* CaughtOnTape: At the end of episode five, [[spoiler:Jules chases Landon out into the middle of campus and winds up with several people filming the NoHoldsBarredBeatdown she inflicts on him. Her only saving grace is that she's still in disguise.]]

** [[spoiler:Landon's sidekick]] in episode five can also fight dirty with the best of them, as seen when he stabs Ophelia in the leg with one of the caltrops they used to disable Landon's car.

* DateRape: An integral part of the show, as most of the girls' targets are guys who got away with this.

* IntrepidReporter: As part of his work in Darlington's law review, Harris becomes determined to investigate the activities of the vigilante on campus.

** On the evil side, we have Chloe and the Lindsays. Not only are they able to hold their own in hand-to-hand combat with Jules and Ophelia far better than most of their male targets, but the scope of their evil deeds is far more widespread. While most of Jules and Ophelia's targets are assaulting individual girls to satisfy their own base instincts, the Kappas,systematically abuse''dozens'' of girls at a time over the course of Hell Week (and presumably even after that) and are [[spoiler:profiting from their heinous actions to the tune of twenty thousand dollars a week]]. And to top it all, they are just the latest offenders, as the Kappa leadership has been doing this crap ''every single year'' for ''decades''.

* AccidentalMurder: [[spoiler: Ophelia bashed Carter's brains in with a tire iron because she thought he was going to kill Jules.]] She didn't mean to kill, though.

* NotMyDriver: The villain in the fifth episode is a driver for an Uber-like rideshare company called [=GetIn=] who picks up women who've been out drinking, parks in a back alley, locks the car doors, and rapes them while they're barely (if at all) conscious.

While the Zetas are all about true sisterhood and female empowerment, making their pledges feel welcome through mutual support, the Kappas are a bunch of vicious {{alpha bitch}}es who abuse their pledges to the point of sexual assault and hospitalization. When Kennedy, the leader of the Zetas, tells the new pledges "welcome to Hell Week", she's pretty obviously being sarcastic about it, while Chloe, the leader of the Kappas, is very serious when she describes her sorority's initiation as Hell Week.
