* TheParanoiac: [[Spoiler:Hilda, who hasn't left her bunker in years, sees enemies everywhere, and tries to maintain her iron grip on society by any means necessary]].

* {{Foreshadowing}}: There's a number of clues hinting at the fact that [[spoiler:Hilda Van Der Koy is Boy's mother]].
** If Hilda was willing to kill a little girl, why would she only have Boy left a deaf mute? [[spoiler:Because she didn't kill Boy's family and the Shaman was the one to deafen him and cut out his tongue]].
** When she sees Boy for the first time, Hilda does a noticeable double take at his appearance.
** Boy remembers eating Frosty Puffs with his sister, the same cereal company that endorses the Culling, despite his mother's hatred for the Van Der Koy regime.
** The Shaman made Boy eat small bowls filled with bugs while keeping a whole roasted chicken for himself, [[spoiler:due to still hating Boy for killing his family]].
