- Angst? What Angst?:
- Both averted and played straight, depending on the situation; it kind of becomes necessary with the Trauma Conga Line.
- Still, averted frequently like when Seth thinks Kendra died and the times when Kendra thinks her family and friends are in danger of dying, but there are moments when a character experiences a crude death but the team has to keep moving.
