* Joe believes a spark is a soul's purpose and that his own spark is music. But remember, he didn't come into the world with a passion for jazz music. He ''hated'' it until his father got him to give him a chance. His love of music was formed ''due to his experiences on earth'', not imprinted onto him by the You Seminar. Whether its his purpose or just his passion, it ''cannot'' be his spark.

* The newborn soul introduced before 22 has their number in the one hundred billions. Makes sense, since it's estimated that about 108 billion people have ever lived. The implication that a new soul's number is indicative of when they were created also emphasizes how long 22 has been in the Great Before -- she's the 22nd human soul ''ever'', and if she hadn't avoided it at all, she would have been born around ''5 million years ago''.

* Why was Joe the first person to get through to 22? The chosen mentors are all extraordinary people, and 22 expresses "Not good enough" as her reason for not progressing, it took being shown that even a life that was 'worthless' at first glance was worth living, as opposed to the parade of Doctors, Saints, and Historical figures that she likely felt she could not live up to. This is further supported by her curiosity with the fact that Joe clings so hard to life when he appears not to be extraordinary.

* The Lost Souls all have one eye. It's a visual metaphor for how they're all hyper-focused on just one thing.

* The unborn souls are little more than vague circular blobs, while the dead souls all have distinctive features such as hairstyles and clothing. It makes sense since the dead souls are carrying over certain things that helped form their identities, which the unborn souls don’t have yet.
* It seems strange that Number 22 seems to have an oddly distinctive personality when all the other unborn souls are little more than giggly babies. However she's had a personality encoded in her for a ''long'' time—all the circles in her patch (except her spark) were filled in, meaning she’d been assigned her personality well beforehand. She just didn’t have that final component, her spark.

* None of the Newborn Soul has legs (with the exception of 22 when she shapeshift into Joe for a moment), this is because they don't need them in the Great After, and when they are born as people, their baby legs will still need time to develop and be strong enough to start learning to walk.
