8	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cheersquadgood.jpg]]
9	[[caption-width-right:350:The main three.]]
10	----
11	* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: Trisha (Beauty), Mackenzie (Brains), and Brittnay (Brawn).
12	* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Brittnay, Mackenzie, and Trisha respectively.
13	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: All of the show's popular girls tend to be mean and bitchy in some measure, but they've slowly gotten [[CharacterDevelopment more mature and calmer as the seasons progressed]], not to mention [[TookALevelInKindness generally nicer]].
14	** In particular, the matter of cheating on a partner. In Season One, when the show was going to be a simple anthology series, Brittnay and Mackenzie treated it like just one more trivial way to be a bitch. In later seasons, it's given the appropriate weight, and treated as a huge betrayal of trust.
15	* DwindlingParty: See below, due to the various factors that lead to all the ScrewThisImOuttaHere announcements. Lampshaded, like everything else.
16	-->'''Mackenzie:''' Jesus, this squad gets smaller every day!
17	* EvenEvilHasStandards: For all their flaws and horrible actions, they are anything ''but'' bigots.
18	** Trisha is happily dating the black and genitalless Matthew Derringer (and it's implied this is in some defiance to her dad who apparently has some issue with Matthew).
19	** They don't mind that Tanner is gay, and Brittnay is good friends with his boyfriend. Brittnay also catches on pretty quick that Than is gay, and is mostly just annoyed he won't admit it.
20	** They have no problem with Deandra being an amputee, and invite her to be on their cheerleading/modeling team even after she gets prosthetic arms. They were also as horrified as the Van Burens when they accidentally ripped her arms off in the first place.
21	** When Deandra explains why she left Atchison, Brittnay and Mackenzie, while understandably quite revolted at the details, don't mock or tease Deandra, and in fact assist in telling Tanya to fuck off when she tries to use it as blackmail.
22	** When Trisha innocently declares "America first!" during their first meet up with the French models in season 5, Mackenzie and Brittnay quickly inform Trisha they are ''not'' going down that route.
23	** They, along with Deandra and the football team, react with disgust when Cameron makes [[DudeNotFunny a tasteless joke about a guy with cerebral palsy]].
24	* EvilCounterpart: To the Football Team. The cheerleaders are cruel, bitchy, and constantly engaged in some kind of conflict, either with an enemy or with each other. They also once ripped a girl's arms off in their relentless pursuit of popularity. The equally popular football team, however, are basically nice to everyone (except Than), and support each other at all times. In season 3, Tanner even gives a speech about how much he values his teammates, which is something we've never really seen Mackenzie do.
25	* FinishingEachOthersSentences: Parodied, and occasionally played straight.
26	-->'''Mackenzie:''' ''(to Cameron)'' I'm sorry, does anyone else think it's a conflict of interest to have a Van Buren announcing the winners—
27	-->'''Brittnay:''' When a Van Buren is one of the finalists?
28	-->'''Mackenzie:''' ''(who is already in a pissy mood that evening, to Brittnay)'' Don't you ''ever''. Fucking. Cut me off again, do you understand me?
29	* NiceMeanAndInBetween: We have Trisha, Ashley, [[spoiler:Trisha 2, and Saison]] (Nice), Brittnay, Mackenzie, [[spoiler:Shay]], and Jenna Darabond (Mean), and Jenna Dapananian (In-Between).
30	* SpeakInUnison: Mackenzie and Brittnay, when they're pissed. [[spoiler:("SHUT THE FUCK UP ASHLEY KATCHADOURIAN!!")]] The Trishas also do this, albeit much cheerier.
31	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
32	** [[spoiler:The team has been cut in half by Season 3. Ashley Katchadourian quit because she was TheChewToy, Jenna Darabond quit because of her evil schemes, and Jenna Dapananian finally quit because she was tired of being LockedOutOfTheLoop.]]
33	** [[spoiler:It happens again in Season 4. Brittnay quits because of Mackenzie blowing up her car, Saison quits because she wants to help Brittnay, and Shay quits from a mixture of annoyance at all the work she has to do and wanting nothing to do with Brittnay's psychotic rampage. This leaves Mackenzie as head cheerleader again, but with a squad containing her and the two Trishas.]]
34	* TheThreeFacesOfEve: Mackenzie (Wife), Brittnay (Seductress), and Trisha (Child).
35	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: They're the Tomboys to the Van Buren's Girly Girls.
36	* TownGirls: Brittnay (Butch), Mackenzie (Neither), and Trisha (Femme).
37	* VitriolicBestBuds: Despite the constant bickering between various pairs, they still genuinely care for each other.

49	Head cheerleader, homecoming queen, part-time model. Current head cheerleader of the Overland Park Cheer Squad, Mackenzie is the definition of AlphaBitch. Her actions early on in the series start the Cheerleader-Van Buren war.
50
51	Her twitter account can be found [[https://twitter.com/mpgisofficial here.]]
52	----
53	* ActionGirl: Although not at the same level as Brittnay's, Mackenzie is still shown to be a capable fighter, as seen in Episode 81 when she fights [[spoiler:Juliette Bonnet]].
54	* AlphaBitch: After all, she ''is'' one of [[TitleDrop the most popular girls in school.]] Interestingly, she was formerly BetaBitch to Shay Van Buren.
55	* AllWorkVsAllPlay: Is the All Work to Shay's All Play.
56	* AsianRudeness: Though certainly not to the extent of her mother's, despite being the AlphaBitch at her school.
57	* ArchEnemy: To Shay Van Buren, ever since Mackenzie backstabbed her in the third grade.
58	* BackstabbingTheAlphaBitch: Did so in the third grade. After Shay became partially deaf and had to go to the nurse's office, she used her absence to her advantage to steal the position of head cheerleader from her that she's kept since. From that moment on, she and Shay have been arch-enemies.
59	* BigSisterInstinct: She does seem to have a decent amount of concern when Mikayla threatens to tell everyone at their school that her little sister has cooties.
60	* ButNotTooForeign: At the very least, she has some Asian descent (implied to be Korean), but, unlike her mother, hints of her Asian side only pop up just a few times throughout the series.
61	* CassandraTruth: [[spoiler:None of the adults believe Jenna Darabond is capable of destroying public property, let alone ''an entire mall'',]] so Mackenzie's statements regarding her actions tend to fall on deaf ears.
62	* CatchPhrase: "Mackenzie Zales. Head cheerleader, homecoming queen, part time model." Doubles as a PhraseCatcher.
