* LatinoIsBrown: Averted. Emily is Mexican-American, with one episode stating she has ancestors from Guadalajara and she's shown to be bilingual, but has the same skin tone as Josh. It's unknown if she has a biological parent(s) who's Mexican or if she took a step-parent's surname (similar to [[WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman Todd Chavez]]).

It's unknown if she has a biological parent(s) who's Mexican and she's just light skinned, or if she took a step-parent's surname (similar to [[WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman Todd Chavez]]).



* AmicableExes: She and Alex get along pretty well most of the time and its even hinted a few times there is still an attraction between them. That said, anytime they even so much as think about getting back together they quickly realize that they're BetterAsFriends. At the end of "Match Made In Valhalla", after they both realize they still have feelings for each other, they decide to officially get back together and take it slowly this time.

* StupidEvil: More like stupid narcissist, but her inability to think about other peoples feelings or remember details about them makes her come off rather stupid. Like, she thinks that Candice (a child) is just Emily's "tiny buttler" rather than her daughter, since every time Emily tells her she's her daughter she never bothers to remember. Also, at the end of the episode when Emily furiously tells her to go to hell, Becca takes this as an actual demand before "reminding" her that she already is going back there with Luc.

She also doesn't bother to remember she's married to Josh despite also being at their wedding and calls him "Jersh", nor does she bother to remember who Alex or Bridgette are. Also, at the end of the episode when Emily furiously tells her to go to hell, Becca takes this as an actual demand before "reminding" her that she already is going back there with Luc.Luc and their demon baby.

Added DiffLines:

* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: When she stays in Becca and Josh's apartment, she hogs the shower, hogs the TV, and throws out all of Alex's stuff from his closet. Things just get worse when her pregnancy with Lucifer's baby starts.

Added DiffLines:

* EntitledBastard: She expects everyone around her to bend over backwards for her, including her "friend" Emily. She shows no thanks or care for them in return and if they mess up in the smallest way (like getting her the wrong type of towels she wanted) she complains about them not listening and being selfish. Back in college she even used to steal Emily's clothes and not give them back, using the justification that they looked better on her as an excuse.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Narcissist}}: Becca's personality, 100%.


Added DiffLines:

* PsychologicalProjection: She accuses Emily of being selfish instead of her and at the end of the episode "breaks off" from Emily calling her toxic and never listening to her. Completely ignoring that Emily already broke off with her while accusing HER of being toxic.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She may sometimes come off as mean and chaotic, but she is really a good-hearted person who enjoys having fun with others, deeply loves her family and cherishes her friendships. She also doesn't like intentionally hurting others and will feel bad.

Other than that, she is really a good-hearted person who enjoys having fun with others, deeply loves her family and cherishes her friendships. She also doesn't like intentionally hurting others and will feel bad.

* AbusiveParents: For almost their entire lives she pushed her daughters to become their greatest by shaming them and purposely making them feel inadequate in each other's shadows without the other ones knowledge, thus pushing them to outdo one another. In fact, this was all the way back to when Olivia was born, when she chastised Bridgette for not being born as fast as Olivia, and when she walked away in shame she refused to hold Olivia for the first time until she stopped crying and was quiet like Bridgette. It took them gaining super-intelligence from Olivia's Intelli-pill to realize what she's been doing to them, and just before they realized it they were using their super-intelligent powers to fight each other just so they could gain their mother's approval. A fight that she goaded on despite the fact that they could've killed each other or worse, destroy the whole city.

* HateSink: Has no redeeming qualities and is self centered and obnoxious, and even after Emily tells her off she never realizes how horrible she is, instead believing Emily is the toxic one, and ultimately receives no comeuppance for her horrible personality or treating everyone badly. Many viewers who had or have known a Becca in real life agree her portrayal is pretty spot on.

* ItsAllAboutMe: She can't bring herself to care about anyone besides herself. She always imposes herself on Emily's life, takes advantage of her [[ExtremeDoormat kindness]] and couldn't care less about her, which includes never even remembering she has a husband and a daughter, despite the fact she was at both Emily and Josh’s wedding and Candice’s birth. After Emily finally tells her off and tells her to get out of her life, as she and Luc move out she tells Emily ''she's'' the one cutting ''her'' off saying she’s the toxic one, either completely oblivious or not listening/caring about what Emily told her.

Added DiffLines:

* NeverMyFault: While Emily angrily tells her off for the times she’s been a horrible friend throughout the years, such as making her cut her hair back in college because their lengths were "too match-y" and that she borrowed all her clothes and never gave them back, Becca angrily retorts back that she’s the long haired friend and it’s not her fault her clothes looked hotter on her. Emily finally tells her she wants her out of her home and her life, but when Becca is leaving with her demon baby to join Luc in hell, she tells Emily ''she's'' the one cutting ''her'' off saying she’s the toxic one, and shes a mom now, something Emily wouldn’t understand (once again not bothering to remember she has a child, and when a frustrated Emily points out Candice to her, she insists she’s their tiny butler.)
