* CoolBigBro: Calvin to Claudette. He's a caring protective brother who looks out for and stands up for her.



* {{Foreshadowing}}: In an argument Claudette has with her brother Calvin he says "I'm the only older brother you've got." alluding to his demise.

to:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: DidntThinkThisThrough: Claudette's FatalFlaw. Claudette's HairTriggerTemper and inability to fully consider the consequences of her actions causes many problems. In particular, she often escalates a situation from bad to worse. Sebastian and her brother both point this out: messing with TimeTravel can cause negative consequences and two teenagers involving themselves with a bank robbery and a police shooting where many parties have guns can easily get more people killed. Sebastian actually dies because of her plan and would have died again had her brother not interfered.
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
**
In an argument Claudette has with her brother Calvin he says "I'm the only older brother you've got." alluding to his demise.
** In an early scene, Calvin gets in a tense standoff with two police officers that ends peacefully. Later on, he's not so lucky.


Added DiffLines:

* HairTriggerTemper:
** Claudette has a massive temper which often gets her into trouble. She is easily provoked into starting a fight in a bodega with a man twice her size and had to be bailed out by her brother.
** Less obviously this is [[ItRunsInTheFamily her brother's flaw.]] Calvin will not back down when he is provoked and he is easily provoked by any injustice especially when he's morally right. While this is normally an admirable trait, due to the state of race relations in America, it can be deadly. It's implied that Calvin initially died because he refused to back down from the cops. In a later scene due to Claudette's presence, he quietly hands over his id and almost makes it out unscathed.


Added DiffLines:

* ShootHimHeHasAWallet: Calvin provokes the cops into shooting him by pulling out a phone. It's implied that that's what happened initially.


Added DiffLines:

* TrustPassword: Calvin hands over his dog tags reasoning that his will convince past him. Subverted however as past Calvin sees it as some sort of sick prank.