63	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Began as a stereotypical, shallow AlphaBitch who could sometimes be just as stupid as the rest of her friends, but gradually took many, ''many'' levels in intelligence.
64	* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler:Orchestrated the entire parent-teacher conference by blowing up Brittnay's car, knowing Brittnay would punch Jenna in the face. She also called Jenna's dad and Cameron for the parent-teacher so they would have an affair, causing him to resign from office. Finally, she recorded Jenna admitting to burning down the Atchison mall and gave it to the police as proof so Jenna could be arrested for arson. God''dayum''!]]
65	* ChildhoodFriends: With Brittnay, (formerly) Rachel, and (formerly) Shay.
66	* DisappearedDad: Episode 65 reveals that Jack, Mrs. Zales' husband, is actually Mackenzie's ''step'' father. Since she's never really mentioned her dad, it does raise the question of, where ''is'' Mackenzie's biological father?
67	* EthicalSlut: She's surprisingly promiscuous and perverted by OnlySaneMan standards, though she doesn't have sex as much as Brittnay or Cameron do.
68	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: As big of a bitch she can be, she clearly loves and cares about her mother and little sister Katelynn (whom Mackenzie is shown to be [[BigSisterInstinct quite protective of]].
69	* EvenEvilHasStandards: She is visibly horrified learning that [[spoiler: Jenna Darabond burned down the Atchison Cheer Squad's mall.]]
70	* ExtremeOmnisexual: Episode 65 reveals that she's willing to sleep with the main ''[[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Twilight]]'' boys. And not just that; with their faces on ''balloons''. Guess how she pops one of the said balloons.
71	-->'''Mackenzie:''' ''(in her video, to a balloon with Edward Cullen's face on it)'' Oh I can't wait to be a vampire so we can finally make ''love''. Oh, can't we do it now, I can't wait! I want your glistening vampire penis inside of my human vagina! Edward, I'm not afraid.
72	-->'''Shay:''' ''(to Brittnay)'' Oh God, she's gonna fuck those balloons.
73	* {{Fangirl}}: Of Jeannie Halverstad.
74	* {{Fetish}}: Episode 65 implies that she gets off to Roleplay and InterspeciesRomance.
75	* FirstNameUltimatum: Whenever Brittnay gets into more trouble than usual, Mackenzie will resort to calling her like this.
76	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Responsible Sibling to Katelynn's Foolish Sibling.
77	* FreudianExcuse: She's a bitch, to be sure, but with a mother and family life like hers, would ''you'' be the most pleasant person in the world?
78	* HairTriggerTemper: It's quite easy to piss her off, though not to the same degree as Brittnay or her (Mackenzie's) mother.
79	* HeroicHeelizationSpeech: At prom, she and Shay realize they actually should be working on maintaining friendships and being kind, before rejecting the idea and deciding that [[RevengeBeforeReason they now have a common goal of destroying Rachel Tice]].
80	* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Despite clearly witnessing Jeannie Halverstad being an incredibly foul-mouthed and nasty BadBoss, Mackenzie still thinks that she's cool. [[spoiler:At least until Episode 78, that is.]]
81	* IDidWhatIHadToDo: [[spoiler:She gives this reasoning to Brittnay when she explains that she blew up Brittnay's car.]]
82	* IdiotBall: Occasionally slips into this; up until Episode 18, she thought you couldn't be at any potential risk to ever get pregnant in water, and therefore wouldn't need to wear a condom in the pool.
83	* IGaveMyWord: [[spoiler:Back in the 3rd Grade, Mackenzie promised Brittnay that so long as they were friends she wouldn't get screwed over, and now Brittnay is justifying her rampage because Mackenzie went back on it.]]
84	* ItsAllAboutMe: Yeah, she's ''very'' selfish and self-centered. She has a tendency to equate what's good for herself to what's good for the cheer squad to justify her scheming. This bites her in Season 4, where she uses this logic to paint Brittnay as the one tearing the cheer squad apart even though she fucked Brittnay over.
85	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: The heart of gold is hidden under nine layers of bitch, of course, but she seems to care about her team (in her own way), and genuinely loves and is protective of her sister... a bit like Shay, really.
86	* KlingonPromotion: She got to be head cheerleader only because Shay was hit by a hacky sack and rendered incapacitated at the day of the auditions. Granted, she didn't kill Shay, so it's not a strict example of this trope.
87	* LikeMotherUnlikeDaughter: To Mrs. Zales, most of the time. Her mother is as loud and foul-mouthed as Brittnay (if not more), just to give you an idea.
88	* TheMillstone: Mackenzie's selfishness has frequently proven to be the biggest detriment to the squad even more so than Brittnay's rage and Trisha's ditziness. To wit, Mackenzie's lack of forethought unless it involves making herself look good has cost the squad multiple members, including [[spoiler: Jenna Darabond (who felt betrayed by Mackenzie), Jenna Dapananian (who got sick of being LockedOutOfTheLoop), Ashley Katchadourian (whose victimization was started by Jenna Darabond because of what Mackenzie did to Jenna), Brittnay (who does come back, but quit because Mackenzie blew up her car and manipulated her), Saison Marguerite (who quit because Brittnay quit), and Shay Van Buren (who quit because she was sick of all the work ''and'' because of Brittnay's rampage that Mackenzie sparked).]]
89	** Her backstabbing Shay Van Buren to become captain of the squad made them all hated enemies of the Van Buren Family.
90	** The events of the first and second season can all be traced back to how Mackenzie made out with [[spoiler: Justin Michaelson, in clear view of Jenna Darabond. This was all despite knowing how much Jenna was angsting over her unrequited feelings for Justin and the guilt of wanting him even though he was Ashley Katchadourian's boyfriend. Oh, and after Mackenzie just guilt tripped Jenna saying going after Justin would make Jenna the worst type of whore imaginable. To rub salt in the wound, right after she finished making out with Justin, Mackenzie cheerfully told Jenna this was their little secret. This is what made Jenna snap and implement her plans to destroy the squad and get Justin for herself, letting Deandra into the girls room by telling her she was Ashley, telling Shay about Mackenzie's infidelity, and burning down the Atchison mall.]]
91	** In the fourth season, [[spoiler: Brittnay's RoaringRampageOfRevenge was sparked when Mackenzie blew up her car and lied about it so Brittnay would punch Jenna Darabond. Even though Brittnay would've gladly punched Jenna of her own accord, Mackenzie wanted the sense of accomplishment from setting up such a complicated gambit and getting to gloat about it when she got Jenna arrested. Shay even calls Mackenzie out on this, saying she just had to fuck over Brittnay for the sake of making herself look good.]]
