!!This episode provides examples of:

*
* PoorCommunicationKills: Meisner calls Renard out for killing Manano, who HW were tracking to find Black Claw. Renard in turn calls Meisner out for not sharing his plans if he doesn't want murder suspects arrested.
* ShoutOut:
** The title is based on ''Theatre/IntoTheWoods''.
** The campaign poster Rachel Wood shows Renard is based on the 2008 Obama Hope poster.
* StartOfDarkness: Black Claw reveal their plans for Renard: he's to become mayor, off the good publicity of catching Dixon's killer so quickly. Renard is clearly seduced by the promise of power.
* TorchesAndPitchforks: The Wesen villagers searching for Nick and Monroe to prevent them finding the treasure has a definite feel of this trope to it, although the torches are modern electric ones.
