* AbortedArc: In season two, [[spoiler: Henry Dahl appears watching Mickey's house while he and Lisa meet, presumably hoping to collect material that proves Mickey was having an intimate relationship with his client. But after that he doesn't try to blackmail Mickey, instead trying to find loopholes and eventually stealing Mickey's contract for Lisa's life rights which supersedes his own.]]

* YouMonster: Discussed and averted. [[spoiler:When Mickey confronts Trevor, revealing he has pieced together everything about how Trevor killed his wife and why, Trevor tells him, "if all that's true, you must think I'm a monster." However, Mickey does not call him a monster, instead saying he is an addict, with his high being everyone thinking he is a genius.]]

* NotSoAboveItAll: Combined with Hypocrite. In the penultimate episode of season 2, after Mickey gets a witness to plead the Fifth on the stand, the prosecutor drops an FBomb on him in chambers. The judge reprimands her for this, then does so herself.

* SpottingTheThread: In the season 2 finale, Mickey realizes something is off when he sees an old photo of [[spoiler: Lisa's ex-husband Jeff and realizes it's not the same guy he's met before. When out with his daughter in Venice Beach, he hears sounds including music to construction that makes him realize "Jeff" was calling from there. He confronts Lisa on how she refused to sell her home or even put it up for bail, as if afraid someone would find something there...like Jeff's body buried under the garden for years.]]
