History Recap / RWBYV4E6TippingPoint

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Weiss snaps and gives everyone at the fundraiser one out of disgust for their petty and self-absorbed behavior, especially since not one of them actually cares about Vale's plight.

-->'''Weiss''': Shut up! You don't have a clue! None of you do! You're all just standing around, talking about nothing: worrying about your hair, your money, your stupid problems that don't mean anything!

* AdultFear: Qrow is shown rushing desperately to save Team RNJR from Tyrian. He even stumbles and has to force himself to keep running through it. He barely makes it in time, and while he stops Tyrian's strike with the blade on his back in an apparently impressive manner, he visibly heaves a shaky sigh of relief. The whole scene is less the "rule of cool" associated with a big heroic rescue, and more the desperate panic of someone who's terrified he won't make it time to save a group of kids from certain death.

* NoSympathy: The socialites at the fundraiser frequently talk about normal things instead of showing any sympathy for Vale's plight. Eventually, when a trophy wife mockingly state that Vale deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm, Weiss furiously lectures the room on their petty self-absorption.

* NoSympathy: The socialites at the fund-raiser don't show any sympathy for Vale's plight, instead focussing on normal things. Eventually, when one of the socialites mockingly state that Vale deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm, Weiss furiously lectures the room on their petty self-absorption.

* RichBitch: Most of the social elite of Atlas counts, but the trophy wife who Weiss accidentally attacks with a summoned Boarbatusk stands out, considering the fact that she has absolutely NoSympathy for Vale's plight and gloats that the kingdom ''deserved'' to be sacked by Grimm.

* NoSympathy: Most of the socialites at the fund-raiser talk about mundane things instead of focussing on Vale's plight. At one point, a trophy wife mockingly states that Vale deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm. Upset, Weiss lectures the room on their petty self-absorption and inadvertently summons a Boarbatusk to attack the trophy wife. When the trophy wife demands Weiss be arrested for these actions, Ironwood points out that Weiss is the only person in the room talking sense and leaves.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Jacques Schnee shows shades of this. He clearly doesn't actually care about Vale's plight, and only hosts a fundraiser for it for the sake of good publicity.

* NoSympathy: At the fund-raiser, most socialites are talking about mundane things instead of focussing on Vale's plight. A trophy wife loudly laughs and sneers at what happened to Vale, stating that the kingdom deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm. Upset, Weiss lectures the room on their petty self-absorption and inadvertently summons a Boarbatusk to attack the trophy wife. When the trophy wife demands Weiss be arrested for these actions, Ironwood points out that Weiss is the only person in the room talking sense and leaves.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Ironwood doesn't fault Weiss for her loss of control. When the woman Weiss accidentally attacks with her uncontrolled Semblance insists that Weiss be locked up for insanity, Ironwood completely dismisses her, siding with Weiss. Immediately after, he leaves the party after sarcastically thanking Jacques for the festivities.
--> '''Ironwood:''' She's the only one making sense around here.

* NoSympathy: At the fund-raiser, most socialites are talking about mundane things instead of focussing on Vale's plight. A trophy wife loudly laughs and sneers at what happened to Vale, stating that the kingdom deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm. Weiss is so upset that she first lectures the room on their petty self-absorption and then accidentally summons a Boarbatusk to attack the trophy wife. When the trophy wife demands Weiss be arrested for clearly being dangerously insane, Ironwood simply tells her that Weiss is the only person in the room talking sense and leaves.
* PowerIncontinence: After getting upset with the asshole guests at her father's charity ball, and fighting her father, Weiss accidentally summons a boarbatusk that tries to attack the woman that caused her to lose her temper. Luckily, Ironwood stops it.

* NoSympathy: All of the party-goers at the fundraiser are this, but especially the trophy wife who Weiss accidentally sics a Boarbatusk on, who ''laughs'' about what happened to Vale and openly states that the kingdom deserved to be destroyed by the Grimm.

[[caption-width-right:350:"I'm not your pet, not another thing you own. I was not born guilty of your crimes. Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore. I won't be possessed, burdened by your royal test. I will not surrender. This life is mine."]]

* TheWorfBarrage: Tyrian effortlessly blocks a hammer swing by an electrically charged Nora, an attack that has previously taken out an entire ''team'' of opponents and which has always been used as both Team JNPR and Team RNJR's trump card in battle. Tyrian easy dismissal of the attack is a stark reminder that he is an experienced fighter handling a bunch of inexperienced (by comparison) kids.

* RealityEnsues: InUniverse. Ruby, like some viewers, believes that the trek to Mistral would take a short time period before getting to new things, about two weeks at most. Such a trek would take her and her team across an entire ''continent'', so the sheer amount of walking would be ''far'' longer.
