Line 38:
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: With her childhood friend Morelli being the Betty, and Ranger being a mega-Veronica.
* [[Big Beautiful Woman]]: Lula.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Since Stephanie is often [[Distressed Damsel in Distress|in distress]], Ranger and/or Morelli have to come in and save her. A notable one is in ''Ten Big Ones'', where [[Transvestite]]/Schoolbus Driver/[[Added Alliterative Appeal|Singer Salvatore "Sally" Sweet sees Stephanie]] being abducted by a gang. He swoops in on his bus, squishing a third of the gang and mowing down another third with an [[More Dakka|Uzi]] causing the remainder to scatter.
* [[Big Eater]]: Lula, Bob, Stephanie (especially with regards to cake), Valerie (Stephanie's sister) when pregnant, and possibly Morelli.
* [[Big Friendly Dog]]: Bob. ''Very'' friendly, as his greeting involves sticking his nose into your crotch. [[Big Eater|Eats]] <s> a lot</s> [[Extreme Omnivore|everything]].
Line 62:
* [[Discretion Shot]]: The literary version, with at least two cases of make-out scenes stopping abruptly when the male partner to Stephanie reaches her groin area.
** In the movie, Stephanie gets naked and handcuffed to a shower and is just barely covered by the shower curtain, also an old man who likes to "expose himself" is covered by conveneniently placed objects, [[Squick|thank goodness]]
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]: Stephanie, at the climax of almost every book.
** Surprisingly inverted in the film, as she manages to knock a guy to the ground and handcuff him after he shoots Ranger, she pepper sprays Benito Ramirez while he's fighting Joe, allowing him to knock out Benito, and when {{spoiler|[[Big Bad]] Jimmy Alpha has Stephanie and Joe cornered and is planning to kill them, Stephanie knocks him down and he shoots her in the ass, but it barely slows her down and she manages to grab a gun from her purse and promptly shoots Jimmy in the chest five times in a row}}
* [[Drag Queen]]: Sally, Sugar, and their band. While Sugar is actually gay, Sally only likes to take advantage of the aesthetic.