92	* MissExposition: To the point where Mark and Carlo say that she's actually the hardest character for them to write for; less jokes and more plot heaviness.
93	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In the Season 4 opener, Mackenzie has this reaction when she realizes [[spoiler: Brittnay is the one who destroyed the lockers and is going to do a lot more worse. It seems that by destroying Brittnay's car, Mackenzie went back on the promise she made in the 3rd Grade that Brittnay wouldn't be screwed over if they were friends.]]
94	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: As one of the three characters who debuted in the first episode, she's a knockoff doll from the dollar store instead of a Franchise/{{Barbie}} or Franchise/DisneyPrincess. Starting from when she first appeared in her cheer uniform, this now only applies to her head.
95	* NotSoAboveItAll: Once got drunk at a Viewer Mail panel. And yes, AlcoholInducedIdiocy came into play.
96	-->'''Brittnay:''' ''(knocks her drink out of her hand)'' It's 10 am! Goddammit!
97	* OnlySaneWoman: At least as close as it can get in her squad or Team USA; for the first, she isn't a ditz or a mentally unstable bitchy {{Tsundere}}, and for the second, [[spoiler:she's fully aware that drinking and partying a lot will come back to bite you in the ass the next day.]]
98	* PrematurelyBald: Her main issue throughout Season 2; every time she curses, she loses some hair. She overcomes this by the start of Season 3, however.
99	* ProfessionalButtKisser: Towards her idol, Jeannie Halverstad.
100	* RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Brittnay's, and her rival Shay's Reds.
101	* RevengeBeforeReason: She just [[EvilFeelsGood loves revenge way too much]].
102	* SeriousBusiness:
103	** Being prom queen.
104	** Controlling the girls' bathroom.
105	** Her idol, Jeannie Halverstad, and thus Mackenzie takes the LIJMT the most seriously among Team USA.
106	* SitcomArchEnemy: To Shay Van Buren, being her rival and all and starting this whole mess.
107	* SmallNameBigEgo: She wouldn't even be an AlphaBitch if a hackysack hadn't deafened Shay in third grade. At prom, she fully and insistently expects that she'll be named prom queen, causing friction with Brittnay. To her shock, not only is she not prom queen, she didn't even place in the running, meaning ''way'' more people voted for bitchy, hostile, hyper-aggressive Brittnay than her.
108	* SmugSnake: She loves rubbing it into Brittnay's face that she's only "co-head vice captain of the cheer squad."
109	* TheSmartGirl: For example, in Season 3, she's the only one most worried about finding a good revenge plan against Jenna Darabond.
110	* TheSpock: Well, for the most part, being the only one to try to stay focused on a plan.
111	* SuddenlyShouting: Is rather prone to this.
112	* SupportingProtagonist: Comedy-wise, the show also puts great focus on her friends in her squad, too.
113	* SurroundedByIdiots: In her cheer squad, and in Team USA.
114	* TokenEvilTeammate: Out of the three Cheer Squad members, Mackenzie has the least amount of redeeming qualities and is the one most likely to turn on her friends if the opportunity is worthwhile. While Brittnay will at least hold back her rage to the people she genuinely cares about, Mackenzie will be more blinded by her goals and be more unconcerned about how her actions negatively affect others, regardless of who they are and how close they are to her.
115	* {{Tsundere}}: Is prominently a Type B around Jeannie Halverstad, but is a Type A to pretty much everyone else.
116	* UndyingLoyalty: To Jeannie Halverstad [[spoiler: until Jeannie's betrayal]] in Season 5.
117	* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Bitchy? Check. Subject to being PrematurelyBald? Check. Constantly suffers from crap inflicted on her by Brittnay and Shay? Definitely.
118	* VerbalTic: She tends to start sentences in a ridiculously high pitched voice before lowering it. Also, she tends to stretch out "Fuck" into ''"Ffffffuck"''.
119	* VillainousBreakdown:
120	** When she has to wait for the prom queen announcement, she goes on a loud, angry rant on how ridiculous this night has been.
121	** In Episode 77, she has one after Team USA's televised HumiliationConga.
122	* VillainProtagonist: Or rather, a bitchy cheerleader protagonist.

135	----
136	* ActionGirl: Almost never the one on the receiving end of ''physical'' pain. [[spoiler: The crowning example of this trope takes place in Episode 67 when she takes on Film/TheExpendables ''and kills them all'' '''by herself'''.]]
137	* BackstabbingTheAlphaBitch: [[spoiler: Season 4's main plot seems to be Brittnay doing this to Mackenzie. After 8-and-a-half years, she's had enough of her. They reconcile in the end.]]
138	* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler:She and Deandra get kidnapped by Team France in Season 5, and it's up to Saison and Mackenzie to save them]].
139	* BatterUp: Her weapon is a metal baseball bat.
140	* TheBeard: She and Than date for some time, but on Than's side it's mainly because he keeps denying his homosexuality (he even imagines Blaine when he has anal sex with her and cries when he sees her vagina). Brittnay mainly dumps him when she tells her he has to step up and admit he's gay. Tanner literally says that she's "quite the beard", [[LiteralMinded but Than thinks he refers to his facial hair]].
141	* BerserkButton:
142	** Saison in general, but ''especially'' her VerbalTic of "How do you say...?"
143	--->"Really? Did you ''really'' just ask how to say 'menage a trois'? IT'S A FUCKING ''FRENCH'' WORD, YOU LITTLE ''BITCH''."
144	** Lying about your origin.
145	** Going back on your word.
146	* BetaBitch: Being the Co-Head Vice Captain of the Cheer Squad to Mackenzie's Head Cheerleader and all.
147	* BrattyTeenageDaughter: A stereotypical example for the most part, especially when around her mother.
148	* BreakoutCharacter: Becomes the most featured character from mid-Season 3 onward.
149	* BrutalHonesty: Will (usually) tell it like it is.
150	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Brittnay started out as a stereotypical DumbBlonde whose only qualities were anger and vapidness, but she had gradually evolved into, in the creators' words, a lot smarter, more independent "hardened diamond of hell".
151	* ChildhoodFriends: With Mackenzie, (formerly) Rachel, and (formerly) Shay.
