!!Tropes:
* AbortedArc: Colonel Grace, leader of some kind of black ops unit who seems to know about the Gua as well as the truth about Cade. She's set up as a recurring antagonist, but after this she appears in one more episode and is referred to in another. It's not established what her agenda is or even if she's human.
* CompellingVoice: The titular "Mata Hari", Lara, has the power to force people to do what she tells them. Cade startles himself by immediately telling her he's a fugitive when she calls bullshit on his cover story.
* FreudianExcuse: Lara was sold by her parents to the U.S. Government after her psychic powers became known. They used her for years, but she escaped and became a PsychoForHire.
* MacGuffin: Lara's overall purpose is to prevent a system of satellites from being deployed that could be used against a Gua attack from space.
* ScmuckBait: Colonel Grace's offer to expunge Cade's criminal record in exchange for his apprehending Lara. C'mon, Cade, you didn't really believe that, did you?
