** Ironically, one wonders if Royal Pain using technopathy to terrorize is what lead to technopaths as a whole being more respected. How many other respected powers started out in the hands of unappreciated villains?


Added DiffLines:

** That's more a perception thing. Will is a teenager -- even a 28-year-old would seem "old" to him.

* Every time Gwen Grayson is onscreen, the soundtrack plays a remake of a song from the 1980's...which is basically what happened to her body!

* Sky High's name isn't just referring to how superheroes fly in the air nor can reach huge amount of power they can reach - it can also refer to the immense amount of expectations placed on the students by their parents.

Added DiffLines:

* Consider how much more powerful Royal Pain became in the transition from the ‘70s to the 2000s. Now consider how much more technology we rely on nearly twenty years later. We can only hope she never escaped detention.

Added DiffLines:

** Royal Pain apparently remembered enough to tell the story to Baby!Commander. Her comment in the detention room ("I went through puberty twice... for this!?") also suggests she remembered everything. In both cases, she got emotional in her speech, so she was likely not just remembering what she was told... it was personal.

* Will horrifiedly states "Oh my god: I made out with an old lady"... except Royal Pain is technically not old, but roughly 40, about presumably the age of his mom. Still {{Squick}}-worthy, but not that big an age gap.

* At one point, before the reveal, Royal Pain indicates having trouble with a joystick. Which seems odd when you consider Royal Pain/Gwen is a technopath. However, it's possible that, as a technopath, more analogue technology might be harder to control than modern day electronics. Which is part of why she was so unappreciated in her time. So few proper digital electronics were widely available compared to much more analogue devices, possibly making her attempts at controlling what technology Did exist at the time more difficult than the fact that it was rare to begin with.

** Knowing the implication that Steve used to bully Sue/Gwen, that seems like an appropriate thing he would call her... add that to the fact that Gwen called Steve her "[[FoeYay dear Commander]]", it would appear as though she [[HasAType has a thing]] for [[SupermanSubstitute big, super-strong guys]]. This just makes it ''way'' creepier than it already was.
