Max's reaction could just as easily be a result of the fact that Kinga is pissed at him, rather than an indication that he didn't want to kill Jonah.

Instead, unsurprisingly, Kinga is ''furious'' with Max for not actually ''kill'' him.only ruining her wedding but also ''murdering their test subject''.

* ActorAllusion: In a remarkable show of restraint, Jonah and the bots only make ''two'' references to Creator/PeterCushing in his role as [[Film/ANewHope Governor Tarkin]]; they also call him "The [[Film/DrWhoAndTheDaleks Doctor Who]] nobody wants to cosplay as."
** Notably, the Tarkin references are essentially using Cushing's character voice from this film to do Tarkin's lines -- in an odd way, they're complimenting him on his acting in both roles.
** Also, his acting here isn't far removed from his approach to the non-canonical Doctor, making the reference that much funnier.
