* IgnoredEpiphany: After everything is resolved and the city is saved, Vincenzo swipes the remains of the Duke and Duchess and runs off back to his catacombs to continue cultishly worshiping them. Churchwell and Pietro are stunned at this, but the Doctor muses that something as simple as undeniable evidence that everything he knew is wrong won't shake someone from a {{Cult}} mentality, and at least Vincenzo is a relatively harmless cultist, at this point.

Churchwell's first thought is to go back to check and see how much of the Duke's art collection has survived, as the Doctor points out that some of it will have certainly been destroyed, but ultimately he decides to stay, since the paintings aren't going anywhere now.

* EquivalentExchange: Estella explains that her "magic" works on this principle, that to get something, something else must be sacrificed. The "curse" that has been keeping her and Orsino alive for over a hundred years is thus what is causing Venice to decay at an advanced rate, and the only way to stop Venice from crumbling is for her and Orsino to thus commit a HeroicSuicide.