152	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Surprisingly, if some of her blogs on the MPGIS app are to go by any indication.
153	-->(next to a doodle) ''Me as a duck feeding this dirtbag teacher some poison.''
154	-->''I'm genetically engineered to be compatible with plastics.''
155	** She attempts to bring bacon with her to France because she wanted to [[{{Troll}} "fuck with the bomb dogs"]], nine needles filled with Botox because she thinks that "the toxins in the French air will ruin her fucking pores", and a shuriken and ''a human skull'' because she claimed that they were part of her ex-mercenary cheerleader uniform. The TSA is understandably puzzled.
156	* DaddysGirl: Implied during a phone call with her Mom in Episode 25, and an episode of ''The Trisha Show''. After all, Brittnay says that she (Brittnay) is "his fucking lovely daughter".
157	* DeadpanSnarker: Very much so. She's not too far behind Bridget and Deandra in terms of sarcasm.
158	* {{Deuteragonist}}: In the first season, she shares this role with Shay, but since then, she's been the second most prominent character. In Season 4 only, the roles with her and Mackenzie are switched.
159	* DumbassNoMore: Becomes smarter and more independent after her debut in Episode 2.
160	* DumbBlonde: A tad, and is especially prominent in Episode 2.
161	* EmbarrassingDampSheets: In Episode 50, [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents her mother]] mentions that she still used to [[PottyFailure wet the bed]] at the age of three; Brittnay immediately stops her mother from revealing any more of the childhood story.
162	* EnfantTerrible: When she was a little kid. After befriending the group in the Third Grade, however, she got better. [[BrattyHalfPint Well, a little.]]
163	-->'''Kid Shay:''' Do you think anyone will notice I'm bald?
164	-->'''Kid Mackenzie:''' Mmm...no.
165	-->'''Kid Rachel:''' Not at all.
166	-->'''[[MouthyKid Kid Brittnay]]:''' [[DeadpanSnarker You're fucking kidding, right?]]
167	-->'''Kid Mackenzie:''' ''[[FirstNameUltimatum Brittnay!]]'' Jesus Christ.
168	* EthicalSlut: She gives out hand jobs and anal sex, but she's saving her "vag-inity" for someone special. [[ExactWords Technically fits the description of virginity.]]
169	* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Despite treating [[PushoverParents her own mother]] like garbage, she's implied to be a DaddysGirl.
170	* EvilCostumeSwitch: [[spoiler:After Mackenzie betrays her in the Season 3 finale, Brittnay leaves the cheer squad and becomes a "mercenary cheerleader", complete with a black cheerleader dress with a SkeletonMotif on it]].
171	* FagHag: Seems to be becoming one for Tristan. [[spoiler: However, there have been some hints that she may not be entirely straight, non-canon or not.]]
172	* {{Fangirl}}: For ''{{Series/Glee}}''. [[CharacterizationMarchesOn However, this is eventually forgotten about as the years go on.]]
173	* FatalFlaw: Wrath; it comes back to bite her mid-Season 3.
174	* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: While obviously into traditionally girly things like fashion, the color pink, and men, she also enjoys fights, cursing, utilizing weapons, and chooses to drink beer at a party in Episode 76.
175	* HairTriggerTemper: Like you read about. Capable of violence against anyone and anything.
176	* HangoverSensitivity: To sound, as seen in Episode 77.
177	* HeroicComedicSociopath: Her type of bitchiness is almost always PlayedForLaughs.
178	* HiredGuns: "Brittnay Matthews: Mercenary Cheerleader", when she's a free agent in Season 4 [[spoiler:after leaving the Cheer Squad.]]
179	* HotBlooded: Once again, like you read about.
180	* InsultOfEndearment: She and Tristan playfully insult each other all the time, but are incredibly close friends.
181	* InformedDeformity: A rare one involving gait instead of physical appearance, but Brittnay is apparently completely graceless: Jeannie compares her walk on the catwalk to "a baby giraffe trying to lick its own asshole", despite the fact that, thanks to the stop-motion nature of the series, Brittnay's "walk" looked just like everyone else's.
182	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: The heart of gold is ''deep'' under her bitchy temper. Is good friends with those she sees as genuinely nice (Trisha, Amberlynn, and Tristan).
183	* LadySwearsALot: Even more than everybody else, if you take count throughout the series thus far.
184	* LetMeAtHim: She has quite a temper and often has to be reined in by the others. It's practically a RunningGag that Brittnay will try to throw herself at someone to beat the shit out of them, only for Mackenzie and/or Trisha to grab her and hold her back.
185	-->'''Mackenzie:''' ''[dragging Brittnay away from Saison]'' IT'S NOT WORTH IT, BRITT!
186	* LikeMotherUnlikeDaughter: To Veronica, most of the time; her mother is quite reserved, and Brittnay, well...
187	* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Platonic version; the Masculine Girl to [[CampGay Tristan's]] Feminine Boy.
188	* TheMcCoy: Prefers to act on her emotions.
189	* OnceDoneNeverForgotten:
190	** Second-rate handjobs.
191	** To her, Rachel Tice eating a roly-poly in the "goddamn third grade". She's always one to mention it directly at her face.
192	* OneWomanArmy: [[spoiler: In episode 67, she outfights and kills an entire squad of mercenary cheerleaders that Mackenzie sent after to retrieve a video, out of self-defense.]]
193	* PrankCall: Does one in "Judy & Red in the Morning" under the name of "Witney Matthews" along with a fake calm-sounding voice, until cussing them out shortly afterwards and abruptly hangs up.
194	* ProperlyParanoid: She does not trust Deandra in Season 1, though Mackenzie and Trisha claims that she doesn't trust anybody, Deandra is actually PlayingBothSides.
195	* PsychoForHire: Parodied in Season 4 as [[spoiler:"the mercenary cheerleader"]].
196	* ReallyGetsAround: So much so that when Trisha learns someone is pregnant, she immediately assumes it's Brittnay. Mackenzie also makes that conclusion.
197	* RecklessSidekick: To Mackenzie.
198	* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Mackenzie's and Trisha's Blues, being the loudest and most HotBlooded of the three.
199	* RevengeBeforeReason: She just [[EvilFeelsGood loves revenge way too much]], to the point that she, unlike Mackenzie, [[{{Determinator}} will stop at nothing to achieve it the very INSTANT she wants it.]]
200	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Pulls this on the possibility of having her own TV show... under the condition that she couldn't curse and make references to sex.
