Running Gag: Cassie always knows when someone is coming up behind her.


Parental Bonus: Cassie mentions to Sam that she "woke up this morning thinking of" him.The implication is that it's somewhere between 19 and she's more than 100 years old. Older than They Look: Jake asks Cassie if she was really born in "nineteen hundred and-" before she cuts him off.Nice Girl: Very possibly the single most good-hearted character in the entire franchise-which is saying something.The Mentor: Plays this role to everyone.Eventually they fall in love and get married. Despite this, their attraction for each other is apparent very early on, and they do have very similar values. They often (though playfully) clash over even small things like coffee(Sam) vs. He's a physician, and she recommends alternative medicine. She's an idealistic dreamer, and Sam starts out not believing in anything other than what he can see, touch, and measure. Opposites Attract: Cassie and Sam are perfect foils for each other, with Sam as the analytical/practical one and Cassie being a "think-outside-the-box" type.Incredibly Lame Pun: Cassie notes in 5x08 that Abigail and a volleyball coach "hit it off.".Guile Hero: Cassie is incredibly good at using her Contrived Coincidence power to set up couples and make people happy.Good Parents: Cassie is an amazing mom (if sometimes veering into Amazingly Embarrassing Parents thanks to her clairvoyance).Experienced Protagonist: Being mature, wise, and an accomplished mistress of the Batman Gambit.Eating the Eye Candy: Multiple episodes show that she does not mind Sam going around in tight T-shirts.Deadpan Snarker: Not as much as other characters, but she has her moments.Contrived Coincidence: She's a master at setting these up.Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: The brunette.Batman Gambit: She's an absolute master at these (though she's always well-intentioned).Armor-Piercing Question: One of her specialties.Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Having a mom/stepmom who often knows your secrets before you even say them out loud can be.less than enjoyable.
