* Players are disappointed that you can't get Francesca De Santis to kill Silvio Caruso after she discovers he encoded her DNA to be used by the virus in World of Tomorrow. However, the virus is still uncompleted and Ether would still need Caruso. Additionally, Caruso's death would cause a police investigation, and the government would likely repossess the villa, either of which could blow the cover on the project. De Santis's to kill Caruso may not be hesitance or hubris, but PragmaticVilliany to prevent the virus from being discovered.

* Think of all the servants and guards at Villa Caruso that are now unemployed of their master's death.

** If 47 electrocuted Jordan Cross with the faulty mic (laying the blame on the band) and blew Ken Morgan up with the tuk-tuk (which would blamed on Morgan himself for [[TooDumbToLive not noticing the oil pool beside the tuk-tuk]]), this scenario would be avoided.

* [[spoiler: Agent Smith]] is trapped in a freezer in the morgue. If you complete the mission without saving him, that means he would stay in there......

* Providence asking for the names of all ICA's active agents is kind of funny when one of the agency's biggest assets doesn't have one. They'll have next to nothing about the trigger man behind their failed coup d'état and super virus.[[spoiler: Soders]] is probably keeping it post operation partly for [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness th]][[RewardedAsATratorDeserves at]] too.

* The target of the level "The Icon" is the director of a movie. The target of the level [[spoiler: "[[MeaningfulName Situs Inversus]]"]] is a director [[spoiler: of the ICA.]]

* A former lightweight boxer, Viktor Novikov's favourite cocktail is the Bare Knuckle Boxer.

* The operating table [[spoiler: Soders]] lays upon resembled the underside of a spider. Spiders consume their prey by liquefying their insides and sucking all the fluids out, one of the many ways to end him.
* The thirteenth elusive target contract has two targets, so it counts as elusive targets #13 and #14, a clever way of averting the number.

* Viktor Novikov's favourite drink is a Bare Knuckle Boxer. Viktor was a lightweight boxer in his youth.
* Sanguine is the name of Viktor Novikov's fashion brand. Sanguine means optimistic/positive in bad situations, which is the personality trait that differentiates himself from Dalia Margolis. That explains why he is the face of Sanguine instead of IAGO.
** Sanguine also correlates to (and is symbolized by) blood.

* Why can't 47 bid when he attends the IAGO auction as Tobias Reaper? He didn't have any money with him (except maybe some coins) and he doesn't want to risk blowing his cover in case Dalia wanted his details as part of a business transition.

* Penelope Graves is morally fluid, empathic and betrayed her organization after finding immoral activity in the higher ups, quite similarly to Diana in ''Absolution''. Coincidentally, Diana's middle name is Penelope.

* The thirteenth elusive target contract has two targets, so it counts as elusive targets #13 and #14 than elusive target #13, a clever way of averting the number.

* In the Patient Zero campaign, Rebecka the cultist canonically dies. She is either collateral damage in '''The Source''' or committed group suicide with the rest of the cult. Neither option is particularly pleasant to think of.

* You can impersonate staff members, security guards and occasionally high profile individuals during the missions. A lot of innocent people could have been taken down just because 47 had to sneak around.

* Silvio Caruso says he is building the superweapon for the weak and powerless. Since he doesn't expand on it and the detective says he is collecting DNA samples of Silvio's childhood bullies, Silvio likely referring to himself as "the weak and powerless".

* Penelope Graves, who is morally fluid, empathic and betrayed her organization after finding immoral activity in the higher ups, is quite similar to Diana in ''Absolution''. Diana's middle name is Penelope.
* Since the Shadow Client is fighting against TheIlluminati, the mission is called *Freedom Fighters*.

** You can impersonate several people during the mission such as Jason Portman and several members of the hospital staff. A lot of innocent people could get taken down just because 47 had to sneak around.
*** To be fair, [[{{Jerkass}} Jason Portman]] has it coming.

* If Dr. Laurent kills [[spoiler:Soders]], it's very likely that he'll not be allowed to work as a surgeon never again, and might even be facing charges for murder. After all, not only did he fail to save the patient, he did it intentionally while under the influence of drugs. WasItReallyWorthIt

* After the deaths of their two most high-profile guests, the Himmapan hotel staff and/or security are likely to be fired by Ms Mookjai. Ms Mookjai herself is unlikely to still be manager, judging by how her now deceased guest is the son of her superior.

** Making Cross kill Morgan and then drowning him afterwards could make it look like Cross went nuts, killed Morgan, and then offed himself out of guilt.

* After the deaths of their two most high-profile guests, the hotel staff and/or security are likely to be fired by Ms Mookjai. Ms Mookjai herself is unlikely to still be manager, judging by how her now deceased guest is the son of her superior.

* After the deaths of their two most high-profile guests, the hotel staff and/or security are likely to be fired by Ms Mookjai for not maintaining the hotel's safety (for hotel staff) or failing to protect the guests (for security). Ms Mookjai herself is unlikely to still be manager, judging by how her now deceased guest is the son of her superior.

* Why do civilian accident kills count against Silent Assassin rating, unlike in ''Blood Money''.? Maybe Travis was in charge during BM, which would mean that he just didn't care about any civilian deaths unless they had to be covered up, something that "accidents" don't require. Following Travis's death, he was replaced by people with more strict rules about civilian casualities. Note that this works with the prologue too, since ''Codename 47'' forced a restart if there were too many civilian casualities, and Travis took over those guys later. This might not match info provided by ''Absolution'' or the books, I can't remember the details of the former and I've never read the latter.
