* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: Rufus invokes this one in "The World's Columbian Expedition", using the voice recorder to remind Rittenhouse that there's no one else but him capable of piloting the Lifeboat. Reality Ensues in the following episode, when Mason tells Rufus that Jiya is now training to operate the Lifeboat and will eventually replace him.
* HellHotel: H. H. Holmes and his "Murder Castle" appear in "The World's Columbian Expedition". Flynn cruelly leads an unwitting Wyatt and Rufus to check in there during the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago, where they're put in danger. Lucy has to enlist the help of Harry Houdini in their rescue.
* LargeHam: Harry Houdini, as befits a stage magician. In fact, his showmanship is widely agreed within the trade to be the key reason that he was so much more successful than his equally talented brother Hardeen.
* LuredIntoATrap: Wyatt and Rufus are lured into H.H. Holmes' notorious "murder castle" by Flynn and his men to keep them from tracking down Lucy and his real goal of killing three conspirators of Rittenhouse.
* NiceGuy: Harry Houdini in "The World's Columbian Exposition". Even after being tricked by Lucy into helping Flynn break into the Rittenhouse meeting Houdini is still willing to help her escape from Flynn and rescue Wyatt and Rufus from H. H. Holmes. He's one of the most helpful people the team has dealt with in the past.
* SerialKiller: Wyatt and Rufus encounters H. H. Holmes, the first recorded American serial killer, and the man responsible for the coining of the term itself.
* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Rufus tells Mason that he refuses to work with Rittenhouse anymore, stating that, because he's the pilot, he's indispensable. In "The Murder of Jesse James", Mason responds by having Jiya trained as a "co-pilot", in reality, Rufus's replacement if he doesn't reconsider.
* TruthInTelevision: Harry Houdini is accurately shown doing his escapes behind a curtain early on his career. It wasn't until a while later that he hit on the idea that it would be more entertaining for the audience to actually see him escape, making him a household name.
