* MagnificentBastard: Dr. Jonathan Banks [[spoiler:would grow to become [[TookALevelInBadass ruthless and calculating]] during his pursuit of {{revenge}} against [[BigBadDuumvirate Emily Taylor and Dr. Victoria Siebert]] after they ruined his life. To confirm that Emily was indeed [[ObfuscatingInsanity faking psychiatric disorders]] when she killed her husband, Banks tricks Emily into injecting herself with salt water on the pretense that it is a truth serum that would make her drowsy. Banks suspicions are confirmed when Emily feigns drowsiness and he then threatens her with [[ElectricTorture electric shock treatment]]. Emily would confess that she plotted with Siebert to kill her husband while under Ablixa and use the drug's negative publicity to manipulate stock prices, where Banks then has Emily turn on Siebert before recommitting Emily to the psychiatric ward, while also regaining both his family and reputation]].

* CastingGag: This isn't the first time Jude Law has played [[Film/SherlockHolmes2009 a doctor who does some investigating]].
* FridgeBrilliance: Might seem a tad odd that Seibert had several intimate details about a client she treated four years prior ready to divulge right off the top of her head. [[spoiler:Makes a lot more sense when you realize they were romantically involved.]]
