Tropes for the series:

  • Alliterative Title: Molly Marine.
  • Artistic License – Law: In "Secret Squirrel", Abe requests a warrant from the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC). When the evidence comes back redacted, Abe asks if there's somebody he can appeal to, but the FISC judge says no. In fact, the FISC court has it's own specially-designated appellate court, the United States Foreign intelligence Surveillance Court of Review (FISCR), which exclusively handles appeals from FISC.
  • One-Word Title:
    • P.O.G..
    • Lioness.
  • Phony Veteran: One episode focuses on a Marine who exposes civilians posing as military veterans in public on video. It becomes complicated when one such phone Marine is beaten by a real one and dies of his injuries.
  • Tagline: "The law is their battlefield".
