Soapbox Sadie: In her first appearance, Leah is introduced confronting a coffee shop employee about hipster coffee shops gentrifying the local area, setting the tone for her character's style of political engagement.

Everyone Has Standards: Gus points out to Bernard that you know it's bad when even the Daily Mail (a Murdoch-owned right-wing publication in the UK) called the school's scandal "The Great British Shame".

Cunning Linguist: Toby learned enough Farsi to avoid getting ripped of when bargaining with local Iranian shop owners who attempt to Hide Behind the Language Barrier and fluent Japanese to better understand Yasujiro Ozu films.

Armoured Closet Gay: Subverted. It initially seems the show will go down the Loving Bully route with Omar and Rupert, as Rupert is a closeted gay bully. But Omar bringing a more sympathetic side out of Rupert doesn't automatically make Rupert a Reformed Bully.
