History Recap / HavenS4E2Survivors

-->'''Duke:''' You know, if we actually do find this guy and explain to him what he's doing, he could very well have a meltdown.
-->'''Nathan:''' I know.
-->'''Duke:''' You know, I heard it before I said it, but like, ''literally.''

* TwoShotsFromBehindTheBar: Lexie manages to pull this off with a weapon she has to assemble first, even if the weapon was supplied by William.

** Duke also encourages her to just stop taking her medication, and she eventually does at the end of the episode, which is not healthy for the type and duration she's been taking those meds.

** Jennifer has a diagnosis of schizophrenia and is taking antipsychotic medication. This is the typical and recommended course of treatment. But Jennifer ''doesn't have schizophrenia,'' and it's never explained why the medication works for her despite the [[HearingVoices voices she hears]] being real, rather than psychosis. Like other psychotropic medications, antipsychotics regulate chemical imbalances in the brain, an imbalance Jennifer wouldn't have because she's been misdiagnosed.

* ArtisticLicensePharmacology /HollywoodPysch: Similar to other episodes that involve discussions of the brain and psychiatry, there is a grain of truth and a lot of "huh?" involved.

Memory issues are mentioned as a side effect of her medication, which is not accurate. Duke also encourages her to just stop taking her medication, and she eventually does at the end of the episode, which is not healthy for the type and duration she's been taking those meds. Duke also tells her she didn't need to throw them away, that he could have used them for "recreational purposes," which is...not a thing.

** ** The newspaper article Dave shows Jennifer about Audrey appears to be about [[Recap/HavenS2E3LoveMachine Louis Puhfal's machine Trouble.]]

* ContinuityNod: The story Duke tells Jennifer about helping a kid who broke his arm sledding is the [[Recap/HavenS1E2Butterfly same story Nathan tells Audrey]] about the first time his [[FeelNoPain Trouble]] was triggered.
** Wade refers to Duke as his "little brother," which tracks, as Duke was spared from the [[Recap/HavenS2E1ATaleOfTwoAudreys death of the firstborn son plague.]]

* HatedByAll: Nathan is Haven's town pariah.

* AmnesiacResonance: William disassembles a handgun to reassure Lexie he's not a threat. Later in the episode, as two men attempt to lead William away to his death, Lexie grabs the gun and hastily reassembles it, despite having no knowledge of firearms. This seems to remove the doubt for Lexie that William is telling her the truth about her identity, or rather, that she isn't who she thinks she is.

* SurvivorsGuilt: What triggers Don's Trouble.

* MedalOfDishonor: The major conflict of the episode involves Don being honored for his service during the meteor shower, along with the rest of the Haven FD. Since he has SuvivorsGuilt, he feels he doesn't deserve it, and there is the very real threat of him turning the entire crowd into charcoal as a result.
