The Socialite
Alyssa Barlow
Cause of Death: Poisoning
- Accidental Murder: As much of an unrepentant bitch as she was about it, she is correct that the deaths of the four kids was accidental. She doesn't have much of a leg to stand on as the crash happened because she was driving while wasted, but still...
- Asshole Victim: A spoiled Rich Bitch who ended up killing four children in a car crash and got away with it scot free.

The Jock
Jeremias Köler
Cause of Death: Chemical burns via battery acid in energy drink
- Asshole Victim: A cruel and vain Jerk Jock who treats most everyone, especially fat people, like they're less than human.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: As much of an insufferable asswipe as he was, having both your face and throat burned with battery acid is not a good way to die.
- Dumb Muscle: He never gave a rat's ass towards his education and basically coasted through his life. This resulted in a man struggling with things like some basic math, and a near pitiful reading level.
- Hate Sink: Jeremias was a shallow, cruel, stupid douchebag in life that treated everyone who wasn't beautiful like him like dirt. When some positive qualities were talked about him after his death, like the fact that he never raped anyone or hurt anyone based on their race, Jonas points out that those are "bars low enough to slip on".
- Lean and Mean: Jeremias has a lean muscular structure from constantly working out and not one of those muscles has a shred of kindness in them.
The Divorce Lawyer
Lars Dahlquist
Cause of death: Shark attack
- Amoral Attorney: A slick-talking creep willing to do anything for his clients.
- Pre-Mortem One-Liner: He gets sent a text with one before his killer strikes him.You know the joke about the shark and the lawyer?
Professional courtesy won't save you now.
"Gill"
Gillian "Gill" Moreno
Cause of Death: Blast injuries via sabotaged pirate's cannon
Colonel Angus
Andrew Knox/"Colonel Angus"
Cause of Death: Stab wound to the heart
- Asshole Victim: Abusing porn actresses, sabotaging his rivals' businesses, abusing his son... yeah, not much to love about the guy.
- Non-Indicative Name: Brandon reveals that despite the punny name, he refused to go down on women.
Targets of the Galloway Motel
Mia Cherry, Dr. Arvin Anholts, Harris Sullivan, Phillip Weiss, Liam McFarland
Causes of Death: Fall from hotel balcony (Mia), Multiple stab wounds to the abdomen (Arvin), Bullet wound to the back with a .22 pistol (Harris), blunt force trauma via lead pipe (Phillip), run over with a car (Liam)
Tropes that apply to the victims as a whole
- Asshole Victim: Each of the targets are this, to varying degrees:
- Mia was not only sleeping with her sister's husband, but doing so even after her sister was suffering from breast cancer.
- Dr. Anholts was willing to cut off not only the funding to his son-in-law's passion project, but to his own daughter's until she found someone more worthy in his eyes.
- Harris blackmailed men for money and favors, and blackmailed women into money and sexual favors.
- Phillip was trying to run a business owner out of his store so his own screwup of a son could have it.
- Liam was a rather crude and annoying person, keeping a painting he didn't even want just so his rival couldn't have it, but it's certainly much less deserving of being murdered.
Tropes that apply to Mia
- A Deadly Affair: Mia was killed as a result of having an affair with her brother-in-law.
- Disney Villain Death: Mia was thrown off a 20th floor balcony to her death.
- Undignified Death: Mia's ghost points out that she never envisioned she'd die nude in bondage gear.
Tropes that apply to Arvin
- Obnoxious In-Laws: Arvin made it clear he never liked Tommy because an artist just wasn't good enough for him. Anholts actually says "his daugther", but Tommy picks up on the subtext.
Tropes that apply to Harris
Tropes that apply to Phillip
- Pipe Pain: Phillip met his maker when his killer knocked in his head with an old lead pipe.
Tropes that apply to Liam
- Car Fu: Liam died on the receiving end of this.
