* Joyce needing glasses in this verse when she didn't have them in the Walkyverse makes sense. In the Walkyverse the Head Alien probably fixed her eyesight before it got bad enough to need glasses. She has no Head Alien here to do that.

* During the "whiteboard ding-dong bandit" case, Carla finds the sharpie penis drawn on her door and angrily declares it a hate-crime. But when she notices that ''everyone's'' doors have been hit and she wasn't being singled out, she immediately brightens up and declares it ActuallyPrettyFunny. [[spoiler: Later we find out Carla is trans, so she had a good reason for assuming the worst when she found a penis drawn on her door.]]

door.



* It is stated explicitly in the comic [[spoiler: before Ross kidnaps her at gunpoint]] that Becky is 18, meaning she is a legal adult. Ross apparently wanted to drag her off to some kind of [[CureYourGays conversion therapy.]] The “pray away the gay camps” teenagers get forced into are hellish enough, but at those places you can, at least in theory, leave once you become a legal adult. Any place Ross would have taken her to would have had to be the kind of place that would have been ''okay'' with holding an adult against their will and trying to brainwash them into being heterosexual. Such a place would likely be incredibly shady or even completely underground, meaning they could get away with other crimes, such as physical torture and sexual abuse. When people leave - ''if they leave'' - they typically come out with severe mental scars, often DrivenToSuicide. [[spoiler: Amazi-Girl, Joyce, and Sal saved Becky from a true FateWorseThanDeath.]]

* How is Becky still able to squat in the dorms after dealing with the cops? [[http://www.dumbingofage.com/2015/comic/book-6/01-to-those-whod-ground-me/hi-2/ She's been shown talking to one]], meaning they had her statement but in order to go to trial, they will need her testimony as she would be the key witness as the only person to witness her father's entire rampage, plus Ross has the right to face his accuser. The cops would have needed to grab her contact info so the prosecution could talk to her while they build their case. Was she able to get away with just giving them Joyce or Dina's phone number? (I'm speculating that would have been most likely).

** Becky tends to get 'blessed' by luck a lot...so it's likely that the cops simply did not care. She's white, has connections, and her dad did something terrible, so they 'looked the other way' at her squatting.
