Headscratchers / Green Eggs and Ham (2019)

• In "Goat", why did Sam and Guy think dumping green eggs and ham in the Goat's motorcycle engine was such a good idea? Giving him the (fake) Chickeraffe suitcase would've been enough, since the Goat would be able to go straight to Snerz, which would've given Sam and Guy more time to escape. Wrecking his engine only pissed him off and made him chase after Sam and Guy all over again.
  • Probably because they were fooling the Goat with one of Guy's inventions, which have a habit of exploding. Guy would know he had limited time before his invention explodes, so he wanted to make harder for the Goat to double back and chase after them.

• Towards the end of '2nd Serving', Pam receives new mission orders, these to terminate Sam, shortly after he left to retrieve the MacGuffin. Who sent this order and why? No one in Pam's organization would really yet know Sam had joined her, and they could not have known of his self-assigned impulsive new mission. Her butler warns that once accepted, the mission must be fulfilled, but then obviously, she does no such thing. Was this part of the rush to conclude the series?
• It makes perfect sense for the BADGUYS to catch the zookeeper in a net and dangle him over slapping turtles to get their information in the first episode, since they're, well, bad guys. It stops making sense when it's revealed they're a legitimate force working to protect animals whom the zookeeper would have every reason to want to cooperate with, not to mention that they should have been held accountable for assaulting zoo personnel this way. The show does not explain this later, despite it being used as a Red Herring to fool the viewer about the BADGUYS' true nature.
• In a similar vein, the zookeeper appears to not know what the BADGUYS acronym stands for, despite working with animals for a living and said BADGUYS being specifically dispatched to bring the Chickeraffe back to the zoo.
  • It's possible that both of these answer each other. The zookeeper, for whatever reason, doesn't know what BADGUYS stands for (maybe he's just dense or out of the loop). So he thought they were actual bad guys, and so was uncooperative with them, resulting in them interrogating him the way they did because he was making himself seem suspicious.
  • Also, just because the BADGUYS aren't the villains doesn't mean they're completely nice. Remember, they're Officers searching for a dangerous criminal and a stolen animal that may be vicious; McWinkle is on his last mission, and has seen enough animal crooks that he's become gruff, and Gluntz is following in his foot steps. McWinkle and Gluntz are using whatever methods they have to do their job, and while they aren't trying to hurt anyone, they're on a short time limit with one of the most notorious crooks in the land, so if they gotta play rough to get the Chickeraff, they gotta.