201	* SeriesMascot: During and especially after Season 4, she has apparently become this for [=MPGiS=] as a whole.
202	* SeriousBusiness: ''Series/GossipGirl'' is ''not'' better than ''{{Series/Glee}}''!
203	* SitcomArchEnemy: To [[ReallyGetsAround Cameron Van Buren]] and Saison Marguerite, though the former is more argumentative than the latter ever will be.
204	* SmugSnake: Maybe even moreso than Mackenzie.
205	* SpoiledBrat: Yells at her mom about the Nissan Leaf she bought her after [[spoiler:Mackenzie]] had blown up her previous car, and constantly tells her to buy things for her.
206	* TheStarscream: Though this has been downplayed, and then it's taken to an all-time low in Season 4.
207	* SweetTooth: On her packing list to France, she puts Skittles as the only food item on there among her list of beauty products.
208	* TechnicalVirgin: She's saving herself for the right man... by only giving ([[RunningGag second-rate]]) handjobs and having anal sex.
209	* {{Tsundere}}: An extreme Type A; she saves the Dere side for people she genuinely cares about.
210	* UnstoppableRage: Once she starts beating someone up, it's unlikely for her to stop anytime soon.
211	* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Bitchy? Hell yes. SurroundedByIdiots, just like Mackenzie? Yeah...
212	* VillainProtagonist: Is handed this role in Season 4 only.
213	* WhatTheHellHero: She is legitimately distressed that [[spoiler: Mackenzie blew up her car and manipulated her into punching Jenna Darabond. And it seems Brittnay has planned her own revenge on Mackenzie come Season 4.]]

219	->''"DO YOU KNOW WHAT THESE ARE, ASHLEY KATCHADOURIAN? THESE ARE A LITTLE GIRLS ARMS. A LITTLE GIRL WITH DREAMS, WITH LEGS. WITH A HEAD."''
220
221	->'''Voiced by:''' Garrett Mendez
222
223	The nicest member of the Cheer Squad, something of a ditz, and NOT someone to underestimate.
224
225	Her Instagram page can be found [[https://www.instagram.com/mpgisofficial here]].
226	----
227	* AmbiguouslyBrown: She's a bit darker skinned than some people. Coincidentally, this is also justified as she has an Italian surname, making her ''somewhat'' ethnic.
228	* ArchEnemy: At this point, Ashley Katchadourian. Ashley seems to be the only person whom Trisha can be naturally and intentionally nasty towards on a regular basis. {{Subverted}} as of the beginning of Season Three, when she finds out poor Ashley was simply caught in the crossfire between other feuding parties, and was more or less dragged into it without her knowledge, at which point Trisha feels terrible and stands up for Ashley, telling the others to leave her be.
229	* AudienceSurrogate: In episode 31, she's the one to Lampshade how everything that's happened in the show so far is finally making sense.
230	* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Among Mackenzie and Brittnay, as confirmed in a livestream.
231	* BewareTheNiceOnes: She can be kind of bitchy if she's up to it. [[spoiler: Then episode 70 has Shay Van Buren learn this the hard way when Trisha completely destroys her popularity thanks to a video of Shay going on a [[InVinoVeritas drunken rant.]]]]
232	* BirdsOfAFeather: With Trisha 2, big time. They basically share the same braincell.
233	* BookDumb: It's clear she's not going to be class valedictorian anytime soon, but she ''does'' have knowledge in certain areas -- cheerleading, paperwork, cameras, etc.
234	* BrainlessBeauty: To quote Matthew Derringer from Episode 46: [[BeYourself "My baby doesn't need to worry about spelling good when she spends so much time looking good."]]
235	* BreakoutCharacter: She received her own spin-off, "The Trisha Show," with Atchison's Trisha as co-host. She, along with Deandra [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl9E5wqQP1g also announced the nominees]] for Best Lifestyle Series awards at the Streamys Awards.
236	* BunnyEarsLawyer: She's definitely rather flighty and ditsy, but when it comes to knowledge the various rules and regulations associated with Overland Park's social ladder? Trisha can't be topped.
237	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: She's a lot bitchier than normal in the first episode, with no real reason behind it, unlike later episodes where she bitches out [[spoiler:Ashley Katchadourian]], who pretty much deserves it. [[spoiler: Except not really]].
238	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Trisha's clearly on her own planet half the time.
239	-->'''Trisha:''' Um, I’m sorry, if we were meant to fly, we would’ve been born with wings. Think about it.
240	* CreepyMonotone: At least in the first episode, though it isn't exactly creepy until she talks about someone's dad dying. [[VocalEvolution She eventually drops the monotone part in her voice, though.]]
241	* DatingWhatDaddyHates: Implied to be the case with Matthew Derringer ("Oh, Dad, you were so wrong."). Her mom, however, seems to like Matthew just fine.
242	* TheDitz: She's not terribly bright, though she has more going on than you'd think.
243	* DumbIsGood: Nicest girl among the cast, with the exceptions of Amberlynn and Trisha 2.
244	* FieryRedhead: Averted most of the time, but played straight when she ''really'' gets mad.
245	* {{Flanderization}}: Sure, she made somewhat obvious statements in earlier episodes, but she wasn't the airhead that later episodes show her as.
246	--> '''Trisha:''' OK, who the fuck is watching the door? How did a nine-year-old get in here?
247	* {{Foil}}: To Trisha 2. Trisha is (usually) sweet, somewhat ditzy but is smarter than she looks and has her own skill set that comes in handy more often than you'd think. Trisha 2? Sweet, but genuinely an idiot.
248	* FriendlyEnemy: She's made friends with Mikayla Van Buren and the Atchison cheer squad's Trisha, and no one really has a problem with this.
249	* GeniusDitz:
250	** She's not very book smart and misunderstands sarcasm, but when it comes to Cheer Squad regulations she's really on the ball.
251	** As of Episode 63, it's also revealed that she knows a thing or two about cameras.
252	* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Like the rest of the cheer squad, she is girly, but is into superhero stuff. She also knows quite a bit about tech and AV stuff, which is quite unusual for a cheerleader.
253	* TheHeart: She's pretty much the only member of the Squad who can get along with everybody else, and in the fourth season [[spoiler: she's the only one who can get Brittnay and Mackenzie to actually apologize to one another.]] This is also because she legitimately cares about her teammates and has yet to actually do anything to hurt them.
