History Recap / PsychS02E15BlackAndTanACrimeOfFashion

* WeightWoe: Hinted at with Ciaobella, who was rail-thin and bulimic when she died – to the point where two of her fingers were slightly discolored from constantly putting them down her throat. Said bulimia is what prevented Gregor's poison from killing her until after she killed him first.

* Fauxreigner: Gregor appears to be European, but was really just an American putting on an accent.

* FakeForeigner: Gregor appears to be European, but was really just an American putting on a voice.

* AwfulWeddedLife: Gregor and his wife, Ciaobella. [[spoiler: They ended up killing each other.]]

* HighVoltageDeath: Gregor when he touches the mic stand [[spoiler: Ciaobella]] tampered with.

* MutualKill: [[spoiler: Gregor and his wife Ciaobella killed each other. Ciaobella tampered with the electrical systems in the microphone stand, and Gregor tried poisoning Ciaobella, but her bulimia slowed the effects of the poison to the point where she got to kill him before they took hold.]]

* RedHerring: Emily Bloom. She's the next in line for company president if Gregor and Ciaobella die. Gregor has been stealing her designs and passing them off as his own. Ciaobella is quite verbally abusive towards her. After she takes the helm, Juliet comes to investigate her and Bloom gives her a makeover (read: bribe). However, she's not only not the killer, [[spoiler:she's almost the next victim by accident.]]

* WeightWoe: Hinted at with Ciaobella, who was rail-thin and bulimic when she died – to the point where two of her fingers were slightly discolored from constantly putting them down her throat. [[spoiler: Said bulimia is what prevented Gregor's poison from killing her until after she killed him first.]]

* DisproportionateRetribution: When a mdoel insults his jacket, Lassiter stands up and whips out his baton.

* 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.

After Shawn takes Gus to an exclusive club’s fashion show for his birthday, the host of the show – a designer named Gregor Uwe Steeb – is electrocuted by faulty wiring in his microphone. The fashion models and designers are less-than-cooperative with the police, taking the opportunity to mock their own fashions. Shawn and Gus got into the club by pretending to be retired models, Mr. Black and Mr. Tan (Shawn is Mr. Black, Gus is Mr. Tan), and the duo decide to see if anyone wanted Gregor dead by using their Black and Tan personas to live among the models for a little while… and see if they can keep anyone else from being killed.

* BrainlessBeauty: Every single model in the fashion industry 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.

* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: Gus clobbers a model clean across the room at one point – with a ‘’pillow’’.

* BrainlessBeauty: Even the friendlier models in the fashion industry are 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.

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

Even the most sympathetic models in the episode are generally airheaded, egotistical, and vapid, and the majority are also snobbish and obnoxious, running the gamut from TheDitz to ThePrimaDonna.

* NoodleIncident: Exactly how did Shawn get himself and Gus into the fashion launch party? Apparently, the club’s phone number is in the phone book, and Shawn can pull a convincing Pilipino accent.

* AcceptableProfessionalTargets: Models, and people in the fashion industry in general. Even the most sympathetic ones in the episode are generally airheaded, egotistical, and vapid, and the majority are also snobbish and obnoxious, running the gamut from TheDitz to ThePrimaDonna.

* BeleaguredAssistant: Emily Bloom, Gregor and Ciaobella’s assistant. She designed most of Gregor’s most recent clothing line, only for him to take all the credit. She’s generally treated like absolute garbage by both of them. Made worse by the fact that she’s a legitimate NiceGirl, one of the very few we see in the industry.

* DudeWheresMyRespect: Emily Bloom, see BeleaguredAssistant above.
