* StrawFeminist: Alex's personal assistant Isabella has this vibe, [[AcceptableTargets with some Gen Z stereotyping as well.]] When [[spoiler:Alex leaves the show and disappears to Italy without telling anyone and stops answering all attempts to communicate with her]] in Season 2, Chip drops by Alex's penthouse on orders from Mia to get some answers, and finds Isabella. In addition to being barely capable of having an adult conversation with Chip -- being first uncooperative, then disrespectful, then silently pouting -- Isabella responds to his pressing her for info with...a bizarre and totally out-of-left-field lecture about the faults of "mediocre white men." Even if you happen to agree with her assessment of Chip ([[https://www.reddit.com/r/TheMorningShow/comments/qh7c8i/mediocre_white_men_scene_major_cringe/ and]] [[https://www.npr.org/2021/10/22/1045977613/the-morning-show-recap-season-2-ep-6-alex-is-gone-and-so-is-bradleys-privacy many]] [[https://www.vulture.com/article/the-morning-show-recap-season-2-episode-6-a-private-person.html didn't]]), having her rant about it in an unrelated conversation this way -- combined with the fact that she works for (and ardently defends) Alex, herself a white woman who doubles as one of the most toxic characters on the entire show -- makes her supposed progressivism come off as childishly immature and hypocritical, which, in a bit of comic relief, Chip actually lampshades.

* PregnancyScare: Played with in "La Amara Vita". [[Spoiler: While visiting Mitch in Italy, Alex confesses that she thought she was pregnant after they slept together for the first time. Unlike most examples of this trope, however, she actually wanted to keep the baby and her anxiety was over how she could do so without causing a major scandal (as she and Mitch were both married at the time). It turned out she was just really late, but she grieved it all the same.]]
