You said it yourself in the entry. It was pointed out in-universe that they were being dicks. How exacly writers were intending to make them sympathetic but then point out that they were not?
- Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Acknowledged and Lamp Shaded by Ray & Rip In-Universe as Jax is pissed and makes the case that Rory betrayed them when they trusted him. This is despite the fact that early in the episode he and whole crew gives Mick crap about him telling Snart about the Spear of Destiny despite the fact that Mick obviously thought he was another hallucination he was having and even more Stein is one of the people who knew about this and doesn't come to Micks defense. In the end it's more hard to see why Mick didn't betray the team sooner.
Answering to the guy who brought this back: it was me, and i explained why. The word "unintentionally" is in the trope name for a REASON. The entry points out that them being dicks to Heatwave was acknowledged and intentional on the writer's part. Which means they were not intended to gain sympathy for this. UU covers only situations when writers make chracters lose sympathy without meaning to which in this case clearly didn't happen. Hide / Show Replies
