1* What are "laserades"?
2** Cannonades with lasers, clearly.
3** Re-listening the the theme song, it seems to actually be "Come see the ''laser rays'' fire away!", but the singer kinda blurs together the last few words.
4* When Matt Tracker's car "Thunderhawk" goes into flight mode, the doors open upwards to become wings. Wouldn't it be extra windy in flight? Isn't it dangerous to have a vehicle designed for air combat have no armor on the sides (open doors) protecting the passengers?
5** [[TwoWordsObviousTrope Three words:]] "RuleOfCool"
6* "Assault on Liberty" has some of the biggest headscratchers. How on earth does no one hear the Statue being lowered beneath the island during the magic trick when it makes a lot of noise when coming up later?
7** Honest question - How do magicians make things 'disappear' during large versions of the trick in real life? Answer me that, and you have your answer.
8* One episode actually had VENOM agents witness MASK's headquarters, Boulder Hill, converting from its gas station mode, which begs the question - why didn't VENOM [[JustEatGilligan attack Boulder Hill in its gas station form]]?
9** Because that's the kind of cartoon it is. That's the equivalent of asking "Why doesn't anyone ever shoot the hero in the middle of the TransformationSequence?!"
10** The issue here wasn't TransformationIsAFreeAction. It was more about the villains returning afterwards to Boulder Hill and [[CombatPragmatism attacking it in its service station form]].
11*** Wouldn't it just transform back into a battlestation?
12*** I suspect this is partially the fact that, if Venom attacked it when it was in its service station form, they'd be seemingly attacking a defenceless gas station. Notably, Boulder Hill very rarely appears in the latter episodes, where both groups don't even try to hide who they are from each other.
13* If Dusty Hayes was an expert stunt driver, why did he work at at pizza place instead of as a stunt driver?
14** Better tips.
15*** Dusty was always shown making the pizzas, not delivering them, so he wouldn't get any tips.
16*** Depends on if he serves tables, were you can also get tips.
17** He probably was a stunt driver until he joined MASK with his job at the pizza being his secret cover.
18** I always thought he owns the pizza place [which would explain how he can just go without asking permission) so probably he save enough money from his stunt days and now has his own restaurant.
