* CountryMatters: In the dinner scene, Camille calls Victorine a cunt while most of the assembled family members are sniping at each other.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: We get previews of what the Usher children and their relatives are like in their reactions to the news of an informant in birth order.
** Frederick can't comprehend the difference between a mole and an informant and immediately suspects Perry. Lenore explains the difference and says that if the charges are true, they deserve to be punished. Morella is making a cake to cheer Frederick up and tells Lenore off for suggesting the family might deserve it.

** When Roderick is cutting the pharmacology law cake and everyone is clapping:
*** Lenore is genuinely happy, while Frederick is failing to be the same.
*** Victorine applauds grudgingly. Alessandra is confused, but claps anyway and smiles at Vic.
*** Madeline stops clapping early. Tammy is, along with Bill and Napoleon, seemingly genuinely impressed. Leo claps more slowly, and Camille is unimpressed but claps anyway. Prospero foregoes clapping and gives an are-you-serious look to the rest of his family, upset. Another shot when the Starbucks cup cake is shot shows the same patterns above.
** Similarly, there are shots displaying the various reactions to the NDA.
*** Arthur bumps Tammy, who clutches her head in pain while Bill looks at her with concern.
*** Leo is confused as to whether the NDA is also cake, Camille is on her phone and accepts the NDA with one hand without looking at it, and Perry stares at it. Camille snarks about the legalistic process of it all.
*** Frederick and Morella look at it intently, as does Lenore, who nods at Arthur as she receives it.
*** Victorine examines the NDA, while Alessandra is shocked to receive one.
** The subsequent banter about the paperwork includes:
*** Bill making a joke about his feeling excluded, Alessandra wanting to have a lawyer look over it but quailing under pressure, and Camille sniping at Juno (who takes a gulp of wine).
*** Vic sniping at Camille and giving her the finger when Camille hits back (as Leo sighs), Frederick intervening, and Tammy sniping at him.
** When the bounty is discussed:
*** Lenore, Frederick, and Morella are surprised.
*** Vic is inquiring, Al is confused.
*** Tammy and Bill look at each other. Leo is disquieted, Camille smiles, Perry just stares.

* AnalogyBackfire: Eliza tells her son that any pain and suffering are like the kisses of Jesus. Although this is connected to her religious nature, and modern-day Roderick makes a pretty snippy joke about the analogy.
-->'''Roderick (modern):''' "If pain and suffering were the kisses of Jesus, then he kissed the living ''fuck'' out of my mother in the years that followed."
* BuriedAlive: Eliza is buried in the backyard due to Roderick and Madeline noticing no vitals. But during the thunderstorm, they both notice the burial undug, the coffin smashed to smithereens, and ''a trail of muddy footprints leading into the house''.
* CassandraTruth: When Roderick says that Eliza is standing behind Auggie, the latter describes how certain businessmen will use high-pressure tactics to force a reaction, and he refuses to look back. But if one looks closely, ''she really is there''. And during a clap of thunder, ''simply leaves''.
* DeathGlare: Eliza gives a ''fierce'' one to Roderick while choking him.

* ForegoneConclusion: It's established firmly in the beginning that Roderick's children are all dead with the reveal of the newspaper clippings, all confirming their deaths.
* FreezeFrameBonus: In a pure 'blink-and-you-miss' moment, the audience can catch a glimpse of Eliza ''standing behind'' Roderick, before Maddie points.

During the dinner, Madeline makes the promise that if anyone were to come after the family, they will exhaust everything they have until "the threat is neutralized." But when Frederick believes it to be an analogy of suing people to oblivion, Madeline, very impatient, corrects him that by "neutralize", she means "dead".
* ItsAlwaysSunnyAtFunerals: Outside the church, it's sunny with hints of it being overcast during the service.
* IWantMyMommy: Due to the immense fear of seeing the undug burial, Roderick and Maddie both scream out "Mommy!" while looking for her in the darkened house.
* LastSecondWordSwap: When Frederick accuses Prospero of being the informant if the claims are true, he almost calls him "shit-head", but swaps out the word for something clean.
-->'''Frederick:''' "Who knows what that crazy little sh-- Sorry, honey. Who knows what that crazy little, spit-head will or won't do?"
* LonelyFuneral: The funeral of Vic, Tammy, and Freddie is only attended by Roderick, his granddaughter Lenore, Madeline, Juno, and Arthur.
* TheMole: "Informant", actually. In the court hearing two weeks ago, Auggie mentions to the court how one member of the Usher inner circle has agreed to come forward to testify against them, to Roderick's surprise and Arthur's horror. While the idea of an informant is stricken off the record, Auggie simply smirks at Roderick, reinforcing the family's paranoia about who this informant is.
* NotQuiteDead: Despite showing no vitals after the children return from Longfellow's residence, Eliza is ''still alive'', but her showing no vitals leads to her being BuriedAlive.
* OldDarkHouse: Roderick and Madeline's childhood home, in the present day, is beyond decrypted. A lot of the rooms are rotting, the wallpaper is faded and ripped, and honestly, it's a miracle that the house still stands in spite of that.
* PriceOnTheirHead: Roderick offers $50 million to the family member who cracks the case and figures out who the informant is.
* ShoutOut: During the thunderstorm, there is an Ouija board resting on the nightstand, with the planchette on top of it, alluding to Flanagan's own Film/OuijaOriginOfEvil.
* StartsWithTheirFuneral: The series begins with the funeral of Vic, Tammy, and Freddie.
* TakingYouWithMe: Eliza's final act before dying is asphyxiating William, all while wearing a ''massive'' SlasherSmile. And they both die at the same time.
* TimeJump: In the flashback sequence, we jump from 1953 to 1962, right when Roderick and Madeline reach adolescence.
* UngratefulBastard: Despite helping William for many years, he simply calls Eliza a "decent worker" who lost it and refuses to accept the children's request to convince their mother to see a doctor.
* UnwantedAssistance: As time progresses, Eliza begins to suffer SanitySlippage, to the point where she completely rejects traditional medicine and even basic assistance from a doctor, firmly believing that her faith will heal her.
* WeAllDieSomeday: When Auggie notes that Roderick simply looks at his phone when Lenore sends him a message, he says this:
-->'''Auggie (modern):''' "Day will come. She'll stop texting. They all do sooner or later."
* WouldHurtAChild: Later in life, Eliza's condition worsens to the point where she has no qualms about strangling one of her own children with lethal intent. It's only when her own children tell her that they're sorry that she snaps back to reality.
