* AdaptationalHeroism: Albert Wesker in the original games was TheSociopath who wanted to wipe out the world barring a few survivors he would lord over. This Wesker does in fact love his daughters despite the strained relationship, and tries to delay the release of Joy because he knows that it'll either lead to the apocalypse or Umbrella taking over the world. [[spoiler:Subverted when we find out he's not actually the Wesker we're familiar with.]]

* BullyingADragon: [[spoiler:An already beaten Angel at Umbrella's mercy whispers in Albert's ear that he knows Jade and Billie. All this does is enrage Al and make him pick up one of the torture tools Evelyn set up for him, which he initially didn't want to use. Cue Angel [[AintTooProudToBeg pleading for him not to do so]].]]

** To start, Umbrella's ''still'' trying to profit off of the T-Virus even after seeing firsthand what it did to the first Raccoon City. And when Albert brings in a rat infected with it from the Joy, Evelyn just gives some halfhearted countermeasures.
** Billie gets infected in the first place because she opens a locked box in a laboratory containing something growling and angry even after they had gotten plenty of photos to prove Umbrella's animal testing. Sure enough, it contains a Cerberus.
** [[spoiler:Angel's BullyingADragon moment where he pushes the buttons of Albert, who has him completely at his mercy and didn't want to torture him until now.]]
** [[spoiler:To test a possible solution to the apocalypse in that they need to dock the ship and test it on some Zeroes, Jade gets impatient and decides to ''bring a Zero onboard the ship where her family and friends are''. While it initially seems to work, Bea, who Jade let into the room, saying something causes the Zero to go berserk, break its restraints, and kill Jade's pregnant friend.]]

* SchizoContinuity: It's been said that the series is not canon to the games; however, the games (up to ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil5 5]]'') are canon to the series. The BroadStrokes used to paint the lore and background meant there were many inconsistencies between the series and the games that were canon to it. This has led to the conclusion that the series is better labelled as ''Resident Evil'' InNameOnly.
