* TheMenInBlack: They are constantly keeping secret all information related to Joe's and what happens inside their restaurants.
* GovernmentConspiracy: [[spoiler:They seek [[SuperSoldier the creation of super soldiers]], even if it leads to the death and disappearance of dozens of children and adults. Anyone who tries to get involved [[HeKnowsTooMuch may not come out alive]], they were even able to [[TheKingslayer get rid of the president]]]].

* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler:Although the CIA does not have as much participation in the direct actions in the Joe Family Company establishments (Zak has that role), said organization does have participation in the general view. They were the ones who schooled Zak in madness by initially reaching out to him to hide what happened at Joe and Toxic's Diner, but giving him the task of killing and capturing more children. They were also in charge of hiding rumors and information that could compromise the organization and those involved. Likewise, they are the ones who indirectly carried out much of the events of TFR, such as Zak preventing rumors from resurfacing in TFR 2, or asking for the capture of more children during TFR 3]].

* RealLife: Yep, it's that John Kennedy.
* DefiantToTheEnd: [[spoiler:Kennedy gave the CIA quite a bit of trouble since he became president, cutting funding to Ellie's in an attempt to get the experiments to stop. Too bad this wouldn't be taken very well by the CIA]].

* BlueMeansSmartOne: He is able to get his way with almost anything and has a variety of technical and mechanical skills.
* RenaissanceMan: Creator of advanced animatronics, probably at the forefront of the animatronic industry. [[spoiler:CIA agent, probably high ranking in the organization]]. A great businessman, with his own children's restaurants. Great knowledge in mechatronics and animatronics, being able to modify robots that are not even his own brand as if it were nothing. [[spoiler:Extensive military knowledge from when he was a soldier, used in the torture methods in the basement of Ellie's and to prevent his almost imminent death by the victims in Austin's]].



* CallBack:: [[spoiler:Zak is attacked by 5 souls, leaving him seriously injured (although surviving). Does it remind you of the situation of [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys3 a certain purple person?]]]]

* CuriosityKilledTheCast: It was already strange to gradually verify that the rumors about Joe's [[spoiler:and Ellie's were probably real]], what ended up terrifying Phone Guy [[spoiler:was finding an image of The Hatman at the back of the animatronic stage at Ellie's]], terrifying him to the point of making the excuse that he needed to go to the doctor rather than continue explaining his discoveries.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Despite the whole plot of Phone Guy trying to discover the truth, after "going to the doctor", we never hear anything more from him. [[spoiler:However, knowing that The Hatman is still out there, and TFR 3 itself suggests that he is still lurking, it is more than likely that Phone Guy has met a terrible fate for trying to stick his nose where he shouldn't]].

* AllThereInTheManual: [[spoiler:As mentioned in the previous trope, if you make use of ELLIE'S, Stan's past could be reinterpreted. If you've already read the main page of the video game, you'll have noticed that in ELLIE'S [[SoleSurvivor one of the victims in Zak's shooting survived]], right? [[AndThatLittleGirlWasMe What if this surviving victim is Stan?]] And what, in fact, could Emma be a person close to him, [[FamilyExtermination if not directly his sister]]? This gives a 180° turn to the character, changing that mysterious past for [[BrokenHero a broken man who has not been able to turn the page on the tragedy]] and, despite the years, [[SeekerArchetype continues searching for the truth]]]].

* TFR 5 also doesn't show a protagonist, but you would think that the guard would be the next owner and founder of Fredbear's Family Diner, [[Foreshadowing buying the rights and technology to Joe and Toxic's Diner's springlock suits to implement them in this other business]]. Although, this is more of a headcanon than a true theory.

* TFR 2 doesn't offer many real clues about the identity of its protagonist, however, there is the possibility that it's Jeremy Fitzgerald. A character from [=FNaF 2=] had already been introduced to us in the previous game, why wouldn't Jeremy either? This would explain why the Insanity bar exists in the first place, the '87 Bite incident caused aftereffects regarding the trauma with the animatronics. Why would Jeremy be in a Fazbear-related attraction? Probably trying to search the truth of the incidents related to the company.
