* DeconstructedTrope:
** Will and Frankie's vastly different personalities are beneficial and troublesome to them in many ways: Will is a sensitive, empathetic NiceGuy which allows him to charm and befriend targets and potential allies and act as a good leader who cares for his team. However, he's vulnerable to being manipulated and has a hard time in situations where he has to endanger his teammates. On the other hand, Frankie's borderline-sociopathic coldness and professionalism makes her an effective spy and combatant, however, she has trouble connecting and working with other people, even if they're on her team.
** Just because you're familiar with how to handle small arms based on fiction does not translate to real life. Edgar was warned about this by Jai before the former accidentally shot the latter during an operation in Rome.
