Project Blue Book / int_126ac7b8 | comment |

Ambiguous Situation | |
Project Blue Book / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: What the aliens are actually doing on Earth, and what their plans are for the future. The CIA speculate there's an invasion coming, but whether it's true or not is up in the air. David Dubrovsky's appearance in spades. His encounter has the aliens acting far friendlier and less mysterious than normal, and engaging in direct communication, not to mention leaving photographic proof of themselves for once. Years later Hynek dismisses him as a conman - but there's the matter of Hynek and Quinn finding the (very real) alien symbol burned into the ground outside his home, and how the hell he knew about the Robertson Committee in the first place... | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Daniel Banks, the CIA operative the boys meet, seems to be a Reasonable Authority Figure who's on their side, even helping Quinn save Hynek from the Men in Black. Then comes the Robertson Committee, and he does his best to discredit them and their cases under orders from the CIA, so they can take over the alien investigations themselves. | |

Project Blue Book / int_5a4aa505 | comment |
Government Conspiracy: Air Force generals Harding and Valentine, as well as the Secretary of Defence, are shown to be at least partially knowledgeable of alien life, and create Project Blue Book as a smokescreen to reassure the general public. "The Washington Merry-Go Round" makes clear Harding is willing to lie to the President that the latest incident is Russians, despite the risk of this starting World War 3. | |

Those Wacky Nazis | |
Project Blue Book / int_697b5232 | comment |
Those Wacky Nazis: Ex-Nazis in this case. "Operation Paperclip" prominently features Wernher von Braun, the former Nazi scientist responsible for the V2 rocket and later instrumental to the Apollo program - and here he's responsible for building the Air Force a UFO copy. We find out in "The Roswell Incident" that Valentine has convinced Harding that the aliens were actually children surgically altered by notorious Nazi scientist Josef Mengele, and that the whole thing was concocted by the Russians. Notably, the following episode shows Harding beginning to believe the possibility it is actually aliens after all. | |

Jerkass Has a Point: Banks's demolishing their credibility to the Robertson Committee wouldn't be nearly as effective if his charges - staging alien invasions, breaking onto bases, stealing alien technology, inciting mass panic - weren't all things Hynek, Quinn and the Air Force have variously done in the series. | |

Take a Third Option | |
Project Blue Book / int_950bbfa7 | comment |
Take a Third Option: Said almost word-for-word in "Close Encounters" when, faced with a choice between letting the Robertson panel paint them as incompetents and telling the truth and bringing down the Air Force's wrath on them, Hynek brings in Daniel Banks, the CIA operative they've been working with, to provide character testimony on their good work. Unlike most examples of this trope, backfires massively when Banks buries them to the committee under orders from the CIA - so they end up taking a fourth option; letting David Dubrovsky give his testimony and then pointing out that aliens or no, Blue Book is needed so cranks like him can't panic the American people. It works. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity: In "The Roswell Incident" Hynek fakes being excessively drunk, deliberately provoking General Harding so he can take his leave of the situation to investigate what's actually going on. Works a little too well in that Harding ends up firing him, and only his successfully stopping Harding's actions being exposed on live TV save him. | |

Red Scare: The show is set in the early Cold War and Atomic Age. Both Valentine and Harding are convinced that at least some of what they're seeing is engineered by the Soviets, including the Roswell Incident. There are actual Reds to worry about though - the series shows a network of Soviet operatives at various points, including Susie, while "Broken Arrow" revolves around a crashed Soviet aircraft and its missing nuclear bomb. | |

Everyone Has Standards: Harding and Valentine may be willing to lie, intimidate witnesses and cover up alien incidents, but they're sincerely furious when they find out one of the Secretary of Defence's pet projects involved testing fear gas on American soldiers. While Hynek has come around to thinking the truth about aliens should come out, he refuses to let it happen because of a lie, and exposes the fake Roswell autopsy video accordingly. When a Honey Trap Air Force effort to uncover who an agent is working for goes awry and he starts threatening their "prostitute" operative, Harding doesn't hesitate to step in and save her - in stark contrast to Valentine, who's only concerned about blowing their cover. Both generals are genuinely distraught over the supposed death of Quinn in the season 2 finale, with Harding even recommending him for the Medal of Honor. | |

Berserk Button: Quinn despises Germans in general after his experiences in the war (he was one of the first Americans into Buchenwald), so dealing with Wernher Von Braun's ex-Nazi scientists constantly triggers him into irrational actions that almost get him fired. After the speech mentioned in the Well-Intentioned Extremist entry, Hynek claiming it's all bullshit and Harding's a coward angers him so much he fires Hynek almost on the spot. | |

Jurisdiction Friction: Hynek and Quinn spend a lot of their time annoying local authorities. Beyond that, season 2 has the two investigate Area 51 - under the jurisdiction of the newly-formed CIA, in turn leading to their competing with the Air Force throughout the season to be the only ones sanctioned by the government to investigate aliens. And the season 2 finale has them investigate an underwater UFO sighting on the battleship Wisconsin, coming up against a hard-headed Navy admiral who loathes the Air Force. | |

Project Blue Book / int_c3648b87 | comment |
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Quinn and Hynek frequently don't get on - Hynek's dedicated to uncovering the truth, while Quinn simply wants to close cases and keep his job. Things deteriorate towards the end of the season following Hynek's theft of an alien device from an Air Force base, to the point of fisticuffs in "Abduction". They patch things up after it becomes apparent that something really is going on in the finale. Harding, Valentine and Banks come together to figure out who Garner is working for, as despite their many clashes, none of them want the details of UFOs being put into the public domain. Hynek ends up working with the Men in Black at the end of season 2 despite his mistrust of them to find the disappeared Captain Quinn. | |

Blue-and-Orange Morality: Hynek speculates towards the end of season 2 that the aliens are trying to help the human race by stopping incidents that could start World War 3 - but their actual appearances in the story sometimes confirm this, sometimes go totally against it.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Harding bribes and intimidates witnesses, actively waterboards someone himself at one point and lies directly to the President that Russians were responsible for a mass sighting over Washington, despite the fact it could trigger a war. Yet he claims his work is crucial to protecting every man, woman and child on the planet, and at another point draws an indirect comparison between the bombing of Hiroshima and what he's doing, claiming both prevented the world from sliding into chaos. | |
