** She also does it once or twice to Ken when trying to escape.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Of a sort; Barbara isn't exactly a villain, but she is a pretty horrible person at the beginning of the movie. Spending time with the Kesslers, however, and losing weight has an improving effect on her personality and she gradually becomes a much nicer person.

** [[Millers Crossing|Eddie Dane]] is the Bedroom Killer.

* [[Split -Screen Phone Call]]: Twice, between Carol and Chief Benton discussing Sam's arrest and then his release.
* [[Springtime for Hitler]]: Sam tries to get his wife killed by failing to pay the ransom. It doesn't work.
