History Fridge / Wednesday

* Wednesday says in a promotional video that homicidal maniacs "look just like everybody else." This isn’t just a shout-out to the 1991 movie, it’s a hint that Tyler is the murderer. He is, arguably, the most ordinary looking person in the whole series, with an ordinary job and hobbies - he couldn't blend any more into the background if he tried. This is also TruthInTelevision; if you see pictures of serial killers and homicidal maniacs like Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy, they just look like everyone else - either so plain that no one notices them, or so attractive that they easily lure victims in with their charm.

** Both, most likely. By that point, Wednesday had done enough damage that Weems would probably outright ''refuse'' to listen at first. So, by the time Wednesday and Eugene convince her to suspect Thornhill, and her and Wednesday travel back to the school, and they come up with a plan to confront Thornhill that won't risk tarnishing the school's reputation any further...
* Goody, or Goodwife, is a title and manner of address in the time period, not a name. Calling someone "Goody Lastname" immediately evokes the Salem Witch Trials for anyone who's read the stories, which feels like a deliberate invocation on the part of the writers, and thus becomes very confusing when Wednesday refers to Goody as if that were her actual first name. Did the writers not understand how it worked? Or is it that ''Wednesday'' hasn't read The Crucible and mistakes Goody for a name, as it seems like a perfectly reasonable name to ''her''?

* Hydes in and of themselves are utterly terrifying, given there's no telling who is one and, like Tyler, they themselves might not even know what they are until it is too late. With that said, the kicker is ''the process'' of one awakening as a Hyde which includes going through an initial trauma that brings the monster out and then someone putting them through continuous torture until the Hyde becomes completely submissive to who is essentially their abuser, all while fully succumbing to their Hyde-half's bloodthirsty and sadistic nature. Needless to say this opens an ugly water tank of worms, and needless to say Uncle Fester was damn right in saying people who use Hydes to do their dirty work are "next level sickos".

* Enid's hair, pink, white (blonde) and blue are the colours of the trans pride flag. The character isn't at any point stated to be trans, but her mother literally tries to send her to [[CureYourGays conversion therapy camp]]

* The flowers Thornhill gives to Wednesday have meaning. In flower language, the black Dahlia means "betrayal", while the white Oleander means renewal and destiny. White Oleander is also deadly. In short, Thornhill basically tells Wednesday, "I'm going to betray and kill you to fulfill our destiny to renew status quo." All with two flowers. Impressive, actually.

*** Goody's real name was [[RiddleForTheAges lost to history at some point]], and Wednesday simply never had time to ask about it, and just used the [[HeyYou first appropriate name or title she was given]].
*** Wednesday, being ''Wednesday'', simply didn't care enough to find out her real name, because it wasn't relevant to the case.

*** Wednesday, Morticia, and Crackstone used her title as a formality, and everyone else who heard it simply assumed that Goody was her real name.

* The sirens are actually not doing well at all during the boat race and would lose even more easily than they do if they didn't resort to cheating. This makes sense, because while they are water creatures, they are not used to ''rowing'' - normally, they just ''swim'', and then their speed comes from their tailfins, not from their arms.

* Garrett Gates' father hates outcasts so much that he forced his son to sneak into the Rave'N dance and try to sneak Nightshade poison into their food. That alone is horrifying, but then one remembers that Garrett was in love with Morticia and the latter tried to report his assault only to get ignored. One can only imagine how Garrett's father confronted him...

** Probably safe to say that whatever led to Tyler's mom awakening as a Hyde wasn't pretty...

* Thing putting black bubble gum on the morgue's security camera allowed Laurel to murder the coroner without being seen. Of course, given how ruthless Laurel is, she probably would have just destroyed the camera but Thing still unknowingly helped her.

** Not necessarily, considering Pugsley’s love for explosives and his comment about being the first person in the family, who ends up behind bars. He might even deal with the bullies by living up to the [[ImAHumanitarian Addams Family’s credo]].
