* [[An Odd Place to Sleep]]: Austin James sleeps in a cupboard; he explains this because he wanted a sensory deprivation tank when he was young, but couldn't afford one. By the time the series starts, he can afford as many as he likes, but he's gotten used to cupboards.

* [[Short Runners]]

* [[Stalker With a Crush]]: In one episode, Austin is pursued by a stalker who murders one woman and tries to murder another she sees as an obstacle to her obsession with Austin. The twist? {{spoiler|The stalker is a mentally enhanced orangutan.}}
