Broken Pedestal: O'Neill comes to respect Hanssen, and is quite shocked to learn the truth.

Bait-and-Switch Tyrant: O'Neill comes to admire Hanssen and seems to regard Linney's character as a Straw Feminist, given her insistence on investigating what he believes are trumped-up sexual deviancy charges. Only for Hanssen to turn out to be a traitor and the deviancy charges to be true. O'Neill outright apologizes to her afterwards, stunned at how much he's misjudged both of them.

Churchgoing Villain: Hanssen. Truth in Television, as Hanssen was a devout Catholic who did indeed attend church every day.

But Now I Must Go: O'Neill leaves the FBI after Hanssen's arrest. Very much true to life: O'Neill claimed in interviews about the movie that he couldn't stomach life in the FBI after the case was settled, citing exhaustion and depression.
