* AllForNothing: Invokved by Picard when ''Intrepid'' is about to fire on ''Titan'' and Shaw's indecisive. He furiously states that if they don't run ''now'', then Ro will have died for nothing and many more will follow.

** When citing their historic accolades for possible leniency with Starfleet, Shaw points out to Picard and Riker that they could also remember the times they [[Film/StarTrekGenerations dropped the Enterprise-D saucer section on a planet]], [[Film/StarTrekInsurrection threw out the Prime Directive on Ba'ku]], or [[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS7E24AllGoodThings nearly wiped out humanity with a time paradox in the Devron system]].

* HeroicBSOD: Picard enters it after Ro's murder. He's forced to snap out of it once the ''Intrepid'' prepares to attack ''Titan''. Riker also gets hit with it and while he holds it together better than Picard, you can hear his grief and fury over Ro's death in his voice while explaining the FrameUp to Shaw.

'''Shaw:''' ''Or'' they might remember [[Film/StarTrekGenerations that time someone hot-dropped the saucer section of the]] ''[[Film/StarTrekGenerations Enterprise]]''[[Film/StarTrekGenerations -D on a planet]], ''or'' [[Film/StarTrekInsurrection that time that someone threw the Prime Directive out the window so they could snog a villager on Ba'ku]], ''or'' [[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS7E24AllGoodThings the time you boys nearly wiped out all of humanity by creating a time paradox in the Devron system]]. Basically, when it comes to rescues from danger, you two have a real "chicken or egg" thing happening.

* ContrivedCoincidence: Ro Laren, someone Picard hasn't seen in 30 years, conveniently returns as a Starfleet Intelligence representative (let alone reinstated despite her treason during the Maquis crisis) just as the ''Titan'' has uncovered evidence of a Changeling infiltration? Picard justifiably calls bullshit and thinks she's a Changeling (especially after Beverly's autopsy reveals their new shapeshifting abilities). However, their confrontation in the Ten Forward simulation ultimately makes Picard realize this really ''is'' Ro and not a Changeling. Given her investigation, Ro's decision to confront Picard personally likely isn't a coincidence, either, being someone she could confirm isn't a Changeling through personal experience (and she's right).

** Under Beverlys' request not to alert Starfleet, Picard and Riker quietly caught a ride on the Titan hoping to piggyback to get close enough to her location. During the battle with the Shrike it's revealed that the Titan had [[TheMole a Mole]] operating under Vadics' orders, which seemed absurd given how random the conflict came about. This episode reveals the [[TheConspiracy Changeling infiltration is throughout Starfleet]] and is not just a handful of minions, while maybe not on every ship there was likely to be one close enough to cause trouble.
