1[[AC: FridgeBrilliance]]
2* Sheriff Pope's hostility to the Burke's actually becomes incredibly justified when we learn his backstory. He was an incredibly devoted security guard for David Pilcher, who regarded Pilcher as the reason he wasn't on the streets. For Pilcher, he kidnapped hundreds, maybe thousands of people, killed many more in Reckonings, and acted as Pilcher's personal attack dog. So when Pilcher decides that they need a new sheriff is needed, one who isn't associated with fear and death, how exactly is Pope going to react?
3* Everything that everyone says about Evans makes more sense with the revelations of the Reckonings. His widow says he killed himself, and she saw it. He did kill himself... by bringing the reckoning upon himself. And his killing would have been public, as a statement, which is why she saw it and why Beverly knew where the body was. It was left there as a message.

5* Given the revelation in episode 5 that [[spoiler: it's actually the year 4000 and Wayward Pines is apparently the last remaining human settlement on earth, or at least in America,]] one wonders where exactly the diner gets their bottles of ketchup delivered from.
6** From the reserves that were amassed, one can guess, in that spaceship-like thing shown in episode 3.
7* In the second season, [[spoiler: food storage]] is a big problem. So naturally [[spoiler: reproduction]] is the answer.
8[[AC: FridgeHorror]]
9* After seeing Pilcher [[spoiler: take out the power from the town and electric fence to allow the Abbies to swarm in, and then thinking about the fate of Group A,]] one wonders that maybe they ''didn't'' go mad, and that Pilcher may have pulled [[MoralEventHorizon this stunt]] before...
10** Unlikely. If he had Pam wouldn't have been so shocked.
