* EasilyForgiven: The majority of Selina's staff had been fired or resigned at least once over the course of the show, where the narrative then splits them apart into a separate storyline to show them dealing with unemployment or a job away from the White House. They eventually come back to work with Selina despite how [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech brutal their firing or resignation was previously]]. This does accurately reflect the complexities of politics, taking in familiar faces [[TeethClenchedTeamwork despite hating them]] because they are familiar with each other and ironically trust them more than someone else.
* OnceMoreWithClarity: Over several episodes Catherine is shown to be recording various conversations in the White House for a college class project. A later {{Mockumentary}} episode shows many of those conversations having much different tones when you see what happens before or after.

She strikes a deal with Governor Calhoun to have him become the Secretary of Education and a promise to make gay marriage illegal, which destroys her relationship with Catherine. She offers Jonah the VP position to gain his voters, which is so absurd Kent is shaken up and quits politics that night. And she arranges to have Gary take the fall for the campaign donation scandal, with him being escorted away by FBI agents. This is already paired with her making a backdoor deal for Chinese assistance by promising they can retake Tibet, which makes firing Dan and demoting Amy in the same night barely register]]. In the span of an evening she managed to alienate or sacrifice near every member of her long-standing team, but which did earn her the nomination.
