As a Fridge subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.
Fridge Brilliance:
- Right at the end of the first chase, a second APB is heard for the red Subaru Baby is driving, presumably because the cops realized they'd gotten tricked into chasing some random red Chevy.
- Baby uses a dictaphone to record conversations that he has with other people and later mixes them into songs, much in the same way that he himself hears phrases from the television or other people and uses them in his own conversations later. He's a human sampler.
- Baby's reluctance to speak and ability to read lips are never explicitly explained, but are obviously due to spending his life listening to music in earphones and being raised by a deaf foster father. His need to audibly converse with others has been limited.
- Baby and Debora's first date starts at a laundromat. Laundromats are loud due to the noise of the washing machines, which helps drown out Baby's tinnitus.
- Doc expresses perfect confidence that Baby understood his entire speech in spite of wearing earbuds through it all. They've already done a number of jobs together, so this has obviously come up before.
- Doc says he and Baby first ran into each other when Baby stole his Mercedes. When Doc is killed by Buddy, what does Baby hop into with Debora as a getaway car? Doc's Mercedes.
- Baby's seemingly endless supply of sunglasses and iPods are the spoils of his lifelong career as a car thief.
- At first it seems like a stupid move for Baby to never cover his face (besides wearing big sunglasses) like the rest of the heist crews, thus leaving his identity exposed. However, as their getaway driver he needs his peripheral vision - a mask would get in the way of him properly doing his job.
- Misplacing his shotgun was just a matter of time for JD - he was the only armed crewmember who did not wear a sling to secure his weapon.
- When Baby is reciting the plan for the second heist, one of the instructions is that the participants buy their disguises separately to avoid suspicion. The fact that the three masks are all of Austin Powers means JD bought all three of them instead of just his own, which is bound to raise suspicion. Yet another sign of JD being a major liability that had to be taken care of.
- At first, Bats' educated guess about Buddy and Darling's backstory seems like just that — a guess. However, Doc told Bats the story of how a driver — Baby — once lost the police in a famous chase, a story Doc didn't bother telling Griff. Bats is also canny enough to notice the police are behind the weapons deal, and paranoid enough that Doc dropping his real name — Leon — is enough to get him to fall into line. In short, Bats didn't figure out Buddy and Darling from their habits, but from having previously heard their reputation.
- Baby mentions the T. Rex song "Debora" to Debora, but pronounces the group's name like "Treks" - Debora doesn't know the song but does know it's pronounced "tee rex". This fits both of their characterizations- Baby listens to a lot of music but doesn't often get to talk to others about it, so he might have no idea how to even pronounce the names of certain artists or songs he likes. Meanwhile, Debora might not be as familiar with T. Rex but has heard their name said aloud before.
Fridge Horror:
- When the second robbery has the crew be forced to abandon their getaway car and force out a woman out of her car as a replacement, she says she has a child, and Bats angrily yells, "I got one too!" Assuming he's telling the truth, let's hope he's a Disappeared Dad.
- On a lighter note, he could just be sarcastically referring to either Baby or JD.
