Miles Gloriosus: Played With. Bishop tends to act extremely cocky when he knows his friends will back him up. Later in the film, when Q and Steel decline helping him, he fights them off and shoots Radames in an alley. | |

Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Bishop was originally just a Chaotic Neutral who was tired of constantly being harassed, who eventually loses it as he kills a store owner, his best friend, his bully, and nearly kills one of his other closest friends. | |

| Juice / int_1ed91e2a | comment |
Revealing Hug: During Raheem's funeral, Bishop talks to his dead friend's mother and lets her cry on his shoulders. While this is happening, Bishop gives a cold and arrogant stare to Q, because Q knows that Bishop killed Raheem and threatened to kill him and his friends if he told. Q stares back, realizing what a monster Bishop is. | |

If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him! | |
| Juice / int_554063c6 | comment |
If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!: Acknowledged by Q when he tosses his gun in the river. Upon purchasing the gun, he becomes much more paranoid and almost shoots an innocent old homeless man because he jumped out at him in an alley. He decides that if he needs to defend himself against Bishop, he’ll fight him hand to hand, possibly even invoking You Wouldn't Shoot Me on him. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Juice / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Radames spent the whole film victimizing Bishop and his friends, as well as a bunch of other kids in the neighborhood. To say that nobody is shaken by his death (other than it being an example of Bishop finally becoming an Ax-Crazy murderer) is an understatement. Bishop, though it’s treated in a more Alas, Poor Villain manner. All of his actions starting from the second act of the film completely earned him his fate, but Q can’t help but feel guilty for not being able to hoist him back up before falling to his death. | |

Believing Their Own Lies | |
| Juice / int_a1ca3743 | comment |
Believing Their Own Lies: When Bishop actually tells Q to his face that he was the one responsible for all of Bishop’s crimes, and that he was the one chasing Bishop, not the other way around. Far from simply being an alibi or a way for Bishop to throw off the cops, it’s presented as unsettling and clear an example of Bishop’s Sanity Slippage as it seems. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Defied by Q. He buys a gun specifically to shoot Bishop for the very likely chance that he might be coming to kill him but tosses it in a river as the stress and paranoia stacks up, and he feels like he might be stooping to Bishop’s level. | |
