History Recap / SupernaturalS03E03BadDayAtBlackRock

* ArtifactOfDeath: According to Bobby, most people who own and subsequently loose a rabbit's foot die within a week.

* ClassyCatBurglar: Bela
* CollectorOfTheStrange: Bela hunts down valuable occult objects for wealthy people who know of the [[TheMasquerade Masquerade]].
* CounterpartComparison: Bela to [[Series/{{Angel}} Gwen Raiden]], a ClassyCatBurglar who is part of TheMasquerade and is hired to steal mystical objects for large sums of money.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Bela who dresses up as a waiter and [[DistractedByTheSexy manages to distract Sam]] in order to [[FiveFingerDiscount steal the rabbit's foot from his pocket]] without him realizing.

* EvilBrit: More like [[ChaoticNeutral Chaotic Neutral]] Brit, but Bela mostly applies.
* GoodLuckCharm[=/=]BadLuckCharm

* ImprobableAimingSkills: Due to the effects of the rabbit's foot.

* KnightTemplar: Kubrick. He sees hunting as a holy crusade against the forces of evil, specifically the Devil. He ends up believing that Sam is the [[AntiChrist AntiChrist]].

* NecroNonSequitur: Wayne trips on a bottle and lands on an upright meat fork which stabs him through the mouth. Sam comes pretty darn close at times.
* NeverWinTheLottery: Dean uses the rabbit's foot to win money from scratch tickets only to have Bela steal them all.
* MacGuffin
* MoodWhiplash: Multiple times. Scenes of torture and gruesome death follow or are followed by slapstick comedy.

* OnlyInItForTheMoney / NotInThisForYourRevolution: Bela encounters the supernatural and the occult and instead of using her knowledge to help people she steals valuable items and sells them for money (to the scorn of Sam and Dean). The only way Bela and the Winchesters end up working together is when Bela's life is in danger.
* PinballProjectile: Dean drops his gun and it goes off. The bullet ricochets off several objects, shoots the gun out of Sam's hands and nearly misses hitting him.

* SuperstitionEpisode: Sam accidentally invokes (by touching) a cursed rabbit's foot. He has incredibly good luck for a while until he inevitably loses it (as father figure, Bobby puts it "Everyone loses it"), and then Sam's luck goes extremely bad. Not a straight example perhaps, because the rabbit's foot is a cursed object, so it isn't just superstition - though how it works is based on superstition - because touching the rabbit's foot really IS good and then bad luck.

* ButtMonkey[=/=]CosmicPlaything: Sam trips and falls, gets tracked by hunters, set on fire and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking looses his shoe]].
