* HateSink: Barnes makes herself quickly hated by not only the BAU but also the local police running the investigation by talking down to them and treating them like servants, much to JJ's annoyance.
* OutOfCharacterIsSeriousBusiness: The normally calm and placid Tara is literally shaking with fury when she confronts Barnes over ordering her to lie to a victim's girlfriend so she won't fall apart and be unable to provide the BAU information.
