\n** It's likely that what triggered the connection in the patron's mind was the fact that the media was giving the perp was sounded more like a super villain name than a regular serial criminal name. Kevin wasn't named "The Philadelphia Zoo Cannibal" or something like that, he was dubbed ''"The Horde"''.

\n** Then again, the true extent of [[spoiler: Glass' terrorism]] might not be known to the general public. Considering just how long [[spoiler: Elijah was looking for his antithesis, he must have kept up his double life for a while. The Eastrail 177 crash may be all that the public knows him for.]] So it's reasonable to assume that the diner patron drew the connection due to the large loss of life occurring in a public place due to the actions of a man acting alone.

[[AC: Fridge Logic]]
* The WhamLine at the end of the movie does the job of [[spoiler:revealing ''Split'' takes place in the same universe as ''Unbreakable'']] so well that it's easy to miss that the line itself is nonsensical. Kevin is a mentally disturbed man with several personalities who became convinced he was a superhuman feral beast, kidnapped three girls, [[spoiler:ate two of them and killed his psychiatrist]]. On the other hand, [[spoiler:Elijah/Mr Glass is a man in a wheelchair who engineered mass disasters like train crashes and fires that killed hundreds]]. How exactly does one remind you of the other? It would be like watching the news about 9/11 and saying "You know what this reminds me of? Jack the ripper."
