* IKnewIt:
** [[spoiler:Helena]]'s survival was predicted by a large enough portion of the fanbase that there was a FanNickname for it: "The Ballpit of Denial". Ok, fair enough. What pushes this into truly eerie territory is the explanation for her survival: [[spoiler:she is a mirror twin, and her heart was on the reverse side of her body as everyone else's. This ''exact explanation'' was predicted by fans from the mere fact that she is left-handed; see [[http://happyjacq.tumblr.com/post/77534980729/ball-pit-is-gonna-love-me-right-now here]]]].
** [[spoiler: A few fans were correct in their prediction that the Leda and Castor originals were related -- in fact, they're siblings. Twins, even -- the original turns out to have been a genetic chimera who absorbed her male twin in the womb.]]
** A leaked set photo spoiled the Season 3 plot point of [[spoiler:Helena wiping out Pouchy and crew with his [[HoistByHisOwnPetard paper cutter blade]]]].
** Several fans (and apparently, the characters' actors themselves) speculated that [[spoiler:Beth and Art]] may have been romantically involved. The première of season 4 proved them right.
** That MK [[spoiler:is a Helsinki survivor]] was pretty widely guessed.
** [[spoiler:That Evie Cho's revelation of her plot against Leda would lead Rachel to move against her]] was also pretty widely guessed. To be fair, the showrunners telegraphed this well in advance of it actually happening with [[spoiler:Rachel]]'s DeathGlare at the revelation, so it's not even clear if it was intended to be a surprise. In retrospect, [[spoiler:Rachel's hallucination of a swan was also heavy foreshadowing on this point, since a swan is, of course, inextricably linked with the myth of Leda]].
