* ArmorPiercingResponse: Duke's response to Nathan and Audrey's pleas for his help in this case is two well-deserved [[ReasonYouSuckSpeech "Reason You Suck" Speeches]] and pushes Nathan to retreat back ThePlan they had originally, which is to have Audrey kill him to end the Troubles. It leads him to beg Audrey to shoot him, claiming it's the "most loving thing they can do."

* ViewersAreGoldfish: Jack Driscoll and Duke have a conversation about the Trouble of the week being the kind of pressure you get deep-sea diving, and then confront the seriousness of Vince and Dave having the bends. The very next scene is Gloria, "Lexie," and Nathan having pretty much the same conversation almost word for word.

Added DiffLines:

* FantasticRacism: A more subtle variety than usual. Jack and Aiden are both Driscolls, nephews of the Rev. Jack is disappointed that Duke is leaving town, insisting that the Driscolls and the Crockers have "protected" Haven from the Troubled for centuries. When it's revealed to him that ''he'' is Troubled, Jack freaks out, needing to be locked in a decompression chamber to get rid of his pressure bubble. He tells Nathan and Audrey that his family's "pride" has always been that they aren't Troubled. Aiden has a similar, if less overt, freak out at the news that he is also now Troubled.

Seemingly the options are having Duke kill Jack to end the Driscoll Trouble or have Audrey kill Nathan to end all the Troubles, but Duke pulls up with a van full of deep-sea diving suits so they can enter the pressure bubble and talk Aiden down.
