- Too Dumb to Live: Despite knowing that Taylor can take down heavy hitters like Hookwolf and Stormtiger, Emma still insults Taylor to her face.
- Villain with Good Publicity: The ABB earns goodwill when they go on a devastating attack on the E88 and the Merchants while avoiding collateral damage. It even causes public opinion of the PRT to go down due to looking inept in comparison.
