* When Anna's ghost leads you to the Galaxy of Terror, she needlessly takes you around in a circle before getting you there. Earlier in the game, Anna was described as [[TheDitz a ditz]] by the people that knew her, so it makes sense that her ghost would get you where you needed to go in such a roundabout way instead of the quicker way.

* At the end of Quint and Becky's sidequest, York says "another young life saved Zach, good job". [[spoiler: Remember that in reality, York is an alternate persona and all utterances of York and Zach reversed; so the line is actually "Another young life saved York, good job", delivered by Zach, the true persona. Who was the previous young life that York saved? ''Zach himself''.]]

* If you check the Galaxy of Terror late at night, sometimes you can see Thomas or Carol head to a room you can't enter. If you check the map you'll notice they're with someone else [[spoiler: George, and later you find out that it's the secret BDSM room. With the way the game treats Thomas as a fellow victim despite his antagonism and death at your hands, and his comments on George's cruelty]], you realize that meek and gentle ShrinkingViolet who cooks lunch for you daily [[spoiler: is a LoveMartyr who was probably being sexually and physically abused]] right under your nose the whole time, and it's implied [[spoiler: his eventual psychosis is partly the result of BreakTheCutie]].
** Likewise, Carol's abrasiveness [[spoiler: may also be the result of similar abuse]].

* During the autopsy scene, when York finds out that Emily was watching a movie on TV the night of the murder, he grinds his investigative questioning to a halt to ask her what it was and then rattle off the year and director before moving on. Seems like just another case of [[PopCulturedBadass York]] [[CloudCuckoolander being York]], until you poke around Emily's house and realize something about her: [[spoiler: She's just as huge a film buff as he is. This seemingly-innocuous moment is probably when she starts to fall for him, because she realizes that they actually have something in common.]]

* During one of the car chats in Episode 3, York is trying to work out what his feelings for Emily are. He tells Zach that she reminds him of "something he used to feel"--the feeling of wanting to protect someone, but at the same time, feeling protected ''by'' them. He wonders out loud: "Who used to make me feel that way...?" [[spoiler: It's Zach himself. York is Zach's protector, but at the same time, Zach still helps guide him and keep him anchored in the real world.]]

* It's pointed out subtly several times in the game that Greenvale has a lot of stuff in it (art gallery, big fancy hotel, sawmill, two bars...) despite being a relatively quiet small town. This is foreshadowing [[spoiler:that Greenvale used to have a larger population that was killed off by Kasen's experiment.]]

* During the second victims death York just stands there watching her die. Alright he made a mistake assuming she was dead the first time I can forgive that (although he does the same damn thing for the third victim too) but after seeing she was alive and after the trap had been sprung he didn't think, maybe he should attempt to support her weight to stop her strangling to death two feet in front of him. Don't say it was an instant death either, we clearly see her still alive even before York starts seeing things from behold the grave.

* Pay close attention to Brian Xander Morgan's gun, it's a magnum, now take note the prize in [[spoiler: Willie's Doghouse]] after completing his sidequest with all seven bones, a magnum. Kaysen likely stole that Magnum from Xander's dead body.]]

* [[spoiler: In Spy Fiction, Kaysen is killed by Lauder. This never made any sense to me, because he was still alive back when the gas was released meaning he was super paranormal for a while. If that's the case, how did the Lauder kill him. If the Lauder did kill him, either the events of Greenvale shouldn't happen, or Spy Fiction took place after DP and never happen because Zach killed Kaysen.]]