254	* HiddenDepths: In the Season 4 finale, she tells Brittnay and Mackenzie that she joined the cheer squad because they made her believe in something -- specifically, they made her believe that she was awesome. This implies Trisha may have had some self-esteem issues in the past, which does make sense when you consider how easily she's swayed by Mackenzie and Brittnay's opinions.
255	* KarmicProtection: [[spoiler: She's being spared by Brittnay because Brittnay considers her a true friend as Trisha has never done anything to hurt her.]]
256	* TheKirk: Being the only one who can settle conflicts between Mackenzie and Brittnay.
257	* LaughingMad: Does this in Episode 71 when Stewardess Ashley Katchadourian asks her to--wait for it--watch the emergency exit door. [[spoiler:And then she abruptly cuts herself off and pleasantly agrees.]]
258	* LikeMotherLikeDaughter: With Trish. They're ''just'' alike.
259	* LovableAlphaBitch: She definitely plays girl politics with the others, and is capable of genuine nastiness if she's pissed off enough, but for the most part is a good-natured ditz, rather than outright ''mean''.
260	* MoralityPet: To Brittnay, Mackenzie, and Mikayla; none of them are very nice people, but they ''do'' care for Trisha, very, very much.
261	* MotorMouth: When listing off rules and policies having to do with cheer squad business.
262	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler: To discovering Ashley Katchadourian was ''not'' in charge of the door. Of course, Trisha's only form of apologizing was saying "No hard feelings" when she saw Ashley for the first time after prom. In episode 31 she ''really'' has this moment when she learns about Jenna Darabond's evil plan and awkwardly motions to Ashley. She attempts to make up for her behavior by asking Mackenzie and the others to leave Ashley alone.]]
263	* NiceGirl: The only time she ever does anything truly mean-spirited is when she [[spoiler:attacks Ashley on prom night]] and [[spoiler: destroy's Shay Van Buren's popularity]].
264	* NiceToTheWaiter: She's on friendly terms with the school janitor, to the point of being on a first-name basis.
265	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: As one of the three characters who debuted in the first episode, she's a knockoff doll from the dollar store instead of a Franchise/{{Barbie}} or Franchise/DisneyPrincess. Starting from when she first appeared in her cheer uniform, this now only applies to her head.
266	* NotSoHarmless: As Ashley Katchadourian and [[spoiler: Shay Van Buren]] have learned.
267	* ObstructiveBureaucrat: In a sense. She apparently is in charge of all formal paperwork for the Cheer Squad.
268	* OddFriendship: Seems to have formed a IntergenerationalFriendship with Mikayla Van Buren.
269	* OfficialCouple: With Matthew Derringer.
270	* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Whenever she slips out of her usual laid back tone, prepare for some shit to go down.
271	* PopCulturedBadass: Makes frequent references to movies whenever she's verbally destroying someone. Creator/BenAffleck, anyone?
272	* RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Trisha 2's (NOTE: The differences are as minor as the ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead'' example.) and Brittnay's Reds, and the Red to Mackenzie's Blue.
273	* SeriousBusiness: She's "the cheer squad scheduling council" and she takes this job ''very'' seriously.
274	* ScheduleFanatic: Normally, Trisha's a bit of TheDitz, but when it comes to the cheer squad's schedule, she's incredibly thorough and competent.
275	* SuperDrowningSkills: Even with water wings... in the shallow end... despite being a rather tall teenage girl.
276	* SkewedPriorities: Prone to this sometimes.
277	* StarCrossedLovers: Platonic(?) example; she and Trisha 2 developed a friendship despite being in feuding cheer squads.
278	* StillBelievesInSanta: As shown in episode 38, Trisha (who is a high schooler) still believes in Santa.
279	-->'''Trisha:''' Well, hey, at least you get to meet Santa, right? I mean, the man himself.\
280	'''Bridget:''' Wait. You still believe in Santa?\
281	'''Trisha:''' Well, I haven't been nice all year for nothing.\
282	'''Bridget:''' So your parents never told you that he wasn't real?\
283	'''Trisha''': Oh...they try to tell me every year. But every year, I come back, and look who's here! So who's got egg on their face now?!
284	* TokenGoodTeammate: Kind to others and keen on maintaining friendships. Also took [[spoiler:Deandra's loss of arms]] rather personally.
285	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Tomboy to Trisha 2's Girly Girl; Trisha prefers superheroes, while Trisha 2 is far more of a TheIngenue.
286	* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. Ashley has learnt the hard way to ''never'' get on Trisha's bad side...
287	* UndyingLoyalty: She has this to Brittnay ''and'' Mackenzie, which causes tension in Season Four.
288	* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Will have a pretty nasty panic attack if she goes flying.
289	* {{Womanchild}}: It's pretty clear she hasn't matured much since elementary school.

301	----
302	* ArchEnemy: At this point it's pretty clear she's Trisha's.
303	* BackstabbingTheAlphaBitch: [[spoiler: Planning it for a while. Officially backstabbed when it came to cheer nationals as she joined the Atchison High cheer squad so her own squad would be unable to compete now that there are only five of them.]]
304	* BadassLongcoat: Her PaperThinDisguise ''at best'', plus CoolShades.
305	* BadLiar: Oh so very much. She's seriously lucky that none of her teammates see through her revenge scheme so much she's bad at hiding it.
306	* BreakoutCharacter: Since she got involved with the Atchison High cheer squad, there have been episodes where in which give her an extensive amount of screen time.
307	* BreakTheCutie: Trisha gives her a harsh ReasonYouSuckSpeech ([[spoiler:lashing at her for not watching the bathroom door and blaming Deandra's dismemberment of her arms on her]]) that leaves her running off in tears. It gets worse from there when Brittnay then makes out with her boyfriend ''in front of her'' and it turns out that [[spoiler:she really wasn't in charge of the door after all, as it was all a trick played by Jenna Darabond to mess with the cheer squad and Ashley was nothing but an UnwittingPawn]].
308	* BrokenBird: She's been suffering from so much anxiety that her mom's been sneaking medication into her food and her doctor's told her she has ulcers.
309	* ButtMonkey: Cemented in episode 22 when Deandra tosses her across the mall as a demonstration of her robot arm's strength, followed by Ashley's rather pathetic pleas for someone to help her going unheard.
310	* ConspicuousTrenchcoat: When she plans her revenge against the cheer squad, she's seen wearing sunglasses and a trenchcoat to look sneaky.
311	* CoolBigSis: Implied to be one towards her little sister Brooklyn, who looks up to her and [[LittleSisterInstinct constantly looks out for her well-being.]]
