* TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: Gregor attempted to get rid of Ciaobella by poisoning her smoothies. Her bulimia meant the poison wasn't absorbed until after Gregor's own death, but it did work it's magic eventually. Emily almost dies from drinking them, but luckily recovers.

Added DiffLines:

* UndercoverModel: A rare male case occurs when Shawn and Gus claim to be male models. Both played straight with Gus and subverted when nobody believes Shawn is a model, forcing him to claim to be a foot (and ankle!) model.

* OnlySaneMan: Shawn lampshades his sudden status as this in one scene: not only is Gus living a lie to try and score with an idiotic model, but Chief Vick has just questioned Shawn about Henry's status with Susan (which he has [[ParentalSexualitySquick no interest in discussing]]) and [[{{Hypocrite}} had the nerve to accuse him of wasting her time]] right afterward, even though Shawn is the only one (aside from Juliet and Lassiter) to stay focused on the case from start to finish.

* LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand: As Shawn, Gus, and the models do a PowerWalk towards their limousine, snazzy music starts playing… until Henry turns up looking for Shawn, at which point, this trope hits in full force.

* ThePrimaDonna: Several models, especially Sigrid, but the worst is Ciaobella, Gregor’s wife and business partner. She’s obnoxious, rude, and treats everyone around her like dirt. Gus starts acting this way as he gets more and more into character as a model.
* PowerWalk: When the models head out to the bar to do some O2. Subverted when Henry interrupts it.

* BoobyTrap: In order to ensure Gregor would touch the microphone, the killer had it lowered shorter than Gregor actually was. He grabbed it to adjust it, and poof; one dead fashion designer.

* BrainlessBeauty: Every single model working for Gregor is shown as this. One woman, named Sigrid, apparently can't even ''spell her own name.'' Even the most sympathetic ones are generally airheaded, egotistical, and vapid, and the majority are also snobbish and obnoxious, running the gamut from TheDitz to ThePrimaDonna.

* BecomingTheMask: As Gus is increasingly welcomed into the models’ social circle, he starts getting more callous and obnoxious towards Shawn (and everyone else). He claims he’s staying in character, though some of his decisions in said character are… questionable.

* ForcedIntoTheirSundayBest: In the show’s ColdOpen, Young Shawn tries to sneak past Henry in a Series/KnightRider T-Shirt, rather than the sweater-vest provided by his mother. Henry catches him and points him upstairs to change – turns out it’s PictureDay at school.
