** The first half of "Last Lullaby" shares the same tune as "Nothing Good", to the lyrics: "What a pity to behold, rest now tormented soul, [[AnguishedDeclarationOfLove don't you know I would've have loved you the way you were: Whole]]". It's a lovely (if bittersweet) reprise to the song, reflecting that the Woman realizes [[SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers there was never anything wrong with love]], and it's time she had closure (if to a [[MercyKill deadly extent]]) with the Elktaur.

* The last we saw of him, the Beartaur attemped to turn Horse into a part of his collection, and didn't exactly take kindly to the Herd's presence in his cave. Now however, we're treated to an unexpectedly wholesome side of him after it's revealed the Mysterious Woman now crashes at his place.
** It's immediately apparent that the Woman isn't exactly the best house guest, and the Beartaur doesn't hesitate to address that. However, he doesn't fly off the handle at her and communicates these issues and his stance with her calmly and clearly. Likewise, the Woman, while politely asking if it's okay to discuss this later, isn't outright ignoring what she's hearing.
*** The Beartaur even concedes to discuss the mail issue later, in light of the Hootenanny taking precedence.
** While it's not explicitly clear what exactly the Woman's relationship with the Beartaur is, it is clear that they both do care enough about the other to have one's best interests at heart and to consider the other's suggestions. The Beartaur offers that they attend the Hootenanny together and even playfully jests that the Woman might want to wear shoes again by the end of it. The Woman doesn't verbally respond, but her small smile and quirked eyebrow tells enough about what she thinks of the idea.

* In a way, the fact that the Elktaur [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy calmly accepts his death at the hands of the person he loved the most]], the Mysterious Woman. He knows that he's done too much to her and countless others as both the General and the Nowhere King for their relationship to ever recover, so he allows her to do what she needs to do in order to be free from his influence: put him out of his misery.

** Fridge-Heartwarming: The fact that the Mysterious Woman found friends among [[FatBastard Beartaur]] and [[MoodyMount Becky Apples]] fits in with the show's theme about how you can always find friends and [[FamilyOfChoice new family]] in the midst of adversity. She's gone through so much (learning her husband was a [[LiarRevealed fraud]], losing her kingdom and [[FallenPrincess throne]] to war), yet in the end, she managed to find companionship with [[BirdsOfAFeather fellow antagonists]], just as Horse found friends in Wammawinks' herd.

* Zulius gets mad when Horse does a rage-quit on the show, on her behalf. She aptly points out that they did what the influencer wanted, but the birdtaurs reneged on the deal. Realizing that the birdtaurs are being selfish and entitled, Zulius plays to their egos. He says they can insert themselves into the narrative because it's not over. They can join the fight against the Nowhere King and take him down. He makes it clear that he did it for Horse.
* As they're being escorted to regular ground, Horse asks Wammawink if she made the right choice to stay and help them rather than go with Rider to warn the General. Wammawink reassures Horse that the herd is grateful that Horse chose to protect a world that wasn't hers, and that she admires how Horse never gives up.
