** Also, there are plenty of race-related theories that contradict each other, so its unlikely that ''every'' theory that's racist is also correct. For example, in white supremacy circles, there are theories that black people evolved from apes and that white people therefore have the authority to rule over them, while a common theory in black supremacist groups is that black people are actually the ''progenitors'' of white people. If racial issues are ever brought up, it's likely that the show will throw in a wrench giving the "true" explanation (and it'll probably be something quite ridiculous to elevate the tension).

** On a different note, it is stated that the only reason Cognito still drugs Still Valley with Nostalgia Max is so they can sell the town unsold 80's crap that is too dangerous to sell to the rest of the world. As pointed out elsewhere, cognito isn't actually producing this stuff, so there is a finite amount they can sell. Once they run out of products to sell to Still Valley, which they should be close to doing, since they've been selling stuff for decades, they have two options. Either they stop drugging the town, causing everyone to realize they aren't in the 80's and try to get them to adapt to the 2020's without the rest of the world finding out, or massacring the entire town once they are no longer useful.

* "The Brettfast Club" has a lot of this:
** Brett accidentally gets coated in a combo of Nostalgia Max and chemicals from recalled 80s paraphernalia. While Reagan manages to stop his rampage, we never see his powers get actually ''removed'' onscreen; he just calms down and stops using them all of a sudden. And, also, Brett was covered in a dosage of Nostalgia Max meant to be used on an ''entire town of people''. Is it possible that those powers aren't completely gone and, at some point, there could be nasty consequences in the future?
** This episode also puts all of Brett's previous behavior into horrific perspective. All those times when he's disregarded his wellbeing for the sake of being liked, and the other characters (and the audience) saw it as him just being sensitive and agreeable to a stupid degree? [[FunnyAneurysmMoment Yeah, turns out there's a reason for it.]]
** Also, Brett originally planned to use only a little bit of the stuff on his friends to get them to want to stay in the 80s a little longer. But an overdosed Brett decides that, instead of a just a small amount, he intends to to pour a whole ''tub'' of the stuff onto his coworkers, as he nearly does this to Reagan before she can [[IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight bring him back to his senses.]] Brett probably didn't intend for this, but how do we know that the Nostalgia Max would ''only'' make the team nostalgic, and not just turn them into more Nostalgia Monsters like Brett? If Brett hadn't been talked down, the town probably would have had multiple, nostalgia-empowered lunatics terrorizing it!

** This would also explain that gong sound effect Andre was hearing all episode every time he spoke. While it could just be a running gag, it could also be a hallucination caused by the cocktail of dangerous intoxicants he takes on the regular not sitting well with him. None of his coworkers or the town's residents bring it up, and it also doesn't play ''every'' time he speaks, as he speaks a few times and the effect isn't heard. The only time we see it openly addressed is the first time, when a kid at the mall bumped into one at a shop. It could have just been playing in repeat in Andre's head while he was high and no one cared because [[StonersAreFunny he's like that all of the time, anyways.]]

* Regarding the mechanisms of Rand's mind-exploration tech; it's possible for a person to enter their own memories and mess them up with their presence, as Reagan and Brett both end up doing. However, this begs the question of how the in-memory counterparts decide how to behave; they're not physically ''there'', after all. The obvious answer is that they react the way the memory owner would expect them to react. If they can do this on purpose, through Rand's technology, there's a good chance they can also do it accidentally, resulting in SelfServingMemory.

* Cognito Inc. is shown to have access to various means of erasing memories of the organization, such as guns and extraction teams. So why does Rand, who spends most of Season 1 fired from the company, still have all his memories of Cognito? Thinking about it, there are some factors that go into it:
** First of all, knowing Rand, he probably thought of this ahead of time and created a clause for himself that even if he was fired, nobody could touch his memories. Since he was one of the company's founders and a former CEO, he could get away with this. [[spoiler: This also makes what he did to Reagan's memories even worse.]]
** Second, even though Rand knows a lot of secrets, he undermines his credibility by being perpetually drunk and using his knowledge for petty reasons. This is showcased in the very first scene of the first episode, where it's clear that everyone around him doesn't believe a word he's saying because to them, he's a visibly drunk loon who's just spouting nonsense. And even though Cognito does know how dangerous Rand can be (see J.R.'s reaction to a sober Rand in Episode 2), they still underestimated just ''how much'' of a threat he could be.
