* Toad Jr. has a very troubled life. [[spoiler:His dad's a total prick who doesn't know enough to spend his money wisely and refuses to accept responsibility for it, he lives in a run-down Noir city, and he's shipped off to the farm at the end of the season no matter what you do, thanks to his JerkAss father. He suffers a breakdown while recalling the discovery of Holly's sister's body. He can also potentially be beaten up by Tweedle Dum/Dee.]]
* The breakdown of Faith and Lawrence's marriage. They were happily married royalty back in the Homelands, but upon their arrival in the Mundane world, things quickly went downhill as they struggled to adjust without help from the Fabletown government. With Lawrence unable to find work, Faith was forced to turn to prostitution at the Pudding & Pie to keep them afloat, and she eventually decided to leave him. Feeling like a failure and a burden to his ex-wife, Lawrence fell into a deep depression, culminating in [[spoiler: his attempted suicide so that Faith would be free of him.]]

* [[spoiler:Vivian's [[DrivenToSuicide suicide]] by way of removing her ribbon]] in Episode 5, and the entire scene surrounding it, including the exposition of her DarkAndTroubledPast, as well as [[spoiler:Georgie's reaction to her death]]:
--> [[spoiler:'''Vivian''': I'm sick of everybody thinking that they can just-- do what they want with my life. I thought it would be different here. But it's all the fucking same. Do you think I wanted to be this person? What I did to Faith and Lily... to all of them... Every day I have to look Gwen and Hans in the eye and pretend I don't care. I have to forget what I've done to them. What I took away from them. I look at Nerissa and I hate myself. I can't pretend anymore. Goodbye, Georgie.]]
* [[spoiler:Georgie's [[AlasPoorVillain death scene]]]] in Episode 5. [[spoiler:He may be a Grade A asshole as well as the killer (making him a major antagonist in the game), but the physical and mental anguish he feels in his last moments are heart-rending - he may be a monster, but he's still human enough to sympathize with him and the soul-rending anguish he goes through while slowly dying of disembowelment right after accidentally driving the only woman he ever truly loved to kill herself. His last moments are an even bigger dog-kicking. You can either leave him to die slowly or finish ripping his guts out, which, while faster, is clearly absolutely agonizing. Apparently, Bigby doesn't believe in using guns.]]
* In a [[FridgeHorror fridge sense,]] [[spoiler:the reason Woodsman left town in episode four]] might have been that his friendship with Holly and Gren was [[spoiler:irreconcilably shattered when they found out that he was a frequent customer to Holly's prostitute sister, Lilly]].
* In the end, [[spoiler:if you decapitate the Crooked Man after bringing him in for his trial]] leads to Fabletown being scared of you. All the work you (might) have done to get people to trust you, feels all for nothing. When going past the Fabletown Offices the next day, no one but Gren looks happy to see you and if you try to apologize to Snow about killing the Crooked Man, she has no time to listen. Even during the final conversation with Nerissa at the end of the game, Bigby can admit he doesn't know where he and her stand.

** While searching Lawrence's apartment, Bigby can find Faith's last note to her husband still taped to the fridge, reminding him when the rent is due, that there's pizza in the freezer, and asking him not to come looking for her.
