Line 40:
* [[He Who Fights Monsters]]: Tony has acknowledged he has reached this point, though in "Bad Seed", Carol worries she's becoming one as well.
* [[Identification By Dental Records]]: Necessitated by the gruesome nature of some killings.
* [[Jurisdiction Friction]]: When crimes go into other jurisdictions, you can imagine how well a maverick like Tony goes over. Carol -- and later Alex -- both encounter internal [[Jurisdiction Friction]] from ACC's Brandon and Eden. In "Nothing But the Night", Carol [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|sticks her foot in it]] when she tells off Yorkshire CID's DCI.
* [[The Killer Was Left Handed]]: Often. The standard ''Wire In The Blood'' killer would be an impotent left-hander.
* [[Left Hanging]]: While the last episode ends on a somewhat fitting climax, namely: {{spoiler|Tony killing his [[Arch Enemy]], Michael, in self-defense}}, a lot of tension is still unresolved since {{spoiler|killing someone has been Tony's biggest fantasy, and the fact that he has fulfilled it would certainly have some severe consequences for him}}. It is very unlikely that we will ever know what these consequences would turn to be.
Line 64:
* [[Talking to The Dead]]: Tony does a lot of this. It can be exceptionally unnerving when the in-world visuals seamlessly drift into what Tony is seeing and who he is talking to.
* [[To Know Him I Must Become Him]]: Tony goes way beyond dry analysis to a form of channelling, and there are even scenes where he imagines himself killing -- these scenes are emblematic of the series.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Carol gives Tony hell in "Bad Seed" for withholding information that almost got a team member killed and might lead to their killer committing suicide.
* [[WhosWho's Laughing Now?]]: Killers get their hands on the cops that are hunting them, leading to such scenes.
* [[Vomiting Cop]]: Tony gets a variation.
