* [[HAD to Be Sharp|Had To Be Sharp]]: Not book smart, but her street smarts are finely honed, which explains why she'smuch more alive than she otherwise should be.

* [[Hidden Depths]]: Despite being a [[Blood Knight|brutal]] [[Fighting Irish|cage-fighting]] Wastelander that was practically raised by [[Dumb Muscle|Raiders]], Cait is surprisingly knowledgeable of the [[Incompetence, Inc.|Vault]]-[[Evil Inc.|Tec]] [[For Science!|experiments]], to the point where she seems to know about them more than what even the majority of Vault-Tec scientists and Vault Dwellers were aware of.

** Some clever retroactive [[Fridge Brilliance]] kicks in if you consider the implications of her loyalty quest: {{spoiler|where she has you take her to a Vault designed to help drug addicts flush their systems of their addictions}}. When you consider why that's important to her, it makes a LOT of sense she did a lot of research into it, hinting she's a bit more capable of learning than she claims.

* [[Kick the Dog]]: Almost literally. She, [[The Brute|Strong]] and [[Consummate Professional|X6-88]] are the only companions to show an active disdain for [[Canine Companion|Dogmeat]], with her derisively calling the animal "a dirty little mole rat."

* [[Pet the Dog]]: Not the actual dog, ironically, but even she has her moments of showing compassion.

* [[Token Evil Teammate]]: Of sorts, given she's encouraging to a player who engages in amoral acts like theft and drug use. She can also be argued as being the closest thing the base game has to a ''Raider'' companion (before Porter Gage comes around).
