Added DiffLines:

* UnspokenPlanGuarantee: A case where the viewer doesn't even know that there ''is'' a plan until it's already worked. Only when [[spoiler: Lily is already out on the ledge and Jen goes for the computer]] do we realise that they were working together.


Added DiffLines:

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: A couple of loose threads involving Kenton.
** After he [[spoiler: kills Sergei]], there's a cover-up, as one would expect. But when he [[spoiler: stabs Anton in the parking garage]] the incident is never referred to again in any way. [[spoiler: Given that Anton was a higher-up Russian spy and that there was VERY likely to be some record of who entered and exited that parking garage, it seems like this should have triggered some investigation for Kenton to worry about! But this never came back. Lily never even found out that he died.]]
** He goes pretty heavy on intimidating Jamie to try and scare him out of ever helping Lily again, despite having no clear proof of how much Jamie even knew to begin with. But what about ''Jen'', who he did know Lily must have told a great deal to in order to get her assistance? She disappears entirely from the story at this point. Did he do anything to her?

* PopculturalOsmosisFailure: Stewart repeatedly criticizes the devs team for creating the future while having little care for the past in terms of culture. Episode 7 has him reciting Creator/PhilipLarkin's "[[https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/48422/aubade-56d229a6e2f07 Aubade]]"; Forest and Katie just assume it's Shakespeare.
