* JerkassWoobie: Both aspects of this trope are on full display for Constantine in this episode. On the one hand, he's unnecessarily blunt with Mick, expresses casual racism towards the Irish and FantasticRacism towards shapeshifters, and permanently removes Charlie's powers in a blatant KickTheDog moment. On the other, his bleak childhood is brought up (his mother died in childbirth, while his father blamed and abused him for it), and whatever's coming for him is bad enough that Constantine thinks ''averting his entire existence'' is a better option.

* DesignatedHero: Except for Ray, the Legends ''really'' don't come off very well in this episode. Mick and Constantine are needlessly belligerent with one another, Sara assaults royal staff and intimidates a dog walker to help Ray [[ItMakesSenseInContext steal one of Queen Elizabeth's corgis]], and the team spend quite a bit of time making fun of Ray, who gets more respect from Charlie, whom he's only just met, than from his closest friends. By the end of the episode, the team needs to be shamed into backing off from sending Charlie, who hasn't done any intentional damage, straight to Hell (which is bad in and of itself, as Charlie initially assumed that they were just going to put her back in the mystical prison she got out of when Mallus escaped). Charlie being sympathetic and the Legends not being right to send her to Hell are a plot point, but the team still comes across as worse than was probably intended. On top of that, Constantine ''permanently'' destroys her ability to shapeshift without a second thought, or a second's remorse later. (Mind you, ''he'' was ''never'' a squeaky clean character.)
