* {{Foreshadowing}}: Archer's said to have died of a heart attack, and his behavior at the start seems consistent with this. However, the camera also shows us, as he dies, that his face has turned purplish and his eyes are severely bloodshot - generally not physical signs of a heart attack. [[spoiler:A poisoning, however...]] William even mentions at the funeral to Lauren how surprising it was, considering that their father was always healthy as a horse.
