** As said before in the Fridge section, Ellie says that she knows about the Toppat Clan during the credits of ''Pardoned Pals'' as well as the beginning of the ''Capital Gains''. '''Only''' the Toppat Clan, not the Government. The only routes where she did join them are the start of ''Triple Threat'' and one of the two endings in Thief/Allies, with the former Henry, being a government agent, has a new loyal ally which is enough for the government to allow her.
** It wouldn't really make sense for Ellie to contact the government and say "I was locked up at the Wall, a prisoner escaped and abandoned me. Can you guys help get revange?" Especially since Ellie herself is on the government watchlist.

* Alternatively, Why Ellie shouldn't join the government to get revenge on Henry in the Executive/Ghost route? She instead, when trying to hunting don the bad leader, appears to be willing to join the Toppat Clan (and eventually becomes their leader).

** Not only that, but it's the only one where Henry earns the most ire from the Wall pretty much immediately. As elaborated on on the Fridge page, every other ending has him gaining a decent head start in some way (''Rescue'' and ''Ghost''), or have him either presumed dead or actually dead (''Dead'' and ''Betrayed'', respectively). ''Allies'' is the only one where the Wall can immediately pursue Henry and keep track of him, on top of them having greater motivation to do so since that ending had Henry start a full blown PrisonRiot instead of quietly escaping on his own.

What exactly was it in the Thief/Allies route that was stopping Reginald, RHM, Dmitri and Grigori from just shooting Henry and Ellie as soon as Henry signaled for Charles's help? Dmitri and Grigori in particular had had their guns aimed right at the pair at the time.

** could be a post fail timeline where Henry never caught Galeforce's attention.

*** One thing to consider about South America: There is no road from Panama to Colombia thanks to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dari%C3%A9n_Gap Darién Gap]]. If the Dogobogo Jungle is in South America, Henry and Ellie would have had to sneak aboard a ship or ferry at some point, or else made a journey on foot through difficult terrain that would have taken several days (taking the bike with them, too).

* In the ''Special BROvert Ops'' path of ''Mission'', Sven manages to identify Henry as the one who "arrested" the Airship division of the Toppat Clan. How could he have known this? In ''GSPI'', the only ones who could have identified Henry are Benjamin Bourseious and Matthew Norbert (both of whom were blasted off the ship, presumably to their deaths), as well as the Right Hand Man (who was arrested along with the rest of the airship's division). The news report states that the Government was tipped off by an anonymous source, so how could Sven possibly know Henry was responsible?

** We don't know the route Henry took to get to the rocket base in the ''Executive/Allies'' route. Since Henry was the Toppat Clan leader, it's entirely possible that he knew about his agents nearby (like the ones seen at the bar at the start(s) of the missions immediately following ''Presumed Dead''), and his route to the jungle base used a more covert means than the motorcycle used by Ellie. With Henry and Ellie "vanished" to who-knows-where, the Wall wouldn't have any leads to follow.

** Every route that has you trying to stop the Toppat station from launching has the Government pulling out all the stops to do so (one line in the ''Government/Rescue'' route mentions they're "putting all their potatoes in one sack"), and Charles mentions that the flying saucer he uses to get you into space in the ''Government/Dead'' route is a "Secret Government Prototype". It's possible that the Government doesn't have much in the way of space-worthy technology (at least, nothing that can stand a chance against the Toppat station's defenses, which we learn from ''several'' Fails are nothing to sneeze at), and only started working on it once they failed to keep the Toppat station from launching. Most routes that start with the Toppat station already launched mention that it's only been in space for about a week or so, which isn't a lot of time for the Government to make much headway on that, letting Henry beat them to the punch.

*** Maybe in that specific timeline, he earned the Promotion for something else off-screen.

** Since he had no reasons to think Reginald had an hidden gun, he could afford himself to walk away like a badass for a few seconds before flying away with his wings before the airship crashes. He wanted Reginald to see him a bit before Reginald loses everything he has.

** I think that Freddy is a guard here seeing as otherwise, he'd be in a prison cell.
