History Headscratchers / ProfessorLayton

** I find it hard to believe that [[spoiler: Clive]] could have had the money to build an [[spoiler: entire London-sized, fully operating city below Real!London. Unless half of the buildings were hollow or something. I mean, inheritance be damned, no one person would have that much money. On top of that the worker the Professor and Luke meet when they first enter Future London says something like "we've been building for a year" - how could you possibly build an entire city in a year?]]
** The citizens of Future London are all [[spoiler: scared stiff of Layton and his hat because he/it looks like the evil!Layton that's been heading the crime gangs. Assuming they're not somehow hired actors (exceptional actors at that, to convince Layton and co that they're really in the future), it's a bit of a Fridge Logic moment - Dimitri, or rather the "evil Layton," has been underground since the time machine accident where the Prime Minister was captured - a day, at the least, a week at the most. Yet all the citizens seem to believe he's been running things for years. Going on that logic, who's really the "evil Layton" - Clive himself? Don Paolo, in his Layton disguise?]]

* Was the reason why the Melina inside Jenis was different than the one implanted into Emily because Jenis accepted Melina's memories? Also, how could Melina choose to just "move on" at the end if "she", as in her memories, was just a bunch of electronic information? Does that mean her father actually did something like a soul upload and not just a memory upload? If that was the case, the ending would make sense because then it would be essentially her spirit leaving Jenis to leave for the afterlife. We were told, however, that Jenis was only implanted with Melina's memories and that she accepted it. Thus, Melina shouldn't have been able to disappear like that. In all likeliness, that Melina retreated to the furthest recesses of Jenis' mind so that she wouldn't bother Jenis.

** [[spoiler:Clive]] was probably known between the scientists and politicians, since almost everybody in the room was involved with the [[spoiler:killer time travel.]]

** I figure they're actors hired to play the part of people living 10 years in the future. In fact, most people don't mention it's the future(it makes no sense, after all) nor events in the past 10 years, so maybe they don't even know it's supposed to be 10 years in the future.

* In the first game, Baron Reinhold apparently created enough ridiculously human robots to populate the town of St. Mystere, and had his daughter grow up among them, to the point that they're really the only ones she can call family. And then set up the inheritance such that if anyone takes it, the robots will stop functioning and will essentially die. And Flora and Layton can't have that. So the question is, did the Baron ''intentionally'' set things up so that ''the entirety of his family's estate and wealth'' will go to waste? And he prides himself on ''intelligence''?
** As noted in WMG, this may have been a SecretTestOfCharacter. Makes sense to me imo.
*** The whole town is a SecretTestOfCharacter. Proving that Layton and Flora are good people? Fine. Doing it in a way that ensures that she'll never see a cent of her inheritance if she ''passes''? Not so fine.
*** The test isn't about ensuring she has wealth to live comfortably. The test is about ensuring she has love to live well. Besides, if they -really- need the money, they can ask the robots if it's okay to take the money.

** They are obviously subconsiously deriving information from the environment. See examples of the 50 year old photographs; it's likely those actually existed in the room.
