* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Arguably {{justified|Trope}}. After being raped by the man who turns out to be her first victim, Aileen escapes, grabs his gun, blasts him several times, continues firing into his corpse and does not stop until she's completely emptied the clip. Shortly after, she starts beating his corpse with the gun whilst punctuating each beat with rage-filled insults. Of course Aileen follows up this act of self-defense with a string of cold-blooded murders, all while still using the justification of self-defense.
