* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The series' final video, which was uploaded two years after the "Retrogression" video journal, was deleted in December 2023. Unless you have a copy of it saved somewhere, good luck trying to watch it.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The final episode of the series was supposed to be much more dramatic and engaging than the infamous "drawing of an egg" scene that was ultimately released: there was a third episode filmed during the EMH crossover, in which HABIT tortured Michael/Patrick by waterboarding him in a bathtub; according to Evan Jennings, HABIT behaved much more animalistically than in previous videos, and Patrick actually managed to ''piss him off'' by mentioning [[BerserkButton Doctor Corenthal]] (either by telling HABIT that he will never stop the Doc, or that the Doc will stop him). Unfortunately, Austin Harris misplaced the SD card containing the footage, leaving the cast to scramble to film something to finish off the series. The only [[OrphanedReference remnant of the video]] is a scene in the WebVideo/TribeTwelve video "Severance"[[labelnote:note]]which ''also'' crosses over with EMH[[/labelnote]] where Michael briefly appears in HABIT's bathroom, coughing profusely, with a stab wound in his side.

* CreatorBacklash: Dylan Sindelar eventually came to share the fans' dislike of the untitled video uploaded in 2016 that was meant to be the finale of the series, to the point where [[spoiler: it would eventually be taken off the channel sometime in 2023]].

* AllThereInTheManual: Dylan did an interview with a fan, during which he [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LTivZsJ7kz6ynEGcUxu6K3Cnmdt-_nZ_l39fIkxqYVY/edit?usp=drivesdk revealed]] the true nature of Patrick and his relation to Michael. Among other things, he confirmed that Michael/Patrick has existed for centuries; that Patrick is the fragment that stores all of their memories and knowledge (akin to a hard drive), while Michael is like a newborn, starting each iteration afresh. He also confirmed that Patrick is able to see the Slender Man's true form: a [[EldritchAbomination "giant, colossus looking thing"]] of which Slender Man is but a small fragment.

* AuthorAppeal: By Dylan Sindelar's own admission (see above), Patrick was inspired by the Eleventh Doctor and [[Film/TheDarkKnight The Joker]].

There was a third episode filmed during the crossover with EMH, which involved HABIT torturing Michael by waterboarding him in a bathtub; according to Evan Jennings, HABIT acts much more animalistic than in previous videos, and Michael actually manages to ''piss off'' HABIT by mentioning [[BerserkButton Doctor Corenthal]] (either telling HABIT that he will never stop the Doc, or telling him that the Doc will stop ''him'').

* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Shaun was [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal]] in the early 2014 episodes in order to accommodate the actor who portrays him moving cross-country. Michael was later [[spoiler: abducted and tortured by HABIT offscreen]] for the same reason.
* RecycledSet: Sharp-eyed viewers will recognize the house where Michael and Shaun live in the early episodes as the same one that appears in numerous videos from WebVideo/EverymanHYBRID [[spoiler: as [[EldritchGeometries the collective home of the cast]]]], and as [[spoiler:HABIT's safe house]] in both series. The cast members of the two series were housemates at the time, and took turns using the rental property for filming purposes (often cleverly framing shots so as to disguise the location).
