* {{Hypocrisy}}: In the hotel room when Ellis wants to throw herself on the bed, Nadie tries to hold her back, reasoning they are too dirty and should take a bath first so they won't dirty the bedcloth. Ther would be much more weight to Nadie's words, if before saying that, she actually ''didn't'' throw herself on the bed too. Not like Ellis actually listened to her argument. Or any arguments whatsoever.

* InnocentFlowerGirl: In Ep. 21 after suffering a breakdown L.A. encounters a young hispanic girl selling flowers in the country. He draws his thread and she gasps in fear. A SmashCut makes it seem like he murdered her only to reveal later, that not only he didn't harm her, he bought all her flowers.



* SmashCut: Used in episode 21, to make the audience think L.A. has murdered a young flower girl. The next scene shows that [[spoiler: she's just fine, and was happy that he bought all her flowers]].

* GenericCuteness: Nadie is apparently mildly unattractive, or at least very plain judging by the reactions she gets from most men. Even the [[ReallyGetsAround playboy mariachi]] only flirted with her to get money. The way she's drawn, though, the worst you could say about her is that she's a bit skinny for an Amazon.

Or rather ''anything L.A. wants to'' as the thread is ''never seen to hurt him'' or the bracelet, it's stored in. He's also capable of slicing bullets fired at him using it.

First is a same gendered pairing, the second is a pure example.
