** What his exact goal was in ''Airship'' is likely governed by SchrodingersGun; Early on in the ''Government Supported Private Investigator'' route, Charles outright says that the point of the mission is to find evidence against them. For the ''Relentless Bounty Hunter'' scenario, him capturing the Toppat leader [[FridgeBrilliance could have been among the crimes that he was subsequently pardoned for]]--''he'' did that, not the Army, so you could argue the latter is technically not guilty. As for the ''Pure Blooded Thief'' ending, I imagine that big ruby held a similar importance to the diamond in the previous game, so the fact that the Toppat clan had it in their possession was probably sufficient proof. Granted, they didn't know this until they saw Henry with it, but considering the events of ''Bank'' and ''Diamond'', it wouldn't have been too much of a stretch for them to assume that, if Henry aborted their stated mission, it was probably for something valuable (especially since they noticed where in the ship--the vault--Henry had set off the alarm). It was a risk that they took, but not an unreasonable one.

* How is “Airship” at the last choice in Revenged a fail? Henry successfully kills Reginald there, but dies himself. The exact same thing happens with “Staple”. I know, in the real world, it can be explained by the fact that we can’t have both of them be correct, but there’s no in-universe explanation.

* I don't think Jewel Baron can be canon with Unseen Burglar. In Unseen Burglar, Henry seemingly sells the Tunisian Diamond, but in Jewel Baron, he still has it.
** Well, I was thinking about that kind of thing. Probably, unstated anywhere, there are actually combinations of endings prior to ''Airship'' that aren't canon, just like how ''Rescue'' and ''Betrayed'' are restricted to specific paths from ''Airship'' itself.
** I was initially wondering how he was able to sell it without someone raising the alarm about the guy who initially stole it. [[WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief If we accept that someone would take it without turning Henry in]], maybe he actually rented it out as opposed to selling it; so whoever's displaying it is paying him regularly for the privilege but he still technically owns it and can take it back whenever. He could have also done this with the Romanian Ruby for all we know, and leasing out the full set is probably gonna be more lucrative than the sum of the parts.

* In a similiar way to the RHM above, what was [[KnightOfCerebus the Warden]] thinking at the climax of the ''Toppat Recruits'' ending? Olyat was killed, and he's on a rocket, which is going into space. He could have, I dunno, joined the Toppat Clan as they have super-low recruitment standards, or just played dead for long enough to hide in the Toppat Rocket. Was he really that revenge-crazy that he decided to just kill Henry before thinking about his own survival?

* The ending to ''Free Man'' seems a little bit unclear. Obviously, the Toppats are stuck on the station without power, but that begs the question. How did the Right Hand Man get back onto the station if he was critically damaged (he literally lost his right arm) and was floating adrift in space? Without power, I doubt there's any easy method of entry into the station, and if he flew back to the station with his cybernetic enhancements, why doesn't he just fly back down to earth to grab Henry? You ''could'' make the argument that he'd burn up from atmospheric reentry, but for one, he can breathe in space with his augmentations, and two, if he can control his flying speed, I don't think terminal velocity should be an issue for him.

[[folder:Can't Pin the Toppat Clan to Any Crimes... But We'll Go After 'Em Regardless]]

* The Pardoned Pals ending makes no sense to me. Why would Henry join Charles? He has no reason to, Reginald already said he and Ellie can join the Toppat Clan if they just give the Romanian Ruby. Is he so greedy he can't give up the Ruby?
