Adaptational Villainy: The Trinity organization was never good by any stretch of the imagination and verged on A Nazi by Any Other Name but a lot of their actions in the comic book serve no purpose other than to Kick the Dog.

comment
Watching the Reflection Undress: Lara is taking a relaxing bubble bath which is interrupted by Chase who has information on the plot for her. She's covered by Censor Suds, so she's unconcerned with him in the bathroom until she has to leave tub and she asks him to turn around, which he complies. But as she's drying herself, she notices he's been staring at her through the mirror and angrily throws the towel at his face.

Undressing the Unconscious: In issue #10, Lara falls into a whirlpool and almost drowns, losing consciousness. When she wakes up, she's nude on a luxurious bedroom beneath a Modesty Bedsheet with all her clothes, equipment and weapons nearby. As she dresses, she concludes that whoever rescued her is confident enough that they don't see her as a threat.
