* EveryoneHasStandards: While Janice is a bit of a scaredy-cat, she was willing to risk her career to expose the fact that the company she works for was selling non-working drugs to their clients. She also genuinely didn't know that the people she hired to do the data theft to gather the evidence she needed for the whistleblowing were planning on killing the hostages (in fact, the original plan was to do the break-in and the data theft to not happen until that night so nobody would have even known about it until she exposed the company’s corruption) and [[CowardlyLion ends up risking her life to save everybody]]. This ends up being one of the reasons why Abby writes a letter to the District Attorney asking for them to be lenient on Janice.

No Pronunciation Guide is now a disambig. Dewicking


* NoPronunciationGuide: InUniverse, this is one of the reasons why Abby figured out that Janice was in on the whole plan. One of the gunmen pronounced S-C-H-U-I-T-O after reading the name off a sign-in sheet, and Abby knows that there's no way the guy could have gotten the pronunciation of her last name right just by reading it.

* AssholeVictim: Discussed; When Janice wonders if they really have to kill the gunmen to save the hostages, Abby recalls one moment when she was in fifth grade, her class watched a movie and they cheered when the good guy killed the bad guy. That was when the teacher scolded them for doing so because a human being killed shouldn't be applauded no matter who they were.
