Catapult Nightmare | |
| Wolf Like Me / int_2c9e262 | comment |
This trope is the reason for Mary's Catapult Nightmare at the beginning of season 2- notably, the nightmare ends with Emma, her flower-girl gown as drenched in blood as Mary's wedding dress, exasperatedly asking why Mary got pregnant. | |

Shopping Cart of Homelessness. Gary accidentally runs over a homeless man's shopping cart in season 2 episode 5, but then (assuming the homeless man was the same one that Emma gifted a sandwich to in the pilot episode), he goes through the effort of getting him a new cart. | |

Alternate Identity Amnesia: As she is quick to tell Gary when he assumes otherwise, Mary can't recall her actions as a wolf. Mary's ex-boyfriend Anton, who is also a werewolf, also has this issue when he appears in season 2, basically confirming this to Gary. | |

Trauma Button: Italian food is one for Mary, after she ate an Italian family in her backstory. Meat in general is also apparently one for Mary, since she became a vegan as a human, presumably to dissociate from her wolf side. | |

Not Using the "Z" Word: Season 1 only describes Mary's condition as "turning into a wolf" with the only use of the word "werewolf" said once for episode 5. Subverted when Season 2 came along, with Mary being referred to as a werewolf more frequently. | |

Cannot Spit It Out: In the season 1 finale, Mary is OK with telling Emma about her being pregnant, but can't muster enough courage to tell Emma that she's a Werewolf. Rendered a moot point the next evening when Emma sees Mary's wolf form in action. | |

That same plush wolf being placed in the baby crib, and Mary's affectionate treatment of it while she's in wolf form, also foreshadows Gary and Mary's then-unborn baby is also a Werewolf. | |

What If the Baby Is Like Me | |
| Wolf Like Me / int_d8a7295a | comment |
What If the Baby Is Like Me: Mary is worried that her and Gary's baby will also be a werewolf. Also notable in that this is the way that Mary's pregnancy is announced to the audience in season 1. This trope is the reason for Mary's Catapult Nightmare at the beginning of season 2- notably, the nightmare ends with Emma, her flower-girl gown as drenched in blood as Mary's wedding dress, exasperatedly asking why Mary got pregnant. Ultimately, the season 2 finale confirms the baby to be a werewolf. | |

Red Herring | |
| Wolf Like Me / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: Emma's panic attack after surviving an automobile accident, combined with her Missing Mom, leads the audience to believe that Emma's mom died in a car crash. Gary mentions to Mary that she died of cancer instead. | |

Mercy Kill | |
| Wolf Like Me / int_f3626b09 | comment |
Mercy Kill: Subverted- the goat that Mary ate in episode 2 had some sort of nerve infection, and was going to be put down anyway. The goat would have probably preferred euthanasia to being eaten. In season 2, Mary kept a loaded gun in the glove box of Gary's car so that he could give her one if she ate their baby. | |

Our Werewolves Are Different | |
| Wolf Like Me / int_f8b3fa5d | comment |
Our Werewolves Are Different: Mary is pretty much a bog-standard werewolf, with the standard werewolf origin story (bitten by a werewolf, then became one herself), is a mindless hungry brute as a wolf (she takes the precaution of locking herself in the basement with some chickens every night of the full moon), and is shown as quadrupedal when her wolf form is finally shown on-screen in the season 1 finale. As of the season 2 finale, Lycanthropy is also shown to be hereditary, and female werewolves apparently give birth while in wolf form, on the night of a full moon that is nearest their due date. | |

| Wolf Like Me / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Mary was bitten by a werewolf while in Prague, then turned into a werewolf and presumably ate her husband at a rock concert that happened to be the night of a full moon. Then she transformed again while in Italy, and apparently ate an Italian family, before she fled all the way to Australia. | |
