* KnowWhenToFoldEm: With The Rolling Giant on the loose and relentlessly hunting Wyatt, [[spoiler:his initial ScrewThisImOuttaHere is thwarted by the original mall entrance being caved in. After discovering a safe office to take refuge in, he decides that locating an alternative exit and getting himself to safety is his top priority. Unfortunately, his first attempt to reach an emergency exit ends in him falling to his death. In ''Dispersal'', after the original fatal escape attempt replays at when the Giant crashes into the catwalk and damages some of the mall's structure, things play out as before except Wyatt avoids falling to his death this time. Wasting little time, Wyatt makes what seems to be an adrenaline-fueled sprint up the newly-found stairwell tunnels and reaches the surface, returns to his vehicle and drives away in resignation.]]

[[spoiler:Time is apparently reversed to allow Wyatt to successfully hop to the escape stairwell he lethally failed to reach in the previous timeline. This allows for a new ending where Wyatt escapes back to his car and leaves the anomaly site.

** Part 3 can be seen as more of a {{Pastiche}} of the FoundFootage episodes of the Backrooms series, but there are key differences that flip some things around. The basics are all there: Protagonist gets trapped in a nightmarish, otherworldly liminal space while filming a video, and they get stalked and chased around said space by a mysterious and seemingly hostile entity. However, unlike the biological Bacteria entity, the main antagonist is a haunted mechanical construct who exhibits malicious traits and can even outright ''teleport''. The mall itself also seems to have a sentience as the place suddenly powers up and starts playing music and the entrance that Wyatt entered from is [[spoiler:replaced with a wall of debris]].
