* During the talks about the Arcanum, Markus reveals that Kitten is worried about the Arcanum finding out about his hunting activities with Markus and his family. Markus is confident that whatever punishment the organization would inflict will be as toothless as their hands-off approach to studying the supernatural. But Harry has a warning: the Arcanum has and will put out out hits on anyone they deem too problematic. If Markus' family isn't careful, then [[UnPerson more than just their research will be snuffed out]]...

* During the talks about the Arcanum, Markus reveals that Kitten is worried about the Arcanum finding out about his hunting activities with Markus and his family. Markus is confident the organization is too toothless to inflict a serious punishment, given their counterintuitively hands-off approach to studying the supernatural. But Harry has a warning: the Arcanum has and will put out out hits on anyone they deem too problematic. If Markus' family isn't careful, then [[UnPerson more than just their research will be snuffed out]]...

* The final scuffle between D's family and the Blacklaws abruptly ends when everyone hears screaming coming from the Chapter House's upper floors. They find the source of the noise.... and it is ''gruesome.'' Whatever happened left Giles barricaded within a closet, Spit cowering in the fetal position on the floor, covered in blood, and Fatigue ''utterly mutilated,'' his remains sprawled across the room in a grotesque display. Everyone witnessing the atrocity can only stare in silence, all exhibiting so many emotions at once. Special mention goes to D, who has a look of angry shock, Brock, who looks like he wants to inflict the same thing on the person responsible, and Occam, the last to arrive, positively '''overflowing''' with [[TranquilFury cold fury.]]

* During the talks about the Arcanum, Markus reveals that Kitten is worried about the Arcanum finding out about his hunting activities with Markus and his family. Markus doesn't think anything serious will happen; he finds the organization toothless because of their counterintuitively distant regard for the supernatural, so whatever punishment they inflict on Kitten must be similarly ineffective. But Harry has a warning: the Arcanum has and will put out out hits on anyone they deem too problematic. If Markus' family aren't careful, then [[UnPerson more than just their research will be snuffed out]]...

* During the talks about the Arcanum, Markus brings up Kitten being worried about what the Arcanum would do if they found out about their activities with Markus thinking that it is very unlikely that the Arcanum would actually do anything given how toothless they seem. Harry remarks that, in the past, the Arcanum has not been above putting out hits on people and having them taken out if they become too problematic. Given how much effort the Arcanum went to wipe out evidence of the Family's research, it does hint they are not quite as harmless as they seem [[UnPerson and are prepared to do the same to the family themselves if they become too much of a problem]].

* THE ENDING. Fatigue is found ''utterly mutilated'' while Spit is left on the floor, covered in blood while whimpering in terror. The shots of the characters saw it all.

* The scene where Kitten has to close the office door. The tension is almost at Hitchcockian levels.

--> '''Kitten:''' Wait, stop!
--> '''Pyotr:''' "Wait, '''[[EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor STOMP]]?'''" Well, I was gonna ease up, but if you ''insist...''

** Also doubles as a stealth TheReasonYouSuckSpeech as Door basically calls out the others for [[HeelRealisation instigating in the brutality]].

* Polydora finds D's alias of "Kevin" familiar, and it's not until she reconvenes with her boss why that is. It turns out she's ''in direct contact with the Regent,'' and they both muse over the coincidence of her former accountant's name popping up in her life again. In reality, it's anything ''but'' a coincidence, and Big-D's forged identity may have made things harder for himself and the ''actual'' Kevin under his care.

* D's decision to use Kevin's name as an alias may have backfired; Polydora not only finds it familiar, but is ''in direct contact with the Regent.'' They deem it a coincidence when they reconvene, but they still intend to keep tabs on Big-D--who may have just made things harder for himself and Kevin.

* For once, [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Big D is completely on the back foot with this situation.]] Considering how absurdly knowledgeable he is about anything and everything in the setting, the fact this entire experience leaves him so rattled says something.

* The entire scenario is surreal, working on some sort of demented dream logic. Big D falls into a tunnel and awakes to discover an ''entire store'' beneath the one he just entered. There's a strange humanoid creature inside that can seemingly only speak over the intercom and keeps alternating between generic supermarket terminology and blatantly cryptic riddles about "growth." Worst of all, the "blender" he purchased appears to have traveled ''outside the dream'' with him.

* D’s constant use of Kevin’s name as an alias may have backfired as the store manager is in ''direct contact with the Regent'' and is now on their radar.

** There is another moment that definitely confirms that Chapman is a ghoul prior to that. After Big D jokingly boasts about having a Bruce Campbell jawline and Chapman says he likes The Evil Dead, D panicks for a moment and then backtracks after he realizes Chapman is talking about the movie, not the vampire. Then just as Chapman is about to continue, his face suddenly '' contorts'', eyes bulging and teeth barring. It comes out of nowhere for a split second. And on a rewatch, it is quite obvious thats Chapman's withdrawal kicking in.

* Big-D's reaction to The Blue Man [[AmbiguousSituation either revealing his true form or being possessed]] is to recoil in horror and scream about how what he's seeing can't be true because the face he sees belongs to someone he believes to be dead. Given the context, a very likely possibility outside of the guesses towards a [[TheFairFolk Changeling]], some kind of Mage, or Houdini is ''the Methuselah he thought he killed.'' None of the options sound good when it comes to a creature Big-D ''truly fears''.
