According to the myths, Galahad was raised by his maternal grandfather, and didn't meet Lancelot until he was a young man. While Lancelot was his biological father, he wouldn't have been Jenkins' primary parental figure. Meanwhile, Lancelot was tricked into sleeping with the woman who would become Galahad's mom, betrayed King Arthur, and was indirectly responsible for the fall of Camelot. Not only that, but when Galahad arrived at Camelot, he overshadowed his father--he's generally considered to be the best fighter of all the Knights, the only person to ever beat Lancelot in a fair fight, not to mention being the purest, most worthy of the Grail, etc. So naturally they wouldn't have been on good terms even then.]]

* At the beginning of the series, the LITs warn Jenkins that Eve "can and will kick [his] ass" if he doesn't comply, and he gives in immediately. After learning about his true identity (and just how dangerous he can be when pushed), his capitulating seems less like not wanting to get beat up, and more out of genuine respect for the Guardian's will.

** This also makes sense in that it makes a person "The worst version of herself". Cassandra's pain and suffering could eventually overcome her compassion.

* It's never stated where the government picked up the Atlantean Thaumatite which caused the "video game" loop. However, given that we know DOSA has a bad habit of picking up magical items without fully understanding what they're doing, it's a pretty safe bet they were responsible.

* Jenkins states that he went through a nasty mid-life identity crisis during the Elizabethan era. What could have caused this? Well, part of it at least might be due to the fact that ''Le Morte d'Arthur'' was published in the late fifteenth century. Assuming it took the guy who's mostly a hermit a few decades or so to get around to reading it, it would make sense that that book stirred up lots of painful old memories.

* The plan in "The Wrath of Chaos" seems like it has a lot of moving parts, but the brilliant thing is that it was far better planned than one might realize. As Eve notes, sending the Librarians to rescue Jenkins would ensure that the four of them are available even if things don't work out for Eve and Flynn. Had Apep not possessed the head of DOSA, they could have dealt with them and then locked up the casket somewhere. Eve giving DOSA Medusa's head allows them to capture Jenkins without hurting him, but also built trust between her and the General. And so on.

* The three trials Jenkins and the gang have to get through in "Some Dude Named Jeff" seem oddly specifically tailored to the party. However, that's the ''point''--the Library wants Jenkins to get back in, and therefore modified the tasks to ones each of them could accomplish. Jenkins himself hints at this when he states that the chambers modify themselves based on who is trying to get in.
