* WhatAnIdiot: Bourne is guiding Simon Ross, a Guardian journalist, through Waterloo Station while CIA agents attempt to kill them both.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Since Ross is a NonActionGuy and he has written enough articles about Bourne to know of his reputation as an incredibly clever and badass assassin, he would listen to every word Bourne says and follow his orders.\\
'''Instead:''' He panics and deviates from Bourne's instructions twice.\\
'''The Result:''' [[TooDumbToLive He exposes himself to a sniper and gets killed as a result.]]

* MagnificentBastard: Dr. Albert Hirsch is the psychologist overseeing the behavioral transition of candidates into the Treadstone program—and continues on through the Blackbriar and Operation Outcome programs as well, during which he watches the torture the recruits undergo to agree to submit to joining and following orders without question. Hirsch also once each candidate is primed, modified and ready personally gives his approval for each once they've successfully executed a masked prisoner—as he did with Bourne—and then proudly sends them off for active duties as Black Ops assassins. Hirsch once finding out from Noah Vosen that Bourne is on his way chooses to stay not only to give the CIA the chance to race there to catch Bourne, but also to willingly fill Bourne in on what he wants to know as well in hopes he can convince him to come back—remaining very calm and relaxed even when Bourne holds a gun to his head.

** In the beginning, Bourne revealing insider information about a top secret and sinister program run by a US government agency to a journalist working for ''The Guardian'' is bearing an eerie resemblance to what Edward Snowden did six years after the movie's release.