312	* CowardlyLion: Interned as a ''flight attendant'', for crying out loud!
313	* DemotedToExtra: Invoked in-universe when she asks to be left out of the current conflict after all she's gone through. However, she has a pretty prominent role in episode 58.
314	* DisproportionateRetribution: [[spoiler:Getting completely annihilated by Trisha's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and having her boyfriend make out with Brittnay on prom night all in response to something she wasn't responsible for.]]
315	* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Episode 15 implies Ashley is planning on getting revenge for what Trisha and the others did to her.]]
316	* TheGhost: Until episode 11.
317	* MeaningfulName: Her last name sounds like "catch a door."
318	* {{Misblamed}}: [[spoiler: Jenna Darabond was supposed to be watching the bathroom door, but Deandra said it was Ashley that let her in, so Trisha blamed her.]]
319	* TheMole: [[spoiler:At least in Season 2.]]
320	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: She gets blamed for Deandra's maiming because she wasn't watching the door when she was supposed to, though it turns out she really wasn't in charge at all.]]
321	* OneHeadShorter: Than everyone expect the children, like Rachel, though Ashley is ''slightly'' taller than Rachel.
322	* RunningGag: Deandra mistaking her for a (tiny) flasher. It's continually brought up when recalling what happened several weeks prior to cheer nationals.
323	* SexyStewardess: Downplayed in Season 5; she just looks even more damn adorable with that professional outfit on.
324	* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: In Episode 21. And she is ''terrible'' at it. Brittnay lampshades it immediately.
325	* ThrowTheDogABone: In Season 5, Ashley reappears and is shown to be a happy in her new job as a stewardess, which is a well-deserved break after the shit she was put through in the first three seasons.
326	* TrueNeutral: [[invoked]] Ashley Katchadourian returns in Episode 31 but is not interested with having to do with anything as of late and is just set on doing her own thing, steering away from the [[InsistentTerminology shitstorm]] as much as possible. Trisha acknowledges her on that path.
327	* UnprovokedPervertPayback: Deandra tosses her in the Oak Park Mall foutain because she thought she was a "tiny flasher" [[SexyCoatFlashing due to her trenchcoat.]] But it was just a PaperThinDisguise.
328	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: She's responsible for the entire series starting off all because she wasn't watching the door to the girls bathroom. [[spoiler: Though it turns out she wasn't responsible for watching the door.]]
329	* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler: To Jenna Darabond. Not only did she pretend to be her, thus blaming her for letting Deandra in the bathroom and causing the ''ENTIRE'' events of the first two seasons, it also pushed Ashley to betray the cheer squad at her turn and join Atchison, which is exactly what Jenna wanted. When Ashley learns the truth, she's devastated to say the least]].
330	* UsedToBeASweetKid: She didn't sound anything beyond conniving and was quite timid when she was first seen. But after Trisha lashes out on her for [[spoiler: leaving the door unguarded which lead to Deandra getting her arms ripped off]], she's been bitter ever since. She didn't even forgive Trisha after apologizing to her.
331	** However, she [[spoiler: gives a sweet and heartfelt speech about being free to like the things you like regardless if people think it's popular or not and inspires others to follow her example.]]
332	--->'''Ashley:''' [[spoiler: Guys, I've got an idea, just hear me out. Maybe we should just like whatever it is we like. And if other people start liking it too, it's not bad. In fact, it probably means that whatever it is we like, is pretty good. Only now we have people we can share it with. And if nobody else likes it, well that's okay too. Because it makes us happy.]]
333	--->'''Connor:''' [[spoiler: Whoa. You are blowing my mind, Ashley Katchadourian.]]
334	--->'''Amberlynn:''' [[spoiler: [[ThrowTheDogABone So small, yet so wise.]]]]
335	* VocalDissonance: She's quite a small girl, yet she has the deepest (natural) female voice among the cast.
336	* WalkingSpoiler: All that white, for Pete's sakes. It only applies if you're still new to the show and you've decided to watch the very first episode, as a good start for the more eventful things to come.

346	[[BrickJoke She's been absent because her dad has been sick a lot.]] As such, she's completely out of the loop regarding what's been going on at Overland Park.
347	----
348	* AddledAddict: PlayedForLaughs (because StonersAreFunny), but Rachel and Judith show concern over her use multiple drugs use and tell her to get some help.
349	* AffablyEvil: "Evil" is still a big word in Jenna's case. Even though she [[spoiler:''did'' quit the cheer squad for Jenna Darabond's {{hipster}} clique]], she's still friendly, mostly confused most of the time, and is ''[[StonersAreFunny hilarious]]'' [[StonersAreFunny when high]] and all she wants to do is make out with someone.
350	* AscendedExtra: She has a more prominent role in both Season 3 (where she's [[spoiler:in Jenna Darabond's {{hipster}} clique]], and in Season 4 as Deandra's music manager.
351	* BreastAttack: [[WouldHitAGirl Courtesy of]] [[{{Jerkass}} Connor Devernon.]]
352	* BrickJoke: In the first episode Trisha wondered if Jenna Darabond's dad was sick or died, then realized she was getting her confused with Jenna Dapananian. As it turns out, this Jenna's dad was the sick one.
353	* CatchPhrase: "Do you wanna make out?"
354	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: She started as someone who spent her time expressing annoyance that she has no idea what is going on, but by the third and fourth seasons she's now someone who ''really'' wants to make out while also getting extremely high.
355	* ComedicUnderwearExposure: When she gets high for the first time on Ecstasy brownies, she strips down to her underwear, puts her clothes on her head and runs around yelling [[Music/LilJon "TURN DOWN FOR WHAT?!"]].
356	* CuddleBug: When high.
357	* DeadpanSnarker: How she gets by when commenting on things nobody ever explained to her about.
358	* FieryRedhead: Played with as her hair is dyed red, but she expresses a lot of frustration about being left out in the dark on what's happening in Overland Park.
359	* TheGhost: Until episode 21.
360	* {{Hipster}}: [[spoiler:Quits the cheer team and joins Jenna Darabond's clique of hipsters to overthrow the popular kids in Overland Park High]].
361	* IntoxicationEnsues: She eats brownies passed at the Hipchellastockalooza concert, despite knowing they ''were'' probably filled with drugs, and she becomes so high she spurs nonsense and has to be looked after by Rachel and Judith.
