{{quote| "Why did I come here? 'Cause I wanted to tell you I know you kept the gun, and sooner or later I'll find it."}}
 
* [[Anti-Hero]]: John is probably a type III, where he's relatively good but dangerous. John has proved that he will go beyond the law and beyond 'good' to do what he needs to ultimately.
Line 18:
* [[Grey and Gray Morality]]: He will bend rules to the breaking point. {{spoiler|Help bury bodies and frame other criminals. Threaten witnesses to protect someone under his care.}} Hence his [[Anti-Hero]] status.
* [[Guile Hero]]
* [[Hero Withwith Bad Publicity]]: John is helping people but all the people he works with just see rage issues and unreliability...
** [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: ...and yet, he manages to [[Averted Trope|avert this trope]]. Everyone acknowledges that he's a brilliant cop - his boss responds with "he's back" when Luther sees through Alice in one conversation; Schenk admits that while he'll sack him on charges of improper conduct without blinking, he'll also do that to a good man and policeman; and Zoe immediately thrusts him when told that she's in danger without any evidence at all, solely based on Luther being Luther.
* [[Odd Friendship]]: With both Alice, [[For the Evulz|the woman who murdered her parents to see if she could]] and Mark, the man who used to sleep with John's wife.

Line 47:
* [[Odd Friendship]]: Considers Luther her only real friend.
* [[The Sociopath]]
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: Maybe. Her expression when she looks up Luther's background suggests that she's getting off from it.
* [[Token Evil Teammate]]
* [[Undying Loyalty]]: She flat out admits that she would never betray Luther.
