, though Adam does end up [[KickTheMoralityPet mistreating and neglecting]] her in the second part. Adam compares dating her to eating cookies all the time.

* TheHeavy: As the central antagonist of the season, Adam has the majority of screentime attempting to mooch off Phoebe's wealth by marrying her and save himself from drowning debts. He's not in collusion with neither the Eat-the-Rich killer nor Kate's father, Tom Lockwood, who are BigBadEnsemble.

* VillainHasAPoint: Despite being a delusional stalker, she is on point about Adam taking advantage of Phoebe and Joe being a bastard.

!! Thomas Lockwood

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: He's basically an EvilCounterpart to Phoebe's bodyguard Vic, getting inbetween Joe and the woman he feels obligated to guard at all costs.

* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler:When Joe catches her, she pleads with him that she won't tell anyone. Once she realises that he's killed Edward and plans to pin everything on her, though, she's reduce to terrified silence and BrokenTears.]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler:The season 4 mid-finale reveals Rhys to be the Eat-the-Rich killer, born out of his resentment for how poorly the toxic circle of rich people treat those who are inferior to them. He also plans to run for mayor of London and put a stop to this disparity once and for all. In the second part, however, after Joe kills Rhys, who claims not to know him or Marienne, an imaginary Rhys — a manifestation of Joe's second personality — shows up, and it’s revealed that “he” had encouraged Joe to commit the Eat-the-Rich murders all along]].

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: [[spoiler: Thanks to the book he wrote and his mayoral campaign, Rhys is beloved by both British media and public...which supposedly hides that he's a SerialKiller, as revealed at the end of part 1. However in the second part, it becomes clear that Rhys is a major RedHerring and has always meant well for the city of London, with any villainous behaviour he appeared to exhibit actually being a manifestation of Joe's secondary personality, who encouraged him to commit the murders]].

* NotHelpingYourCase: Despite Dawn truthfully saying that she is ''not'' the Eat-the-Rich killer, however, her kidnapping and attempted murder on Lady Phoebe just gave the police further proof of how mentally ill she really is.

* BlueBlood: She bears the courtesy title ‘Lady’, meaning that her father ranks high in the English peerage and is either an Earl, Marquess, or Duke.

* TokenGoodTeammate: Easily the kindest out of the group — not that it's much competition — despite her being amongst the wealthiest and of the highest social standing as a Lady.

* AristocratsAreEvil: He’s from a high status, blue-blooded family (though unlike Phoebe, he lacks a title), and is both cruel and horribly elitist in equal measure, at one point threatening Joe with a shotgun “in the name of [[UsefulNotes/{{TheBritishEmpire}} The Empire]]”.

* FiveSecondForeshadowing: In his interactions with Joe, Rhys comes off cool, confident and sly with an occasional outburst but otherwise in control. When Joe finds him at his home, Rhys is having an argument with his ex-wife where he's shown more animated than usual and cursing a lot. That [[spoiler: is the first clue this is the real Rhys and Joe has been imagining their supposed "friendship."]]

* ImaginaryFriend: [[spoiler:A dark example. Joe only actually meets Rhys once, very briefly in episode 1. Joe’s fractured mind then manifests an imaginary version of Rhys, who he comes to believe is interacting with him and carrying out the Eat-the-Rich murders — even admitting to them. However, after Joe kills the real Rhys, who literally has no idea who he is, the imaginary manifestation of Rhys appears and Joe comes to realise that his existence and actions have only ever occurred in his head — and that HE is the real killer]].