362	* KissingUnderTheInfluence: What Jenna ''actually'' '''''WANTS'''''!
363	* LockedOutOfTheLoop: No one seems willing to fill her in on what's been going on at Overland Park.
364	* LovableSexManiac: Especially if high.
365	* MinionWithAnFInEvil: When she's [[spoiler:Jenna Darabond's lackey in her clique]].
366	* MusicIsPolitics: Parodied. When managing Deandra's career, Jenna takes this ''VERY'' seriously. She's even more intense considering she takes drugs while doing it.
367	* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: When she gets high, where she glomps unto Judith.
368	* PlanetOfSteves: Just like the Trishas, she and Jenna Darabond have the same first names (as well as the same initials), and are even friends.
369	* ProfessionalButtKisser: As Deandra's music manager, ''especially'' after Deandra's fame goes to her head.
370	* PutOnABus: She doesn't appear in Season 5, despite Judith and Rachel telling her she has a serious drug use problem. Justified as she's still in Overland Park while the main conflict happens in France.
371	* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Jenna Darabond's Blue.
372	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
373	** At the end up episode 30, probably because she's tired of no one telling her what's going on.
374	** Was one of three girls who hightailed it out of the cafeteria when [[spoiler: Saison's water broke.]]
375	* SeriousBusiness: Being the manager to Deandra's singing career.
376	* ShipTease: With Judith Dinsmore. Jenna gets ''really'' in Judith's personal space when she's high, and earlier when she later complains she has no one to make out with, she and Judith stare at each other for a moment before looking away bashfully.
377	* TheStoner: Following the end of the third season, it seems she's gotten addicted to drugs as a byproduct of inhaling too much secondhand marijuana smoke and eating brownies filled with Ecstasy.
378	* StonersAreFunny: Her drugged up antics in Season 3 and 4 are a ''huge'' source of humor.
379	* ThrowTheDogABone: After being denied of making out with someone for two seasons, she finally makes out with [[spoiler:Terry Doleman, the Pizza Street manager]].
380	* ToxicFriendInfluence: Towards Deandra in Season 4, as she enables Deandra's [[AcquiredSituationalNarcissism diva]] and AlphaBitch behavior. Although to be fair, it is mainly due to Jenna's severe drug use, which has drastic changes in her behavior.
381	* UndiscriminatingAddict: Jenna has been known to take weed, Ecstasy and later cocaine in Season 4.
382	* UnseenNoMore: She remained unseen despite being name-dropped as early as the ''first episode'', but finally appears in Episode 21 during cheer practice and becomes part of the supporting cast from then on.
383	* YesMan: To Deandra in Season 4 after she becomes a famous singer.

395	* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Depending whether she deserved to be stabbed to death by Tanya Berkowitz for burning down the mall and considering everything she did that kick started certain events that had gone on since the very first season or it's a case of DisproportionateRetribution (seriously, getting her sent to jail thanks to Mackenzie's plan was adequate enough), she had it coming]].
396	** [[spoiler: Wound up being a case of DeathIsCheap in Episode 67, [[BackForTheDead at least temporarily...]]]]
397	* AxCrazy: [[spoiler: She burnt down the Atchison Mall and seemingly blew up Brittnay's car.]]
398	* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler: She survived her stabbing, but was killed for good when the Mercenary Cheerleaders crashed their car into her operating room.]]
399	* BitchInSheepsClothing: She comes off as sweet and kind around adults, but is a conniving sociopath.
400	* ButNotTooBi: Jenna identifies as bisexual, but she's only seen flirting and kissing men, even rejecting Jenna Dapananian's advances.
401	* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler: Her first actual appearance has her watching the Overland Park squad through a pair of binoculars, begrudgingly conceding that Mackenzie wins this round but that she'll have something else in store. It's implied (and later confirmed) that she had something to do with the feud between the Overland Park and Atchison Cheer Squads, if not everything else that's been going on since the first episode.]]
402	** [[spoiler: Episode 31 made it all clear that she had something to do with everything that's been going on, from Deandra being let in to the bathroom up to Cheer Nationals. Talk about an evil plan.]]
403	* ClingyJealousGirl: [[spoiler: Why she planned on messing with the cheer squad in the first place. When she saw Ashley kissing Justin and then Mackenzie shortly after, she went on with the plan that would start it all and in first doing, introduces herself as "Ashley Katchadourian" to Deandra after letting her in the bathroom. It went further when she saw that Justin made out with Brittnay.]]
404	* DaddysGirl: Definitely. She acts like a sweet little girl around her father, even still calling him "daddy" despite being 17.
405	* DaddysLittleVillain: [[spoiler: When she speaks to her father on the phone, she casually mentions that she's planning revenge. Given that her father is a senator, this is not very surprising.]]
406	* DepravedBisexual: She identifies as bisexual, but she's clearly not a benevolent one.
407	* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler: Subverted. She initially manages to survive her stabbing in a critical state. [[TemptingFate Just as the doctors are conversing how she'll likely make it]], the mercenaries Mackenzie hired crash through the wall and fatally run her over.]]
408	* DisproportionateRetribution: [[spoiler: Her schemes have included burning down a shopping mall just to get Tanya Berkowitz involved, and her form of retaliation against the cheerleaders invading hipster space was to blow up Brittnay's car. Subverted in the season finale when it turns out she really didn’t do it.]]
409	* DroppedABridgeOnHer: [[spoiler:More like ''an entire car''. Just when you think she's survived her murder attempt by Tanya Berkowitz's hands, Film/TheExpendables happen]].
410	* EntitledBitch: [[spoiler:She basically cheats on Justin with Than to manipulate the latter into doing what she wants, and when Justin confronts her about it, she expects him to buy her "you're the one I actually love" bullshit]].
411	* EntitledToHaveYou: [[spoiler:Towards Justin. From the get-go she felt like she was the only one who had the right to date him. While she was a little jealous of Ashley being his girlfriend, she decided to turn against the cheer squad the second Mackenzie (and later Brittnay) made out with him. Justin even calls her out on it later and dumps her]].
412	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: After only being mentioned for thirty episodes, when she finally appears, [[spoiler: she's spying on the Overland Park cheerleaders through binoculars and tells her dad she's planning "a little revenge."]]
413	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler: As evil and two-faced as she is, Jenna [[DaddysGirl clearly loves her father.]] When he leaves her and his mom for Cameron (which means she's not gonna get bailed out of jail for her crimes), she's clearly broken up to have been given up on by her father]].
