Added DiffLines:

* TheDeadHaveNames: Subverted. Kane thinks that the list of names in Diyoza's journal is this. However, it's actually far less morbid.


Added DiffLines:

* FreezeFrameBonus: The list of names in Diyoza's journal. They are the first names of the female writers and writers' assistants on the show. FridgeBrilliance reveals they are not the list of the people that Diyoza has killed, as they are only women's names. Her reveal of her baby's gender makes it clear. They are potential baby names.

* ChekhovsGun: The nearly-lethal first batch of Monty's algae was been mentioned several times over the last two episodes before Bellamy uses it to take out Octavia.
* DescentIntoAddiction: This episode marks the lowest point thus far in Abby's addiction, as she is willing to lie to Raven and then torture her with the shock collar so that she will help her in order to continue receiving pills.
* ImpliedDeathThreat: Again from Octavia to Bellamy, when she warns Bellamy that, if he interferes in Clarke's arrest, she might think he was involved. And then they would have enough prisoners for a fight in the pit.
* InLoveWithYourCarnage: Emori admits to John that she "has a desire to rip [his] clothes off" when he is in survivor-mode in the woods, and that ''this'' is the John Murphy she fell in the love with. Subverted in that Emori knows it's not healthy and that it won't last and she tells him they can't be together when it's all over.

* WhatTheHellHero: Monty gives one to Clarke and Bellamy after he discovers that they are planning to murder Cooper. Played with in that he is not trying to talk them out of it, as he has given up on that, but is simply trying to make them feel ashamed of what they are about to do.
