** Why is Xenol portrayed as TheHero, even though he just [[ApocalypseHow blew]] [[EarthShatteringKaboom up]] [[InferredHolocaust a]] [[KickTheDog planet]] of aliens who were [[MoralDissonance rallying against the tyranical rule he imposed on them?]] Because he fights to protect the genetic purity of his species against the evil Golden Emperor who only wishes obedience, which makes him ''positively virtuous and heroic'' in a Dalek's eye!

* Grexzol frequently babbles and has serious issues with wandering attention, yet is clearly skilled enough to easily mow down First Empire troops. It's highly possible (and his stories support this) that he has survived for so long, his age has advanced to the point he's actually suffering from ''senility'' - a complete rarity for a species as warlike as the Daleks.

* A minor one, but it's shown that Dalek travel machines are easily split into two sections, the base and the top. This is ''exactly'' how the [[TruthInTelevision original props from the TV show]] worked.

*** Think hard enough, and you'll discover how freaking different a Dalek's mindset is from ours: Things like genetic purity, loyalty to the Dalek race and superiority over everything else are viewed like we do the PowerOfFriendship, the PowerOfLove and all sorts of other stuff, while things we would consider MoralEventHorizon's are perfectly natural.

** Why is the Golden Emperor ([[{{MyFriendsAndZoidberg}} and Pturrd]]) such a bastard concerning his troops? Because he's been meddling with their genetic structure and, at some subconcious level, doesn't consider them Daleks at all!

** A lot of the Second Empire characters, including background ones, are easily identifiable in both looks and general quirks when compared to the First Empire. Of course, individualism is the kind of thing the Golden Emperor is trying to breed out of Dalek kind.

** Why don't the Daleks do research? Because that will involve going down to the level of somebody else, and Daleks simply wont do that.
