* OutsideContextProblem: Trueman can control people with astrology using something called the Ancient Lights, despite it supposedly being impossible — even Mr. Smith is unable to deal with it since astrology breaks the laws of physics. Finally, the gang theorise that the Ancient Lights come from a universe that predates ours, one where the laws of physics are different and astrology worked. And then Luke, who wasn't born and therefore has no astrological sign to allow the Ancient Lights to control him, breaks Trueman's plan, essentially making him an Outside Context Problem to the Outside Context Problem.
