And he probably will, he will brainwash and/or remove a certain memory and make Mike his "son" and commander again.

It kind of makes more sense why he's his top priority over Kane. First the guy works with the people who destroyed his home, then after he quits, he becomes some kind of hero? Yeah, as someone with his own reason to despise KaneCo, [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou he probably wanted revenge against them first, and Mike is beating him to it.]] Besides, Mike's an easier target to go after before he starts gunning for Kane next.

That armor is bulky, and the voice is distorted, so it could be anyone under there. If Season 2 had happened, at some point the Burners would be chasing down some aggressive, pushy guy they ''thought'' was Red, only to find out that some quiet girl their own age who'd been following them the whole time was their real enemy.

* Maybe Kane was planning on introducing Julie and Mike when Mike graduated from protege to successor. Who knows: maybe he had an ArrangedMarriage planned, and didn't want LikeBrotherAndSister to occur as a result of [[WestermarckEffect raising them together]]. After all, who better to present as a potential suitor than the person who would ensure that [=KaneCo=] stayed in power?

[[WMG: Texas knew his story was bogus]]
We--and the KaneCo employees--are supposed to believe that Texas is just that conceited and/or dumb as to believe he single-handedly took care of every threat to Motorcity thus far. That his memory is so twisted by his ego, he actually believes his version of events is how everything went down. But when Texas is shown hard evidence that he ''didn't'' do everything he said he did, he isn't even slightly phased. He isn't surprised or disappointed that he isn't as awesome as his story made him out to be. He just calmly tells Kane that the Burners are going to rescue him and take down Kane's forces, which happens not a minute later. Seems to me like the whole story was just a distraction to stall for time until the Burners could find Texas and rescue him.

Perhaps he was the nonfaceless goon with blonde hair next to Mike. Maybe he looked up to Mike and after Mike left, he probably hated him so much and sought to obsessively kill him, taking on the markings of the destroyed buildings to remind him of Mike's betrayal. This explains why he hates Mike exclusively, and would easily ally with Kane, who's soldiers also helped destroy the house. Mentions of losing his home could just be lies, or guilt tripping Mike.

[[WMG: Keir is Beck]]
Consider this: We know that many of the crew from Tron: Uprising worked on Motorcity. We also know that there's a very popular theory that Rinzler, from Tron: Legacy, is Beck. We also know that the third Tron film, at least at some point, was about programs leaving the Grid. We also know that it's very likely that Motorcity takes place After the End. So after Beck comes back from being Rinzler, he gets out of the Gird, becomes weary with a stagnant life, and travels the world. The end comes, he's in Detroit, Kane takes over...

* The thing about that is that we never see Red, or rather, there is never a lingering on any of the fleeing members for us to assume which one became him (unlike the goon who looks like he could have some importance on the sole account of being distinguishable). While, yes, Mike makes a guess, Red confirming it could just be another means to hurt him psychologically.

[[WMG: Kane is a FallenHero.]]
It goes like this: before he rebuilt Detroit, Kane ran around the ruins fighting other gangs and trying to keep the peace, like how the Burners do now. But, along the way, he realized that, if you really want to improve people's lives, you need infrastructure. So, Kane built his company to provide shelter, food, and power to the masses, but he forgot why he was doing all this in the first place, and so became a petty tyrant who wastes resources on brawling in the slums.

[[WMG: Julie was an illegitimate child]]
Possibly Kane had an affair a long time ago, being something of a celebrity and all (or during the time he was working his way up), therefore had [[TheMistress a mistress]]. She became pregnant and initially didn't tell him or had lost contact with him, until she was dying and sent Julie to live with Kane OR after she was born, her mother [[DoorstopBaby abandoned her with Kane]]. This could mean Kane didn't initially ever plan on becoming a parent but grew to care about Julie. This could also explain why only three people know she is his daughter, as having an illegitimate child could be bad for publicity and the public knows Kane has never married.

[[WMG: The Duke used to be an actual rock star before the apocalypse]]
A super rich and famous rock star, which would explain how wealthy he is compared to the rest of the residents and gangs of Motorcity, and to an extent his huge ego. Not wanting to have to live under Kane's rules, Duke took all his wealth underground and set up his own little domain, as opposed to working up from scratch like most of the other gangs seem to have done.

* Confirmed. Kane says in "Vega" that he keeps her identity a secret so she won't be a target for his enemies.
