* MultitaskedConversation: Sophie calls Eliot via the oil rig's satellite phone. This means everyone in the room can hear Sophie. Eliot warns her of this, so she comes up with a quick lie to let him know the time-table's been moved up. This leads in to RousseauWasRight.
* RousseauWasRight: Eliot spent a lot of time assuming he'd end up having to fight a bunch of rig workers to give Breanna time to hack the data. Turns out, the rig workers were all good guys. So good, in fact, that they plan and throw a baby shower for the new guy (Eliot) when they learn [[MultitaskedConversation his wife is giving birth]]. That several of these men die at the end of the episode ''infuriates'' Eliot.

* ItsPersonal: Harry's daughter brought him this case. The bad guy turns out to be her step-father.
** The episode ends with the destruction of the rig and the deaths of several workers there, some of whom demonstrated themselves to be really great guys. Eliot gets so upset the glass he's holding shatters.
* SayingTooMuch + EngineeredPublicConfession: When Harry shows Ethan the live feed of the on-going leak that has been posted as the front page of GP's own website, Ethan gets so mad he starts shouting things ''on the stand in court'' that confirm the feed is legitimate and practically hands the good guys their case.
* SerialEscalation: Their cover-up didn't work and they got exposed in court, so GP hires RIZ to blow up the oil rig, killing a number of the workers there.
* SharpDressedMan: Harry absolutely rocks a clean cut suit with a waistcoat.

Added DiffLines:
* ShownTheirWork: The show gets legal terminology right. The plaintiff not presenting evidence ''would'' get the court to throw the case out in summary judgment... Except maybe not? Louisiana has its own very weird legal system different from the rest of the country from its history as a former French possession.
Added DiffLines:
* WhatTheHellHero: Ethan calls Harry out for getting involved in the case, accusing him of being a jealous ex.
