* JerkassHasAPoint: Doña Paloma asks why Gabe would be in charge of the royal guard if [[PoliceAreUseless if they've proven to be useless if not detrimental in fighting against magic users in the past]], so an experienced magic user like Mateo should be in charge instead. While what Doña pointed out of needing magic to fight magic was blatantly obvious, the real lesson is that Mateo should help Gabe and the royal guard, not lead it. Doña only reluctantly accepts a compromise but ''expects'' Gabe to succeed.

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Flo excitedly tells Elena that even though they got Victor and Carla back, they still need to go after Ash and her awful, terrible, traitorous, scum of a cousin, Esteban. Of course, this raises Elena's ire, causing everyone and everything near by to chaotically float around. After Elena calms down, Flo says that she wants to do it again.

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Mateo [[JerkassHasAPoint agrees with Doña Paloma]] that magic will be needed to fight Ash (and Esteban), and Gabe believes that reinforcements will always be necessary. What the two have to understand is that it wouldn't be effective to have one of these things without the other.
* CharacterDevelopment: As Elena previously insisted on going on searches for Shuriki back in Season 2, she now entrusts that task to Mateo and Gabe by the end of this episode.
* ChekhovsGun:
** Esteban trips over a giant branch that he uses as a trekking pole while he and Ash go to Takaína. It turns into a magical staff after he falls into the Well of Crystals.
** When Elena tells Gabe not to leave the room so that she can talk to him, she accidentally seals the door with a wall of impenetrable magical crystals created by her scepter's magic. She uses this new power to seal the entrance to Takaína at the end.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Ash begs for her master's forgiveness after she stole his tamborita, and he tells her that he's SoProudOfYou because [[CardCarryingVillain this is what villains do]].
