The only thing that leaps immediately to mind is the way that Elizabeth's recollections of her rape tend to be portrayed: both when she had to use it to try to seduce Brad, and during the "roleplay" scene. In neither case did the show hit us over the head with "remember, she was raped! remember! this is why this is affecting her the way it is! you have to remember!" There wasn't even a reference to it in the "previouslies" before the episode. And judging from Twitter, this meant that a lot of casual viewers didn't get the reference either time--possibly people who never saw the pilot, or who had forgotten about it because they were not hit over the head with it.

But there have been a lot of things beyond that too. It'll be easier to mention them as they occur throughout season four, I suspect; remind me in our discussions.
