* During the prologue to the second arc, while talking about Sara, Akemi tries to make an argument that someone with that reputation must've earned it and that there's no way people would slander her without reason, causing Goh to look at the side. This Is a jab at how Goh was often called out by other characters regarding his role in his and Chloe's strained friendship, without either hearing his side of the story or assuming there was more to it than what they were told.
