** When Amaya lost her totem, it meant that Mari no longer became Vixen. Instead she became a vigilante without powers. Subverted as she ended up hospitalized attempting to rescue people from a fire.



* EnemyMine: Subverted. Nate forms an alliance with Kuasa to help her protect Mari from danger. However, Kuasa is well aware of the danger that Nate's romance with Amaya poses to her and Mari's timeline, so naturally she uses the opportunity to have the Dharks kill him.

* ForWantOfANail: Amaya losing her totem turned out to have consequences: Since she doesn't have it anymore, she could never pass it on to Mari, meaning that Mari became a vigilante without powers and got badly burned trying to save people from a fire. What's worse, this indicates that the changes to Amaya's timeline are starting to solidify, meaning that if Amaya doesn't get back to her own time quickly, Mari will cease to exist altogether.
