* AntagonistInMourning: Alice is ''not'' happy with Kate's apparent death, but that's mostly because it foiled ''[[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou her own]]'' plans for revenge.
* AntiClimax: The last few episodes of season 1 were spent on Alice trying to figure out how to kill Batwoman for good; first by grabbing the journal, and then realizing that kryptonite can break the Batsuit. While Alice's revenge plans do seem quashed with the [[UncertainDoom apparent]] death of Kate, this plot point ''still'' comes into play when Tommy finds the kryptonite and shoots Ryan (in the batsuit) with it...only for her to survive [[MadeOfIron with only a minor injury]]. However, TheStinger shows that the kryptonite may still be having a lingering impact on Ryan, possibly subverting this trope.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even Hush seemed somewhat unnerved that Alice's original plan was to trick Jacob into killing Batwoman only to discover too late that he had killed his own daughter.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Even with the knowledge that their enemies use face swap trickery and realizing ''something'' is clearly amiss with Bruce, Luke still fails to notice it's an impostor, and both brings him into the Batcave ''and'' gives him the kryptonite.

** Tommy may be able to look and sound like Bruce but he is ''not'' a good actor. Tommy also mistakes Bruce's "playboy" persona for what he's like with others and that makes those who knew Bruce like Luke and Julia instantly suspicious. Throw in Tommy's failure to even research the role for details like where Alfred is and the failure to also fix his fingerprints and it's not long until he's exposed.

*HopeSpot: Tommy shoots Ryan with the piece of kryptonite, it doesn’t even break through all the way, so it seems like the kryptonite wasn’t strong enough to kill anyone who wears the suit. But Ryan’s wound at the end is shown with what appears to be kryptonite poisoning.
